One of the pleasures of summer is catching up on exhibitions. I was lucky to see the "
Faith Ringgold: American People" show at the New Museum, a few days before it closed. And today I saw the largely overlooked exhibition "
Dakota Modern: The Art of Oscar Howe" at the National Museum of the American Indian. Much of interest and beauty in both, even thangkas by Ringgold and abstractions by Howe!
