In response to a controversial tourism ad campaign that incorporated a quote by Georgia O’Keeffe, Tewa Nangeh/Tewa Country: Tewa Interpretations of “O’Keeffe Country” seeks to engage and build community with native citizens of the region. The exhibition features Tewa artists’ responses to O’Keeffe’s vision of the land that would also foreground their own experiences and cultural perspectives. Moving well past a land acknowledgement affixed to the wall, this exhibition and its programming offer deep engagement – the kind necessary to build lasting relationships with communities whose artists have been historically excluded from institutional presentations and programming.

“The Warhol Foundation aims to support the full range of artistic activity in America—from exhibitions at major museums to neighborhood projects by artist collectives. Arts writers, through the range and specialization of their individual interests, touch upon all of this activity—illuminating and interrogating it and bringing it into conversation with the public. Support for artists is not complete without support for the circulation and serious consideration of their ideas. The Arts Writers Grant program keeps artists at the center of cultural dialogue and debate—in our opinion, right where they belong.”
