Hales is delighted to announce the inclusion of Kay WalkingStick in Action/Abstraction Redefined: Modern Native Art, 1940s–1970s at the Saint Louis Art Museum.
Action/Abstraction Redefined: Modern Native Art, 1940s–1970s, is the first exhibition at the Saint Louis Art Museum to focus on modern Native American art. Expanding the narrative of midcentury abstraction, the exhibition highlights groundbreaking paintings, sculptures, textiles, and works on paper that challenged stereotypical expectations of Native American art during the postwar era.
The exhibition is organized by the IAIA Museum of Contemporary Native Arts in Santa Fe, a Native American-led institution with a deep, focused collection. In the St. Louis presentation, Saint Louis Art Museum curators have expanded the number of works to provide greater context for the remarkable story of abstraction during the first decade of IAIA.
