Art reveals history Show lets artists bring back the past By Travina ColemanPhoenix Features Writer “Some time we get pieces and it is difficult to arrange,” she said. “Some of them are very disjointed and hard to put together in display.”
Historical accuracy is a key point for the judges who critique the works. “It is important that the work possess traditional subject matter,” Stroud said. “We want a picture of what life was like for our people then and now.” Robinson said all the pieces in the show are fully functional items. “The long bow that is in the show is ready to be strung and used,” she said. “There is also jewelry, clothing and pottery that is traditional and beautiful and of course can be used.” The art is on sale now through April. If you go WHAT: Art Under the Oaks Art Show and awards reception. WHEN: 2 p.m. reception with the show open through April. WHERE: Five Civilized Tribes Museum. COST: Reception is open to the public at no charge. INFORMATION: 683-1701.
