Kent Monkman at Akron Art Museum: Reimagining North American landscapes

Indigenous Canadian painter Kent Monkman, a member of the Fisher River Cree Nation, presents his exhibition "Kent Monkman: History is Painted by the Victors" at the Akron Art Museum, on view through August 16. The show features over 30 large-scale paintings that mimic 19th-century landscape works by settler artists like Albert Bierstadt and Frederic Edwin Church, but inserts Indigenous figures who were historically romanticized, stereotyped, or omitted.

The exhibition was organized by the Denver Art Museum and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, with co-curators John Lukavic and Léuli Eshrāghi.
