Join us for an interdisciplinary roundtable discussion about the contemporaneity of Indigenous artistic practices alongside traditional forms, in conjunction with the Zimmerli’s major special exhibition Indigenous Identities: Here, Now & Always.
We will be joined by Joe Baker (artist, educator, curator and co-founder of the Lenape Center in NYC) and Lou Cornum (Assistant Professor of Native American Studies, New York University) as they share their perspectives on the exhibition.
