Exhibition Title: "Ric Glazer-Danay 1990-1994: One Man Exhibition" Date: Sept. 16 to Nov. 4 Where: C.N. Gorman Museum 1316 Hart Hall University of California, Davis Hours: Noon to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and by appointment Reception: 6-8 p.m. Friday, Sept. 16 Artist: Ric Glazer-Danay The C.N. Gorman Museum opens the 1994-95 academic year with a one-man exhibition of new works by UC Davis alumnus Ric Glazer-Danay. Originally from the Caughnawaga Mohawk Nation in Quebec, Canada, Glazer-Danay returns to campus with new works completed while he held the Rupert Costo Chair in American Indian History from 1991-1993 at UC Riverside. The Costo Chair is the first in the nation endowed by Native Americans. It was created to advance scholarly interest and research concerning American Indians and to help remove barriers of bigotry, prejudice and misunderstanding. During his two-year residency, Glazer-Danay completed more than 60 acrylic works on paper and canvas, as well as sculptures. Glazer-Danay's works are known for their biting wit and irony. For example, "What Goes Around," a 30" x 40" acrylic collage, shows a color photograph of a young Native woman dressed in buckskin in one corner and a black-and-white image of Christopher Columbus by Malaquias Montoya in the opposite corner. The words "What Goes Around, Comes Around" are painted in red dots and separate the two figures. Glazer-Danay now teaches painting and drawing in the California State University, Long Beach, art department. He is a member of the Indian Arts and Crafts Board of the U.S. Department of the Interior. His work is in the permanent collections of the British Museum, Museum of Mankind, London, England; Museum Fur Volkerkunde, Hamburg, Germany; C.N. Gorman Museum; Seneca Iroquois National Museum, New York, N.Y; Woodlands Cultural Centre, Brantford, Canada; and the Washington State Arts Commission, Seattle, Wash. In 1978, Glazer-Danay was the first Native American master of fine arts graduate from the UC Davis art department. Glazer-Danay exhibited his graduate work at the C.N. Gorman Museum. During the 1979-80 academic year, Glazer-Danay served as acting director for the Gorman Museum. The C.N. Gorman Museum was founded in 1973 and is named in honor of Carl Nelson Gorman, a retired Native American Studies faculty member, advocate of Native American art and member of the Navaho Nation. This exhibition is supported by the Department of Native American Studies and the California Art Council's Multicultural Entry Grant Program. The exhibition is free and open to the public.
