Indepth Arts News: "Symbols of Faith and Belief: Art of the Native American Church" 2000-07-22 until 2000-09-17 Minneapolis Institute of Arts Minneapolis, MN, USA
The traditional expressive forms of
beadwork, carving, metalsmithing and featherwork
were combined to produce exquisite fans, rattles,
drumsticks, jewelry, ritual staffs and other ceremonial
objects used during the services of the Church. An
understanding of the emergence of forms provides insight into the changing nature of
American Indian life and art during the 20th century.
This exhibition has been organized by the Gilcrease Museum, Tulsa, Oklahoma with
support from the Phillips Petroleum Company, Founders and Associates, Inc., and
the State Arts Council of Oklahoma.
