The Great Sioux Horse Effigy was recently returned to the Cultural Heritage Center after being featured in “The Plains Indians: Artists of Earth and Sky,” an international touring exhibition that was showcased in Paris and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
South Dakota Public Broadcasting Television will air the celebration at 2 p.m. CST. The event included presentations by Kevin Gover, director of the National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, D.C., and Gaylord Torrence, senior curator of American Indian Art at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri.
Torrence was one of the chief curators involved in the touring exhibition.
