Humor is essential, these days. If I
not for humor, we would all have
ulcers. I lumor helps us heal.
Indian humor is as unique as it is i
helpful. The newest show
currently on display at The i
Museum At Warm Springs
proves the point and provides a
great antacid for life's bitter
experiences. I
The "Indian I lumor" exhibit )
opened January 24 and will be on '
display until mid-March when
me Children s Art Show begins.
The exhibit features paintings,
sculptures, paper mache' works,
bead work and other mixed
media. Though some pieces of
work may be beyond one's realm
of understanding, the pieces
show that life can, and should, be
taken with a very large grain of
salt.
Visitors should take their time in
the exhibit as the subtlty can
catch one off guard. To make sure
all entries are seen, multiple visits
may be necessary.
Museum staff members and
registrar Eraina Palmer
coordinated the show which is on
loan from the National Touring
Exhibition organizated by
America Indian Contemporary
Art.
