Homelands: Contemporary Haudenosaunee Art Across New York

September 5鈥揇ecember 7, 2024

Opening reception: 5鈥7 pm, Thursday, September 5

Homelands: Contemporary Haudenosaunee Art Across New York unites multigenerational Haudenosaunee artists and knowledge holders who center their historical relationship and reciprocity to the land, air, and waters across New York state. Working through diverse practices including photography, painting, sculpture, basketry, beadwork and documentary, the landscape is not a backdrop, but integral to Haudenosaunee culture and lived experience, which is woven into the work. The exhibition serves as a visual form of Indigenous knowledge sharing. It reclaims space and history through art, inviting visitors to reconnect with the land beneath their feet.

Guest curated by Luanne Redeye (Seneca), Assistant Professor, Department of Art Practice, University of California, Berkeley
