TITLE: Comic Art Indigène Exhibit
BRIEF ABOUT: As the first widely accessible mass media, comic strips and comic books were consumed by Native people as a recognizable and legitimate form of storytelling. This new exhibit takes a look at how Native artists continue their storytelling traditions and life experiences through comics and comic-inspired art by showcasing historic examples of narrative art, including photographs of rock art, ledger art and ceramics as well as contemporary artworks.
