The talk, titled "Colorful Oklahoma: Paul Reed, Leon Polk Smith, and Benjamin Harjo, Jr.," will focus on these three accomplished and groundbreaking artists. This event is presented in conjunction with Paul Reed: A Retrospective at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art. It explores Reed’s vibrant works on paper alongside the bold visual styles of Oklahoma’s own Leon Polk Smith and Benjamin Harjo, Jr. Hale will start the discussion and guide guests through the connections, contrasts, and creative influences among these celebrated artists. This insightful event presents a rare opportunity to delve into Oklahoma’s rich artistic heritage through themes of color, form, and cultural expression.
