Exploring Oklahoma through paintings and sculpture, Art of the Oklahoma State Capitol examines the history of the state from the Indian Territory period through the twentieth century and beyond. Focusing on the art collected by Senator Charles Ford and sponsored by the Oklahoma State Senate Historical Preservation Fund, it reveals—through the vision of talented artists from around the state—the personalities of those who have shaped Oklahoma’s past and present.
Art of the Oklahoma State Capitol is divided into five sections, each detailing different aspects of the Oklahoma experience. The first section, “Oklahoma’s People,” features portraits of the famous as well as the ordinary men and women who challenged themselves and those around them to improve life for the citizens of the state and of the nation. The next section, “Oklahoma’s Beauty,” examines the state’s ever-changing landscape, from the Tall Grass Prairie to the flatland of the Panhandle. The section “Living History” presents paintings of historical scenes, both international and local. Sections on bronze sculpture and nineteenth-century lithographs by McKenny and Hall round out the book and demonstrate the depth of the Senate Collection.
Senator Ford has personally selected each work of art in this unique collection. Showcasing works by Charles Banks Wilson, Mike Wimmer, Linda Tuma Roberston, and many others, this book highlights some of the more prominent contemporary artists working in Oklahoma.

·John J Harden was one of the richest men on Oklahoma in the 1920's. He was an extraordinary power broker, influencing local and state decision-makers to approve his grandiose plans for construction of the Farmers Market in Oklahoma City and for the paving of many of the State's highways.·Harden dominated the cemetery and paving businesses in Oklahoma from the 1920's to the end of the Great Depression. His friendship with state and national political figures enabled him to legally procure influence at the highest levels of government. ·Harden's close personal relationship with the head of the nation's most prestigious newspaper chain was the basis for an intriguing public battle over control of state and local government. No one in Oklahoma received more press in the pre-Depression years than Harden and no one worked harder to avoid the publicity. Instead, Harden preferred to work behind the scenes to control City Hall. He decided the course of development of many acres of Oklahoma City "from the shadows". This story, for the first time, sheds light on his methods, his successes, and his failures.~~Bob Burke was bone in 1948 in Broken Bow, Oklahoma. He was a nationally known sportscaster and served as the Secretary of Commerce in the administration of Oklahoma Governor David L. Boren.
