Heard Museum Members receive exclusive access to the museum’s permanent collection. Each Artful Mornings event provides an opportunity to engage with our curators and learn more about our collection of over 46,000 works of art.
Saturday, Jan. 11, enjoy a first look at the upcoming original Heard Museum exhibition Bob Haozous: A Retrospective View. This is the first major retrospective for the groundbreaking artist Bob Haozous (Chiricahua Apache/Diné, b. 1943). The exhibition brings together six decades of his work, including sculpture, painting, prints, and jewelry. It examines the timely social commentary embedded in Haozous’s work and his overlooked contributions to the field of contemporary art through the presentation of more than 80 works. Throughout his career, Haozous has shaped current dialogues about the complicated reality of American Indian creative expression as art, commodity, and cultural practice. Haozous uses satire and irony to reconsider figurative traditions within Indigenous art while contemplating the philosophical meaning of being Indigenous in the postmodern world.
Doors open at 10:45 a.m., and the presentation begins at 11 a.m. Coffee and snacks provided.
Registration required.
