2014 Native Art Market.
NATION TO NATION: TREATIES BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES AND AMERICAN INDIAN NATIONS Through Fall 2018 Fourth Level Nation to Nation examines treaty-making between American Indians and European powers, and between American Indians and the nascent United States, when those treaties were serious diplomatic nation-to-nation agreements based on the recognition of each nation’s sovereignty. The exhibition then ex- amines the shift in U.S. policy toward Indians and the way the United States subsequently used treaties to gain land as it expanded westward. The exhibition ends by examining important 20th
century legislation upholding
American Indian treaty rights. More than 125 objects from the Museum’s collection and other lenders, including origi- nal treaties, archival photographs, wampum belts, textiles, baskets and peace medals will be featured.
An original treaty, on loan from the National Archives for six months, will be installed in the exhibition through February 2016: Horse Creek Treaty (The Great Smoke; Fort Laramie Treaty; Treaty of Long Meadows) among the Arapaho, Arikara, Assiniboine, Cheyenne, Crow, Hidatsa, Mandan and Sioux Nations and with the United States, 1851.
