The Museum of Contemporary Native Arts is the country’s foremost institution for exhibiting, collecting and interpreting progressive work of contemporary Native artists. It encourages artists to explore radical thought and disruptive approaches to art making that address environmental and political issues. Exposure: Native Art and Political Ecology will explore the responses of Indigenous artists to the impact of nuclear testing and uranium mining on Native peoples and the environment. The exhibition aims to give international Indigenous artists a voice to address the long-term effects of man-made disasters in the forms of nuclear poisoning and uranium mining.
Exposure: Native Art and Political Ecology
“It is an honor to be part of The Warhol Foundation’s mission to support the visual arts coupled with its commitment to specifically support the voices of women, POC, Native Americans, and LGBTQ. It is simply thrilling to be part of an organization where we get to see these values writ large and implement real change in real life ways in the visual arts community that still so needs to move forward in terms of social justice, equality, and diversity. We put our money where our mouth is. How many institutions actually do that?”
