The Stories They Tell: Indigenous Art & Photography by Edward S. Curtis

Material culture goes beyond the relationship between people and things, it informs a way of knowing. Utilizing photogravures specific to Indigenous material culture by Edward S. Curtis as a starting gate, this exhibition displays correlating Native art from the 20th and 21st centuries. The show is presented in three sections: Southwest Pueblo pottery, California basketry, and Northwest Coast carving and textiles. Each section reflects on how objects harbor memories and tell stories about a time, a place, and a people.

This exhibition is organized by The James Museum of Western & Wildlife Art.
