"Indigenous Americans" at STRAAT Gallery.
Currently on view at the STRAAT Museum and gallery in Amsterdam, Netherlands is the group exhibition, "Indigenous Americans: Post Colonial Expressions." This exceptional exhibition features the work of four eminent contemporary artists of Native American heritage, including Jaque Fragua, Danielle SeeWalker, Kaplan Bunce, and Anthony Garcia Sr.
In line with the institution's enduring commitment to familiarizing the public with the multifarious dimensions of global street art and graffiti culture, this exhibition pays tribute to a less-recognized subculture therein. "Indigenous Americans: Post Colonial Expressions" addresses the unifying spirit that pervades a culturally diverse society, while also highlighting the deep-seated historical connections of Indigenous artists and their continued engagement with public space painting.
Kaplan Bunce, one of the participating artists, has remarked, "To me, the contemporary urban art landscape resembles a fusion of culture-rich exchanges of artistic practices from around the world. I perceive unity within the community, and by perpetually embracing my Indigenous identity in these spaces, I am forging ahead on a path created by those who have left their marks on walls since time immemorial."
The exhibition is on view until June 11th, 2023.
