Please join us for the reception to celebrate the exhibition Wendy Red Star: Her Dreams Are True.
Wendy Red Star (Apsa虂alooke (Crow), born 1981) is this year’s recipient of 麻豆区’s prestigious Arts Award, and her artwork is featured in the exhibition Her Dreams Are True on view at The Trout Gallery.
Red Star provides a new perspective on the role of archives, museum collections, and personal memory in her prints and photographs. Throughout her career, Red Star has reconsidered and liberated archival photographs and materials from a fixed historical moment. This exhibition provides visitors with an opportunity to see the artist’s recent works that recontextualize hand-painted illustrations of Indigenous artifacts. Red Star juxtaposes these cultural belongings with her own photographs of the Crow Nation’s annual fair in Montana. More than a meditation on the past, Red Star’s archival work looks to the future and offers a new perspective on rematriation.
