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.
