In 1953 she received a scholarship to attend the Instituto Allende in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico\u2014an experience that whetted LaDuke\u2019s appetite for travel and fed a lifelong interest in world culture. While in Mexico she met muralists Rufino Tamayo, Diego Rivera, and David Alfaro Siqueiros, whose dedication to an art representing the working people continues to influence LaDuke\u2019s content. LaDuke\u2019s most recent series celebrates Oregon\u2019s agricultural workers\u2014whether depicting laborers in vineyards, orchards, or fields, her brightly colored, whimsically shaped wooden panels energize her compositions and joyfully reflect the toil of those who reap and sow in our verdant countryside. New works and paintings from her 65-year retrospective exhibition, mounted in 2013 at the Schneider Museum of Art at Southern Oregon University, will be presented in her&nbsp;<em>APEX<\/em>&nbsp;exhibition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>APEX is an ongoing series of exhibitions of Northwest-based artists, curated by Bonnie Laing-Malcolmson, The Arlene and Harold Schnitzer Curator of Northwest Art.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The APEX series is supported in part by The Arlene and Harold Schnitzer Endowments for Northwest Art and the Paul G.
