On exhibit at @MMoCAMadison through February 26: @WendyRedStar's Apsáalooke. Read Salma Monani and @nseymourPHD on Red Star's playful approach to Indigenous art, published in September 2020 https://t.co/boPnlXKwk3

Artist Wendy Red Star (Apsáalooke) uses humor and play to subvert museum practices that freeze Indigenous cultures in the annals of history.
This work by @WendyRedStar features a repeating image of her great-great-grandmother, on view in “Apsáalooke: Children of the Large-Beaked Bird” through February 26, 2023. Wendy Red Star, "Her Dreams Are True (Julia Bad Boy)," 2021. Lithograph on mulberry paper.
