Dueling paintbrushes

dueling-paintbrushes
George Catlin and Karl Bodmer had very different temperaments and very different styles for documenting the same Indian villages, the same chiefs, the same sacred rituals, the same bison herds, and the same river bluffs. Catlin and Bodmer also illustrated how each tribe painted accounts of their own lives in their own styles on tipis, drums, and buffalo hides. Their paintings provide a rich visual record of the high plains at a unique time in history after Lewis and Clark but before the arrival of railways and photography. See this beautiful exhibit, Sunday at 7 p.m. at the Canyon Community Center in Springdale. Admission is free. For more information, contact Joyce Hartless of Z-Arts at joycehartless@gmail.com or (435)772-3434 x 313.
