Lecture by Dr. Jeanette Nicewinter: “Modern Art: Native American Style”

Virtual

Many Native American artists, like Kay Walkingstick, created abstract art that emphasized the materiality of their work. But, their self-identity as Native Americans has overshadowed their contribution to modern art. This talk will examine how mid-century Native American modern artists participated in the modern art scene.

The lecture will be given by Jeanette Nicewinter PhD. She is an assistant professor of art history at Northern Virginia Community College. Dr. Nicewinter earned her PhD in art historical studies from Virginia Commonwealth University.
