Nevada State University’s Office for the Arts Presents Honest Horses
Honest Horses: A Portrait of the Mustang in the Great Basin presents an uncommon view that demonstrates the significance of the wild horse in the American West. The photographs and narratives were made during 1999–2001, during which time Paula Morin photographed wild horse herds in their natural surroundings and recorded discussions with people whose lives are most intimately connected with them. Each black and white photograph was developed, printed, and then colored by hand with oil-based paints.
Curated by Paula Morin and organized by the Nevada Arts Council, Honest Horses: A Portrait of the Mustang in the Great Basin, is part of the Nevada Touring Initiative – Traveling Exhibition Program. It was funded by the National Endowment for the Arts and the State of Nevada.
