This stunning exhibition brings together more than 120 works by 33 Indigenous artists from North America, Australia and New Zealand, alongside pioneering glass artist Dale Chihuly. Drawing on traditional stories, designs and cultural knowledge while addressing contemporary Indigenous experiences, these artists harness the unique properties of glass to reinterpret cultural traditions in a dynamic contemporary medium. The result is a groundbreaking exhibition that expands the story of Native art and reveals the remarkable creative possibilities of glass.

 

Clearly Indigenous: Native Visions Reimagined in Glass was originated by the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture, Santa Fe, New Mexico, where it was curated by Dr. Letitia Chambers and Cathy Short (Potawatomi). The traveling exhibit was curated by Dr. Chambers and is toured by International Arts & Artists.
