“HAUDENOSAUNEE”
ART OF THE NOW
Survive, Alive, Thrive |
|
Our current show “HAUDENOSAUNEE" ART OF THE NOW, Survive, Alive, Thrive, is now in the Peg Bothner Gallery at TCAC! The show will run through Saturday, July 1st! This group celebrates the unique traditions and experiences of each Artist in Resident (AiR) at the Seneca Iroquois National Museum. From bead working and basket making to sewing and painting, the pieces showcase cultural survival, living heritage and individuals thriving in their creativity. Artists live and work in both Allegany and Cattaraugus territories. These artists make regalia for family and friends. They regularly sell at local fairs and artist markets. They are community teachers and experts at their craft. Many have exhibited at Seneca Iroquois National Museum, Iroquois Museum/Howes Cave, and Ganondagan. A few works have found a home in the National Museum of the American Indian's permanent collection. Featured Artists:
Allegany Territory: Penny Minner, Alicia Sanford, Kristina Torne, and Leeora Saraphine White. Cattaraugus Territory: Samantha Jacobs, Lorinda John, Bernadette Scott, Antoinette “Toni” Scott |
