The Charles and Valerie Diker Collection at the Heard Museum

These examples reflect the achievements of five master artists: Rhonda Holy Bear, Joyce Growing Thunder, Juanita Growing Thunder Fogarty, Jessa Rae growing Thunder, and Jamie Okuma. This publication was inspired by this transformative gift.
The sculptural figures that he Dikers assembled comprise a singular collection in the world of contemporary American Indian art. it would be impossible to replicate. The figures reflect customary cultural practices, including painting on hide and sewing with porcupine quills and glass beads, but at such a transcendent level that they are world-class works of art.
