Museum Studies 1: Sherrie Levine
October 23, 1993 - November 28, 1993
Beginning on October 23rd, the Museum will inaugurate its new program of contemporary projects, entitled "Museum Studies," with an
unusual installation by the artist Sherrie Levine. The "Museum Studies" program is designed as an ongoing series of new works and
installations created by artists specifically for the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Sherrie Levine plans to exhibit six new sculptures in
translucent white glass based on Brancusi's marble sculpture
in the Museum's collection. Each glass "head" will be displayed on
top of a grand piano in the Museum's Great Stair Hall, a dramatic site that welcomes visitors entering from the city side of the building.
