1. Wounded Crow
Wounded Crow
Description
This print depicts a red-breasted crow adorned with linear accents. A swatch of light blue near the crow's head creates visual interest and directs the viewer's attention to a mirror-image of the word "crow" near the top of the image., Rick Bartow; wounded crow; monoprint with mixed media; 44.25x30 inches; 1991; BARR91 (inv. 1029), The frailty of life on this planet and the need to recognize the interconnectedness of all species are common threads that weave through Bartow's work. His Yurok Indian heritage and his experiences in Vietnam are the source of these feelings and nurture his imagery. Crow/raven and a pantheon of other animals, including man, figure prominently in his work. He reanimates the ancient myths of Northwest peoples into his visual language. Once the symbol of rebirth and the spirit of all life, crow is a ghost-like figure in this monotype who knows "he" is no longer central to our lives. (OAC documentation, 1990). A Vietnam veteran and a Yurok tribal member, he addresses grief and fear in his work as means to dismantling them. His work is represented by Froelick Gallery and Stonington Gallery.
