Onya LaTour: Pioneering Modern Art in Indiana
Continuing through May 10, 2015
Gallery of the Art of the Western World, Doris Steinmetz Kellett Endowed Gallery of Twentieth-Century Art, first floor
In 1941 Onya LaTour opened the Indiana Museum of Modern Art near Nashville, Indiana, creating a stir in local art circles. Two works from her personal collection are featured in this installation presented in conjunction with Onya LaTour on view at the Indianapolis Museum of Art this fall, to which the IU Art Museum loaned four pieces.
Focalpoint: Traditional Changes: Art from the American Southwest
Continuing through February 15, 2015
What does it mean to call an object “traditional” or “authentically Native American”? Explore these questions through examples of basketry, ceramics, textiles, and jewelry that came into being as a result of interactions with other Native American groups, contact with non-Native admirers and markets, or particular happenstances in a community’s history. Organized by Emma Kessler, curatorial assistant for the arts of Africa, the South Pacific, and the Americas.
