Indigenous Abstracts: From Alaska to the Pueblo Southwest

July 22, 2023 - January 7, 2024

Weil Gallery

This remarkable installation celebrates the brilliance of Native American artists hailing from the United States and Canada. Through the display of historical works, we honor the rich diversity of Native life and present a profound exploration of America’s past. These artworks hold deep significance for both Native and non-Native communities, shedding light on complex perspectives that shape our present.

These items serve as vibrant expressions of Native sovereignty, identity, and communal bonds, embodying intergenerational and environmental knowledge. They encompass origin stories, languages, songs, dances, and connections to ancestral lands, resonating with the spirit of Native peoples past and present.
