The work of nine Native American artists from Idaho,
Oregon and Washington will be on display at the High Desert Museum
in Bend, Ore., for the next nine months. The show, called Rising
From Tradition: Contemporary Native Art from the Plateau, features
traditional work such as coiled baskets and woven cornhusk belts
and pouches, but it has been rendered in decidedly modern ways. The
High Desert Museum is at 59800 S. Highway 97, Bend, OR 97702-7963
(541/382-4754).
