The Dowell sisters are twins. They work collaboratively as a unit to produce artwork. They were separated by nine minutes at birth. They were not students of Marko Fields, however, his work was an influence on them. A student-teacher relationship can happen at a distance as well as in the classroom.
Marko Fields got his BFA from the University of Kansas and his MFA from Kansas State University. His work is featured in numerous public and private collections, and has appeared in national clay magazines. Visit his website: www.markofields.com/.

First National Bank of Topeka
1932
The First National Bank of Topeka opened it newest building on June 5, 1932. It was the only example of an Art Deco skyscraper in Topeka.
In these pictures of opening day, you can see many Art Deco details. Look at the tops of the windows to see the ziggurat pattern popular during this time. The hand railing on the second floor and the clerestory have a repetitive geometric pattern of chevrons. The use of many different construction materials such as glass, marble, metal, and wood was also characteristic of the Art Deco style.
The 1932 building was imploded in 1996. Some of the
wonderful Art Deco architectural details were saved. You can find some of the details here in the Library. The decorative bronze panels outside of the Millennium Café were from the building’s elevators and the light fixtures over the Library’s dock were from the exterior of the First National Bank.
Cultural Background
Maria Raquel Morales
Untitled, 2006
Porcelain
TSCPL Permanent Collection, 2006.25
Morales grew up in Guatemala. Her doll figures are often inspired by the
spirits of loved ones, both friends and family, who disappeared and were never seen from again during the Guatemalan Civil War (1960-96).
During the war, extreme right-wing groups of self-appointed vigilantes, including the Secret Anti-Communist Army (ESA) and the White Hand
(Le Mano Blanca), tortured and murdered students, professionals and peasants suspected of involvement in leftist activities.

Jaune Quick-To-See Smith
Sticky Mouth, 1993
Lithograph
TSCPL permanent collection, 1999.21
Jaune Quick-to-See Smith’s Salish, French Cree, and Shoshone ancestry informs her work. She regards herself as an ambassador between multiple cultures. Sticky Mouth, the title, is a translation of the Blackfeet word for bear, which refers to one of a bear’s favorite snacks—honey. In Native mythology, bears are messengers and in some cases seen as ancestral figures. Surrounding the bear are images of Native people, some of which are quite stereotypical.
Smith wants to educate people not only about where these stereotypes come from, but openly address these overgeneralizations. There is also a coyote figure, with which Smith identifies herself. Coyote is a “trickster” figure in Native culture. He’s a messenger. He warns people about dangers and the consequences of poor behavior. Here he is waving. Coyote is almost always irreverent. As someone who is navigating between multiple cultures, Smith can play that role perfectly. She’s able to make us laugh at things that aren’t appropriate, be delightful about it, but also certainly to make us think about it.

Portrait of Frederick Douglass
Douglass (1818-1895) by an unidentified artist. Courtesy National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. Although this portrait is attributed to an unidentified artist, Dolly Stetson’s letter of April 15, 1845 suggests that Elisha Hammond, a member of the Northampton Association, painted Douglass’ portrait during Douglass’es visit to the Association in 1845.
