Charles Banks Wilson: An Oklahoma Life in Art

An Official Oklahoma Centennial Event.

Now through March 9, 2008.

Charles Banks Wilson is one of Oklahoma's premier artists, and his works have been collected and exhibited around the globe. Gilcrease Museum holds one of the most comprehensive collections of Wilson's work ranging from his early years as an art student and illustrator to his extensive series of Native American portraits and scenes of Oklahoma life.

Wilson's enormous talent in a variety of mediums prompted Thomas Hart Benton to declare him "America's finest artist historian."

Wilson is an accomplished illustrator, muralist, lithographer, sculptor, and teacher. His work has been widely acclaimed for its attention to detail and insightful composition.

Charles Banks Wilson: An Oklahoma Life in Art not only showcases the extensive collection of C.B. Wilson's art at Gilcrease Museum, but also includes a number of artworks from private collections - as well as several new paintings that have never been on public view.
This exhibition is made possible with the generous support of The Commonwealth; The Maxine and Jack Zarrow Family Foundation; SemGroup, LP; and the Oklahoma Arts Council.
