A massive, majestic bison dominates two new exhibits in the Field Museum’s Hall of Native North Americans. The bison, a familiar icon in the hall, is now incorporated as part of the pair of exhibits that\u00a0 glimpse into Native American art today and re-contextualize the past. Detailed illustrations by Chris Pappan, attached to the bison’s case, highlight the\u00a0 grandeur of the animal’s movement in contrast to the taxidermied specimen.<\/p>\n

Drawing on Tradition: Kanza Artist Chris Pappan.\u00a0<\/em><\/a> and Full Circle\/Omani Wakan: Lakota Artist Rhonda Holy Bear<\/em><\/a> are on exhibit through Jan. 13, 2019, with both artists presenting a 2016 iteration of their ancestral art.<\/p>\n

Though they share a physical space, the two artists differ quite greatly in terms of their materials, intentions, and even their relationship with the Field Museum itself.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cLiving in Chicago almost all Native people know of this hall and have been here, and we all have our own reactions to it,\u201d Pappan says. \u201cI think the fact that it doesn\u2019t have anything that alludes to contemporary people is what I found most depressing. When school groups come through the docents talk about how Native Americans \u2018used to do this\u2019 and \u2018used to do that.’\u201d<\/p>\n

But Holy Bear finds the collection to be a continued source of inspiration during her decades as an artist and a Chicago native.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m very attached to this permanent collection, I spent a lot of years researching [it],\u201d Holy Bear says. \u201cIt meant a lot to me, the name of my exhibit is \u2018Full Circle.\u2019 This is where I studied when I was very young, and now I\u2019m a mature woman and an artist with 36 years worth of work, and it was just a tremendous opportunity to be able to complete this circle and part of my journey.\u201d<\/p>\n

By using the traditional tools and iconography of their ancestors, both Pappan and Holy Bear expand the perceptions of Native American art as thriving. They present a powerful visual contrast to the rows of display cases featuring traditional Native American clothing, tools, and artwork from the past that serve as the hall\u2019s staples.<\/p>\n

In one particularly powerful piece by Pappan, a stirring image of a Native American grandmother is layered atop a display case filled with spears and weaponry.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen [these items] were originally collected the presumption was that these cultures were going away, and the purpose of the collections and the way they were staged was to celebrate something that was leaving,\u201d says Justin B. Richland, a co-curator of the exhibit and associate professor of anthropology at the University of Chicago. \u201cWell, it turns out their demise was greatly exaggerated, they\u2019re still here, and it\u2019s time to rethink what these kinds of exhibition stages and platforms should be for.\u201d<\/p>\n

Holy Bear\u2019s exhibit includes beaded sculptures and figures she\u2019s crafted throughout her storied career, paired with pieces from the Field Museum that have inspired her work. Her works are an update on the dolls that used to be given to Native children by her ancestors. Pappan\u2019s drawings and paintings are in the format of Native American ledger art, which consisted of pictorial narratives that were traditionally painted on animal hides. Both artists draw from the existing exhibit, albeit in starkly different ways.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have Rhonda, an incredible artist who relies heavily on the traditions of her community, the Lakota people, and also draws on the ethnographic collection here for inspiration,\u201d says Richland. \u201cBy comparison you have Chris, who also takes inspiration from the collection, but as a way to comment on and reflect on how in some ways it\u2019s both an inspiration and a distortion of how people perceive Native people today.\u201d<\/p>\n

Their varying appraisals of the hall show clear influences on their work. Pappan\u2019s modern updates on traditional ledger art, presented as additions to some of the museum\u2019s permanent displays, portray another side of the culture and emphasize issues of identity politics and philosophy.<\/p>\n

\u201cGoing to Native art school you learn about the history of [ledger art] and what it comes from, and I just kind of stumbled upon a contemporary, unused ledger book and thought, \u2018Maybe this could be a new thing for me,\u2019 Pappan explains. \u201cIn my work I took on the responsibility of being a ledger artist and taking it upon myself to further the tradition and move it forward and adapt it to a contemporary mindset.\u201d<\/p>\n

Holy Bear notes that the biggest difference between her sculptures and their ancestral counterparts is that her works are intentionally stationary but still tell stories.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere my people are from there aren\u2019t a lot of trees, and because they are a nomadic people they didn\u2019t do things more on the level of sculpture, because that would be a lot of hauling around and it demands permanence,\u201d Holy Bear explains. \u201cIn the direction that I\u2019m moving, I\u2019m starting to tell the stories that go along with [the figures] – the creation stories and ideas that I get of how I want to convey a story. I use my figures now just like a fine artist would use sculpture.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ultimately, despite their differing opinions on the hall itself,\u00a0 Pappan and Holy Bear say that the platform they have to change and expand perceptions of Native American art is humbling.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a huge responsibility to express a contemporary view of Native people today in the Field Museum,\u201d says Pappan.<\/p>\n
