To open the museum’s 75th anniversary season, Ameri- can Indian Painting: Twenti- eth-Century Masters will bring to the Columbia River Gorge a collection of 35 paintings of a type seldom — if ever — exhibited in the Pa- cific Northwest. Curated by Maryhill’s Steve Grafe, the exhibition, which features some of the most important American Indian artists of the 20th century, will be on view March 15, 2015 through July 5, 2015. The featured artists were residents of the Southern Plains and Southwest, and affiliated with the University of Oklahoma, Bacone Col- lege and the Santa Fe Studio; they include Ste phen Mopope (Kiowa), Allan Houser (Chiricahua Apache), F red Beaver (Creek/Seminole), Jerome Tiger (Creek/Seminole), Harrison Begay (Navajo) and Tony Da (San Ildefonso). All of the paintings are drawn from the collections of the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Okla- homa City. In addition to American Indian Painting: Twentieth- Century Masters, the muse- um will mount a full season of special exhibitions in 2015. These include: honed his skill in Morris’ unique techniques and learned to create sculptural glass. Drawing inspiration from nature, specifically the San Juan Islands where he grew up, Skyriver primarily sculpts marine creatures, ex- ploring the connections be- tween humans, animals and the environment that binds us. Native Peoples of The Dalles Region The exhibition features twenty-plus photo prints, the majority of which are from Maryhill Museum of Art’s own archives. These little- known images are the work of various Wasco County photographers who captured images of the landscape and people who lived in and around The Dalles during the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. Included in the exhibition are photos by F red Andrew “F.A.” Young (Shaniko, OR), Fannie Wright Van Duyn (Tygh Val- ley, OR), Benjamin A. Gifford (The Dalles, OR), and Ben- jamin C. Markham (The Dalles, OR). Maryhill Favorites: R.H. Gammell and His Students The ongoing vitality of HOOD RIVER NEWS (ISSN 07465823) is published twice weekly, every Wednesday and Saturday.
