Artist Steven Paul Judd (Kiowa/Choctaw) & writer/producer Donick Cary join together to talk art, culture, and appropriation.
The October edition of Heard Museum Virtual Art Talks features two prominent creatives involved in wider discussions of appropriation and how it affects Natives and non-Natives alike. Judd’s 2021 sculpture, titled “Change,” and Cary’s soon to be released documentary, titled “Hail to the Breadsticks,” dually contribute to the conversation around the impact of the Washington Football Team and its former racist name.
Whether you are interested in the topic of appropriation, sports, or are just a fan of the two artists, you do not want to miss this special evening edition of Virtual Art Talks presented by the Heard!
Virtual Art Talks are free to attend with advanced registration required.
