NOW OPEN: “Dakota Modern: The Art of Oscar Howe” presents over 40 years of the artist’s career. Howe (1915–1983) advocated for art that was simultaneously modern and rooted in Očhéthi Šakówiŋ (Sioux) culture. Organized by the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian (@smithsoniannmai) and Portland Art Museum and accompanied by an exhibition catalogue. On view through May 14. Join us Sunday, October 30 at 2 p.m. for the opening program, “Team Howe,” with exhibition curator Kathleen Ash-Milby, Bill Anthes (Pitzer College), Christina Burke (Philbrook Museum of Art), and John Lukavic (Denver Art Museum) as they discuss bringing the exhibition and publication to life.
