Just Another Indian Cowgirl in Iraq (2004) by the late Bob Boyer is on loan to the MacKenzie Art Gallery for the touring exhibition Bob Boyer: His Life’s Work. The next venue on this exhibition tour is the Winnipeg Art Gallery, Manitoba, January 19 to April 8, 2012. The exhibition can be viewed on the Virtual Museum of Canada site at www.virtualmuseum.ca/Exhibitions/BobBoyer/.

In discussing Just Another Indian Cowgirl in Iraq in the virtual exhibition, Gerald McMaster states, “It’s an unusual painting. I chose to look at it because it became almost a three dimensional look at a space using his typical abstract symbolist kind of design work. And what he began to do in this work is as you see began to take it apart almost cubistically, almost like Decarrico’s work but in some ways began to say something kind of interesting.”
