In the Eye of the Beholder 

In the Eye of the Beholder spotlights the recent gifts of two eminent collectors of Philadelphia artists, painter Bill Scott and activist Bob Schoenberg (d. 2021). The works on display reveal aspects of goodness and/or beauty that the artists have found in the human body, the city, the natural world, and in abstract forms. These qualities further witness the social causes that Scott and Schoenberg have championed—mentorship of younger artists and LGBTQ+ rights, respectively—showing that their support of Philadelphia artists has also strengthened our city.
