Opening Reception March 21, 5-7pm
Join us for the opening reception of Countless Visions on Friday, March 21 from 5-7pm.
Countless Visions is about dismantling and reassembling cultural narratives; Jason Lujan invites viewers to reflect on the complexities of cultural interaction and the creation of new meanings in a global context. The exhibition features artwork about transnational experiences and aesthetics regarding the limitations of translation and the exchange of ideas.
Just as previous generations of Native artists responded to the introduction of modern art materials like synthetic paint to record, recode, and reframe traditional ideas and put forth new ideas, Countless Visions will emphasize transitive zones involving the processes of unfamiliar becoming familiar, or the unfamiliar being made familiar.
