More than 25 children who arc participants in the Hutcherson Branch
YMCA Summer Camp Program will lour the Greenwood Cultural Center on
Monday, July 29. The lour, to be conducted by Stale Representative Don
Ross, will include a guided tour of the Mabie B. Little Heritage House and
a view of the "Black Art: Ancestral Legacy, The African Impulse in African-
American Art.” The exhibit will be on display until Aug. 7 at 322 N.
Greenwood.
"This is exciting,” said Rep. Ross. "It is the major reason fix which we
brought the exhibit to Tulsa. Our youngsters have to know and appreciate the
history and thcircullure." He called on the community, sororities, fraternities
and other organizations to begin organizing young people for lours, allowing
them to be exposed to more than 3,(XX) years of African art ami artifacts.
The photo-panel exhibit brings viewers a new understanding of African art
and culture in relation to the art and culture of African-Americans. The
exhibit is based on a major exhibiuon of art and artifacts organized for
national lounng by the Dallas Museum of Art and is developed by the Texas
Humanities Resource Center, Austin, with the support of Philip Morris
Companies Inc. LocalJy, the exhibit is sponsored by the Nixth Tulsa Heritage
Foundation.
Following the fourfold division of the majorcxhibition, it presents first the
legacy that is retained only through memory and legend, since a central pan
of the African-American legacy isexilc and enslavement. The emphasis here
is partly on works produced by trained artists who participated in the Harlem
Renaissance of the 1920s and 30s and partly on the work of self-taught folk
artists who often illustrate fables and talcs handed down in their community.
The second section, “Private Visions,” embraces works which pay heed to
inspiration, the sacred space needed for visionary work, and the spiritual
aspects of vision and art. While this sccuon seems to emphasize self-taught
artists, it also includes the work of well-educated painters and sculptors.
The third division, “Reclamations," focuses on works of artists who have
been to Africa or have traced their African identity through the way stations
of their forebears, especially Haiti, Jamaica, and the Bahamas. Here are
grouped some of the most impressive, truly gripping works of art — even in
photographs: Renee Stout’s “Fetish #2,” Lois Mailou Jones’ “Initiation-
Libena;” John Biggers’ "Shotguns;” Ed Love’s “Mask for Mingus.”
In the fourth division, "Festival and Ritual,” artists depict singing and
