P I E R S O N G A L L E R Y: American Fine Art Boston Avenue Frame On Historic Cherry Street at South Peoria and 15th 1311 East 15th - Tulsa OK 74120 EMAIL US
Linda Stone, Curator of Art, at Woolaroc Museum & Wildlife Preserve, lstone@woolaroc.org. www.woolaroc.org, in conjunction with Pierson Gallery (Linda Pierson) in Tulsa, is pleased to present a new temporary exhibit for their guests, “Native Visions—20th Century Oklahoma Indian Art”.The works will be on exhibit in the Silas Bunkhouse Gallery through October 31, 2011.
As early as the last decades of the 19th century, Native artists had already begun making works in media like pencil, crayon, ink or watercolor on paper, depicting their daring exploits and experiences in vivid, graphic compositions. Since the turn of the twentieth century, the vitality of the early narrative style has been transformed by succeeding generations to include a broad spectrum of culturally significant content—from romantic illustrations of tribal life on the unfenced plains of yesterday to subjects dealing with modern-day development; from scenes of evolving tribal social activities to native religious symbolism.
Curator of Art Linda Stone said “For many years, we have wanted to have an exhibit featuring strictly Native American art.Thanks to Linda Pierson at Pierson Gallery and many private collectors who loaned us their treasures, that wish has become reality.We are honored to be able to share such an exhibit with the guests of Woolaroc.” The exhibit features the works of well-known artists such as Jerome Tiger and Acee Blue Eagle as well as lesser known but equally talented artists.
Woolaroc, is located 12 miles SW of Bartlesville on Highway 123.Woolaroc Fall/Winter schedule is Wednesday thru Sunday, 10 am to 5 pm and closed on Monday and Tuesday.Admission is $8 for adults, $6 for 65 and over and children 11 and under are free.
