Research notes and documentation for Shared visions: Native American painters and sculptors in the twentieth century, an exhibition curated by Margaret Archuleta and Rennard Strickland. Shared visions exhibits the works of major artists of the twentieth century Native American Fine Art Movement. Emphasis is placed upon artists who helped to shape the movement and whose work influenced the direction of American Indian painting and sculpture. Individual works were selected to represent the depth and diversity of Native American arts and artists. Art works range from the early narrative paintings of Carl Sweezy (Arapaho, 1881-1953) and Ernest Spybuck (Shawnee, 1883-1949), to a series of works on the topic of "encounter and response executed in 1990 for this exhibition." Shared visions, therefore, reflects the changing world of the American Indian artist as that world unfolded throughout the twentieth century-- from "The way people were meant to live: the shared visions of twentieth century Native American painters and sculptors," Dr. Rennard Strickland and Margaret Archuleta, in the catalogue to the exhibition, p. 5. The exhibition premiered at the Heard Museum in Phoenix, Arizona, April 13, 1991. After closing on July 28, 1991, it toured to the Eiteljorg Museum of American History and Western Art, Indianapolis, Indiana; The Thomas Gilcrease Institute of American History and Art, Tulsa, Oklahoma; The Oregon Art Institute, Portland Art Museum, Portland, Oregon; and The National Museum of the American Indian, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC.
