CHARLES M. RUSSELL: STORYTELLER ACROSS MEDIA

At the heart of Charles Marion Russell’s art is storytelling. Over his more than forty-year career, Russell chronicled his beloved west through the stories he told across paper, canvas, bronze, and truly any material he could find. While Russell made art that was for sale, he also made many works that were intended for close friends, as well as thank you notes for both gifts and hospitality received on travels. A group of works made specifically as part of his friendship with certain individuals will be featured in the exhibit including the artist’s sketch box and a sculpture self-portrait made of wax and mixed media. Free admission.
