STATE AND LOCAL
Plains Indians are
subject of exhibit
By JIM HINEY
Reporter
The Arts Council of Brazos Valley
is sponsoring a photographic exhibit
of objects crafted between 1840 and
1885 by the nomadic Indians of the
Great Plains.
The exhibit, titled “Circles of the
World,” is composed of 20 panels.
Each panel contains close-up photo
graphs of the Indian artifacts and
are arranged to illustrate the four
circles that constituted an Indian’s
life cycle — the circles of family and
home, the tribe, humanity and the
unknown.
The exhibit was put together by
the Texas Humanities Resource
Center of the University of Texas at
Arlington Library, in association
with the Denver Museum of Art and
the New Orleans Museum of Art.
Bonnie Yarbrough, executive di
rector of the arts council, says the ex
hibit goes a long way toward dispel
ling some of the stereotypes many
people have about the Plains Indi
ans. She says the stereotype ofroamB
ing savages was created by whiup
men who conquered the Indian®
during the Him century, and hap
l>een perpetuated by 20th centun®
movie makers.
Some tribes represented inthecifl
hibit, such as the Comanche, WB
chita, Waco and Tonkawa tribes,iiiB
habited Texas during the midtolanB
1800s.
The actual collection of artifac
was started by the Denver Museum
<>l Art during the early 1900s. Fra
White, administrative assistant of di
Arts Council of Brazos Valley, san
the Denver museum decided not«
let art work of native Americans dil
along with the people, so museum
officials started a drive to collectancL
preserve Indian art.
The photographic exhibit is beiri|
circulated through a grant by thfi
Texas Humanities Resource Cenin|
and will l>e shown through May2!i
the B ra/.os Center. Group toursait|^
available.
