The beat of the American Indian culture is immediately felt when entering the exhibit. This becomes clear when learning that Jeffrey Gibson is a member of the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians and half Cherokee. These gorgeous abstracts are painted on deer hide and are faceted in every way. They sing like brilliant jewels.
Thanks to the Shoshanna Wayne Gallery http://www.bergamotstation.com/gallery.php?id=109266&bg=shoshana-wayne-gallery# for allowing me to photograph and share these images of the paintings.
