Opening Friday, June 26th, from 6PM - 8PM
We invite you to join us for a reception to close Living Stories: Contemporary Woodland Native American Art on Friday, June 26th at 6pm. Museum members and Native Community reception starts at 5pm.
Reflected through the artists’ works and perspectives and rooted in Great Lakes and Woodland Indigenous cultures, the exhibit explored themes of Ancestors’ spirituality, Balance in nature, Identity and representation, and Expressions of survival. This is your last chance to go through the exhibit to reflect on these themes, what they mean to you, and how you relate to them.
This exhibit explores the evolving relationships between traditional Woodland Native American art and its contemporary interpretations, featuring the works of living artists who are pushing these traditions forward. Featuring Christal Ratt (Pidabinikwe), Valaria Tatera, Martina Gauthier, Le’Ana Asher, Sharon Hoogstraten, Jennifer Stevens, Monica Rickert-Bolter, and Jim Terry.
Living Stories was part of Art Design Chicago, a citywide collaboration initiated by the Terra Foundation for American Art that highlights the city’s artistic heritage and creative communities. Living Stories is funded by the Terra Foundation for American Art.
