The Alaska State Museum
announces two new online exhibits:
“Nicholas Galanin: The
State of Being, Displaced”
Nick Galanin, a Sitka-born
Tlingit artist, understands that being part Alaska Native and part non-Native
means that his world cannot be so clearly defined. Through his different
mediums of art, such as video, monotype, prints, masks and paper, Nick
expresses himself and the intertwined cultures in which he was raised. The exhibit
may be viewed at: museums.alaska.gov/online_exhibits/nick_galanin_2013.html
Galanin’s videos are
available at: www.youtube.com/user/ngalanin/videos
“Tommy Joseph: Rainforest
Warriors (Tlingit Armor)”
Tommy Joseph is a Tlingit
artist who has been carving since the third grade. Amongst his carvings, Tommy
has carved a lot of Tlingit armor that is representative of the Battle of 1804
that took place in Sitka. His online exhibit can be viewed at: http://museums.alaska.gov/online_exhibits/tommy_joseph_2013.html
