The Akron Art Museum will present a major exhibition titled 'Kent Monkman: History Is Painted by the Victors,' featuring the renowned Cree artist's work. The show will include his signature paintings, installations, and a new, site-specific piece, focusing on his critical re-examination of colonial narratives in North American art history.
The Denver Art Museum hosted 'Untitled: Artist Takeover' in April 2025, an evening event featuring performances, artmaking, and installations by Indigenous artists. Highlights included a fashion show by SunRose IronShell, drag tours of the Kent Monkman exhibition, poetry readings, dance performances, and a finale titled 'Planting Seeds' with Sarah Ortegon Highwalking. Drop-in experiences offered ledger art, yarn art, temporary tattoos, and frybread-making, alongside one-night-only installations by Sarah Ortegon Highwalking.
