SUMMARY:Gallery Talk with Curator Judith Altruda What is Native Art? Eugene Landry and the Creative Spirit
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Saturday October 11\, 2025 at 2pm for an informal gallery talk with Judith Altruda\, Curator of What is Native Art? Eugene Landry and the Creative Spirit. Eugene Landry (1937-1988) was a noted Northwest Native artist who painted from his wheelchair. His personal story is one of perseverance\, of an artist who created despite setbacks\, always with humor and style. In 2019\, Tokeland and Astoria based artist Judith Altruda found a large collection of Eugene Landry's art inside an unheated storage building. It had been sitting there for almost 25 years. She bought the collection to save it from ruin and was so taken with his art and life story that she wrote a book about Gene's life\, A Portrait of Gene\, an Artist\, a Time and a Tribe. She is currently working on a second book about Gene's life. Since 2019\, more art has surfaced\, from private collections and elsewhere. Like puzzle pieces\, each work expands and fills in more of Gene's story. Image: Judith Altruda\, Curator with Eugene Landry's Portrait of Nina
