King Returns To Oklahoma Museum Work
This will be Duane King's second museum administration job in Oklahoma. In 1982, he was hired as executive director of
the Cherokee National Historical Society in Tahlequah, where he remained for five years.
His administrative career has been primarily with museums devoted to the art and culture of American Indians. King was
assistant director of the George Gustav Heye Center of the National Museum of the American Indian from 1990 to
1995, overseeing that Smithsonian Institution facility in its move from upper to lower Manhattan.
Until taking the Gilcrease position, King was executive director of the Southwest Museum of the American Indian and
was instrumental in working out the partnership by which the museum became a part of the Autry National Center in
Los Angeles.    Read the
Tulsa World story.

''Broken Chains,'' by Tuscarora/Cherokee artist
Mathew Barkhausen III, starts the collection off
with an Indian man breaking free from a set of
manacles. This work sets the tone of many of the
others that break free of the conventions that try
to keep Native art confined.
