The Art of Ezra Tucker
July 10 - September 7, 2025
Tour Produced by David J. Wagner, L.L.C., David J. Wagner, Ph.D., Curator/Tour Director
In this first traveling exhibition of artworks by Ezra Tucker, the untold stories of the Black experience in the history of the American West are depicted alongside monumental and dramatic paintings of North American wildlife and examples of allegory, fantasy, illustration, and narrative.
With a background in commercial illustration and design, Tucker combines his exceptional drafting skills with earth tones and warm light to give his subjects the glow of an old master’s work. Visitors will see Tucker’s hallmark ability to achieve a bold, romantic look by using a color palette and lighting that is familiar yet new.

With a special focus exhibit, from the collection of Suzanne Sugg, Chinese children’s hats and other headwear from around the world.
The Global Language of Headwear: Cultural Identity, Rites of Passage, and Spirituality presents 89 hats and headdresses carefully selected from a private collection of more than 1300 extraordinary pieces of headwear from all over the world.
This exhibition features headwear from 42 countries across Asia, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, and North and South America, and is a tribute to the stunning diversity of the world’s cultures. With a few exceptions, the pieces are from the mid-to-late 20th century, and many are still worn today in parts of the world for revelry, ritual, and the rhythms of everyday life. More than utilitarian objects of material culture, each hat is a unique work of art—not merely because of the skill required to make it, but also as a singular expression of creativity and cultural meaning.
