The
Color Me Barbra Tour of the Philadelphia Museum of Art
Color
Me
Who?
The staff of the Philadelphia
Museum of Art was very helpful in providing information about
some of the artists who created the masterpieces featured in
Color Me Barbra, and also in mapping out their
locations within the museum. But amazingly, the connection
between Barbra and the magnificent museum was lost on the present day
employees. Not one person I spoke with knew that Barbra
Streisand had taped a television special right in their own
museum.
As a follow-up to our visit, I forwarded a tape of
Color Me Barbra to one of the very helpful museum curators. With the museum's newfound revelation,
maybe we can expect a special Color Me Barbra
exhibition sometime soon.
We hope your
"virtual" walk through the Philadelphia Museum of
Art will inspire you to seek out these, or other
works of art at a museum near you.
Shooting Color Me Barbra in the Philadelphia
Museum was inspired. We were not only entertained
musically, but were offered up a bit of art
history as well. May your next viewing of Color Me Barbra be all the more enriched.
