Between Wisdom and Knowledge: Contemporary Native American Art

Exhibition Website

Oct 18 2018 - Feb 16 2019

Between Wisdom & Knowledge: Contemporary Native American Art explores themes of dislocation – geographical, cultural, and artistic – and the diverse and compelling creative strategies Native artists have used in pursuit of self-realization or, as scholar Gail Tremblay termed it, “an American Indian sensitivity to nature and to cultural constructions visible to an outsider examining U.S. urban culture for its contradictions.”

Works on view will include selections from the MMAC Permanent Collection, recent gifts, and loans from private collectors, including works by Jeneese Hilton, Jay Laber, Neil Parsons, Jaune Quick-to-See Smith, Kevin Red Star, Francis Wall, and others.
