The exhibit "Eagle Village: Selected Photographs by Sheila Nadimi" is showing at the Brigham City Museum of Art and History through May 9th Museum hours are from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. daily.
This exhibit explores the spaces and the artworks that defined the Intermountain Inter-Tribal Indian School, which operated in Brigham City from 1950-1984. Based on Sheila Nadimi’s beautiful and informative book, Eagle Village: A Deep Mapping of Fallow Architecture, this exhibit centers the students’ artwork that defined the hallways, classrooms, and dorm rooms of the largest Bureau of Indian Affairs boarding school in the United States.
With the buildings now demolished, very few of these artworks remain. Nadimi’s photographs present an unflinching and at times haunting perspective on the art, its absence, and the political realities that define the landscape they inhabited.The exhibit will also feature a selection of artwork and ephemera from IIS students now held in the collection of the Brigham City Museum of Art and History.
