2 l What to eat, see & do in Wichita

“Crossroads: The Art of Gordon Parks” celebrates the life work of one of America’s most accomplished 20th-century artists . The exhibition of black-and-white and color photography by the Kansas photographer, writer, composer and filmmaker will be on display at the Ulrich Museum of Art at WSU from Jan . 23-April 11 .

The exhibit combines a national travel-ing exhibition with photographs from the collections of the Ulrich Museum, KU’s Spencer Museum of Art, and the Kansas

African-American Museum as well as never-before-seen documents and artifacts from the Gordon Parks Papers housed in WSU’s Special Collections .

Parks found that a camera was the best way to pursue social justice and combat inequality . The exhibition shows his range of subjects: from the train station and ball park in his hometown of Fort Scott to the streets of Paris at night as well as portrayals of poverty and iconic portraits of Muhammad Ali and Duke Ellington .

The 15th child of poor black tenant farm-ers in Fort Scott, Parks was a self-taught photographer who began his career working for the Farm Security Administration in Washington, D .C ., and went on to become the first black staff photographer at LIFE magazine, producing powerful photo essays for more than 20 years . Parks’ work with photographs led to film, and the artist wrote and directed such notable movies as “The Learning Tree” (based on his autobiogra-phy) and “Shaft .” In addition, he wrote fic-tion, nonfiction and poetry, and composed the music for “Martin,” a ballet honoring

Martin Luther King, Jr .Lectures and special events in conjunc-

tion with the exhibition include (at Ulrich Museum unless otherwise specified):

An exhibition of works by Norman Rock-well, who translated the hopes and dreams of an American generation onto canvas, will be on display at the Wichita Art Museum March 7-May 30 . “American Chronicles: The Art of Norman Rockwell” includes 40 oil paintings and pencil works from the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Mass .

Rockwell honed his pictorial storytelling skills while creating illustrations for maga-zines . His nostalgic paintings set in an often-idealized America propelled him from the stable of Saturday Evening Post illustrators to being recognized as one of the country’s best loved and most recognized artists .

Rockwell was a visual storyteller whose paintings reflected 65 years of American culture . The exhibition traces the evolu-tion of his art from his painted reflections on childhood innocence to the realities of a segregated South .

Included are some of the artist’s signa-ture works: “No Swimming,” “Christmas Homecoming” and “Triple Self-Portrait,” as well as his depiction of school desegrega-tion, “The Problem We All Live With .” Also included are images of his Saturday Evening Post covers, which played a large part in popularizing his work .

A reception for the Rockwell exhibition is planned for Final Friday March 26 . The museum is open daily except Monday . Admission is free on Saturdays . Call 268-4921 for more information .

Old Cowtown finishes log cabin restoration

Five months of restoration was completed on a 19th-century log cabin and dedicated at Old Cowtown Museum last fall . The cabin is considered one of the top 10 intact structures in the country from the settlement period, according to David Flask, Cowtown execu-tive director .

“It is also one of our best documented properties because it was photographed, measured and sketched and all of its parts were numbered before it was dismantled and brought here,” he said .

The top 10 ranking was given to the cabin by Douglass C . Reed of Preservation Associates in Hagerstown, Md ., who origi-nally assessed the structure in 2002 . Reed is a nationally known preservationist, author and historian .

The Cowtown board funded and oversaw efforts to move the Heller Cabin from Elmo, Kan . to Cowtown, and return it as closely as possible to its original state . The 1870s cabin, located just behind the Visitor’s

Norman Rockwell: Chronicling America in Art

4 l What to eat, see & do in Wichita4 l What to eat, see & do in Wichita

Center, was donated to Cowtown by the estate of Wichita resident Donna B . Heller .

The cabin was built by Civil War veteran Leonhard Hoffman, who expertly cut and pieced the logs together . Aspects of its construction, including notching and floor-ing, are different from that of Cowtown’s Munger House or the Trapper’s Cabin, both of which are log cabins built during the same time period in Sedgwick County .

Cowtown hours until April 15 are 10 a .m . to 4 p .m . Tuesday-Saturday, and after that are 9:30 a .m . to 4:30 p .m . Wednes-day-Saturday and noon to 4 p .m . Sunday . Civil War Weekend is planned for April 17-18, and Celebrate America, a traditional Independence Day event, will be July 3 .

For more info, visit oldcowtown .org or call 219-1871 .

The newly restored Heller Cabin was opened last fall at Old Cowtown, an accredited living-history museum.
