Technoshamanism is a landmark exhibition and research project exploring the confluence of contemporary art, indigenous knowledge, and technoscience. Situated in the urgency of the Anthropocene, the project departs from the premise that the “rational” technologies of the West and the “ritual” technologies of shamanism are parallel, equally valid systems of knowledge. By merging these domains, the exhibition seeks to catalyze expanded states of consciousness and promote healing locally, globally, and ecologically.

“Our granting program recognizes the equal importance of small, community-oriented spaces, major museums, and everything in between. Together, and with the foundation’s support, they work to collectively amplify the voices and visions of artists, which deepens and diversifies the national cultural discourse.”
