Washington: National Collection of Fine Arts / Smithsonian Institution Press, 1975. Softcover. VG. Spring green paper stapled wraps. 39 pp. 2 color, 41 bw illustrations. Issued in conjunction with several 1975 exhibitions of artwork by painters who "were all associated with the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts as students, and some as teachers. ... Each developed very much in his own way, and some felt the need to find a median between the new and the traditional. But as a group they reflect well the kind of impact that the new ideas had on artists trained at one of the oldest art schools of America." (foreword) With a foreword by Adelyn D. Breeskin, and essays by Joshua C. Taylor and Richard J. Boyle. The illustrated catalogue lists 43 works by 8 artists, and presents them in artist order: Hugh H. Breckenridge (6), Arthur B.
