Description
Highlights of the exhibition include Reid’s monumental masterpiece, "Mythic Messengers," a 28-foot bronze frieze that until now has been relatively unknown. As well, there is a new monumental pole featuring the Wasgo, or Haida Sea-Wolf, carved by James Hart and celebrating Reid, his mentor. "Restoring Enchantment," a new gallery dedicated solely to the gold and silver masterworks of Reid, features the latest masterwork to be donated to the Bill Reid Foundation Collection: a massive gold men’s cuff bracelet deeply carved by Reid with a beaver and an eagle. Gallery hours: 10:30 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Friday, 11 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. For more information on Reid and his art, go to www.billreidfoundation.org.
