The authors explore the origins of Catlin's achievement: his ambition to record what he believed to be dying cultures, and his collecting activities, educational intentions and methods of exhibition and display, which demonstrate the growth of a new sensibility towards native peoples. While Catlin's work is well known in the USA, especially in Washington DC, where most of it is still housed in the Smithsonian Institution, George Catlin's Indian Gallery will help to bring these spectacular pictures to new audiences in Britain and around the world. 0Exhibition: National Portrait Gallery, London, UK (4.3.-23.6.2013). 0. 600 10 $a Catlin, George, $d 1796-1872 $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Indians in art $v Exhibitions. 651 0 $a West (U.S.) $v Exhibitions. $v Exhibitions. 700 1 $a Troccoli, Joan Carpenter. 700 1 $a Catlin, George, $d 1796-1872. 710 2 $a National Portrait Gallery (Great Britain) 710 2 $a Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery. 710 2 $a Smithsonian American Art Museum. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213014559.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20180403031644.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7CF69EFE63F011E4A4D39B8FDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
