This premiere retrospective highlights the compelling career of artist Lone Wolf (Hart M. Schultz; 1883-1970), whose artwork bridged the diverse cultures of the Old and New West. The exhibition features a selection of Lone Wolf’s paintings, rare sculptures, illustrated books and ephemera that illuminate his contributions as a contemporary Blackfeet Indian artist and one of the first American Indian artists to paint in an academic style. It also discusses his significant role in capturing the accounts of the individuals and events that shaped the American frontier during the first half of the 20th century.
Closed on Mondays.
Curt treats the blank page as a mini-theater, a place where narratives unfold as a drawing takes shape. From a group of random forms, what once appeared to be a pillow on a bed may prove to be a valiant knight, saving a child from monsters.

For over three decades, Yale Strom has been one of the world’s leading ethnographer-artists of klezmer music, history and culture. Since he began in 1981, Strom has been composing his own New Jewish music, which combines klezmer with Khasidic nigunim , Roma, jazz, classical, Balkan and Sephardic motifs. He composed original music for the Denver Center production of Tony Kushner’s The Dybbuk. He also composed all the New Jewish music for the National Public Radio series Fiddlers, Philosophers & Fools: Jewish Short Stories from the Old World to the New, hosted by Leonard Nimoy, His many recordings run the gamut of traditional klezmer to “new” Jewish music and have appeared on Top Ten, Year’s Best and critically acclaimed lists across North America.
Strom is also a compelling educator. He is an artist-in-residence in the Jewish Studies Program at San Diego State University, a position that was created for him. His research has resulted in books, documentary films, CD recordings, plays and photo-exhibitions that have been seen and heard all over the world.
He will play locally with his wife Elizabeth as well as the Rural Street Klezmer Band. Formed in 2002, this group consists of musicians from throughout the Phoenix area and is currently based out of Temple Emanuel in Tempe
