The Frances M. Maguire Art Museum welcomed over 30 paintings, sculptures and other artistic works as part of the “Queens, Gods and Devotees” exhibition Sept. 26. The exhibition, featuring works from the Petrucci Family Foundation Collection of African American Art, was centered around the intersection of African American experiences and spirituality.
“Queens, Gods and Devotees” was curated by Susanna Gold, Ph.D., a Philadelphia-based curator and art advisor. Gold said the Maguire Museum stood out as a potential place to host the exhibit because it hosts other spirituality-based works.
