Artist Hopes to Break Indian Stereotypes in Salina Show
Salina artist Harley Elliott, education coordinator at the Salina Art Center, showcases 11 of his 100 Citizens series at Bluestem Gallery through Jan 6. The works present abstract mask like forms with real flint arrowhead motifs inspired by names such as Mysterious Walking and Fight the Bear to challenge Hollywood Indian clichés and reveal individuality. Elliott describes Indians as real people with noble, foolish, and jerks alike and notes strong sales despite minimal marketing.
