Behind the Scenes

Native American Art at Dartmouth

Five years in the making, Native American Art at Dartmouth: Highlights from the Hood Museum of Art (October 8, 2011, through March 11, 2012) surveys the breadth and depth of the Hood's permanent collection of indigenous art from North America, from the historical to the contemporary. This slideshow depicts the installation of over 150 objects in progress. Guest curators George Horse Capture, Joe Horse Capture, and Joseph Sanchez each contributed unique experiences and perspectives in the presentation of the Hood's varied holdings of Native art. These pictures were taken over a four-week period and show the exhibition from start to finish.
