The American Indian Community House Gallery is pleased to present, ?Long Road Home,? a two-person exhibition featuring the work of Frank Mitchell (Cherokee/Blackfoot) from Iowa City, Iowa and Renzo Spirit Buffalo (Lakota) of New York City. Both artists work in a variety of media including photography and painting as well as video and mixed media installation. Mitchell, who received his MFA from the University of Iowa in Multimedia/Intermedia, creates work that intentionally walks the line between high and low, between clunky and slick. His nocturne paintings embody this duality by fusing a goth sensibility with traditionally sentimental subjects like children or animals. Spirit Buffalo, a multi-media artist originally from South Dakota, has worked professionally in film and fashion photography. This exhibition will feature, ReZervations, USA, a multi-media installation which documents his ongoing cross-country journey through Indian communities across the nation. Using the road sign as a point of entry, Spirit Buffalo invites the audience to join him on his quintessential American road trip, exploring these communities and their complexities as both an insider and outsider.
