Eye Dazzlers, Marvels of Navajo Weavings from the Hilbert Collection

Eye Dazzlers, Marvels of Navajo Weavings from the Hilbert Collection

Presented by Hilbert Museum of California Art at Chapman University and Imagination Celebration at Hilbert Museum of California Art

The reinvented Hilbert Museum of California Art features a striking, two-building ensemble offering 26 galleries for rotating displays of the more than 5,000 oils, watercolors and drawings depicting everyday California life in the growing Hilbert Collection. It will also include a café, a community room for lectures, classes and events, a research library, and an outdoor courtyard with native gardens that create a new front door to the museum.

In our Founders Gallery of Native American Art - Eye Dazzlers: Marvels of Navajo Weavings from the Hilbert Collection - Curated by Mary Platt.  These “eye dazzler” blankets woven by Navajo women in the late 1800s and early 1900s were known for their vibrant colors, intricate patterns and bold, geometric forms – many of which seem to anticipate the work of later color-field artists and modernist painters.
