No. 611: Wendy Red Star

Episode No. 611 of The Modern Art Notes Podcast features artist Wendy Red Star.

The Columbus Museum of Art is presenting the career-length survey “Wendy Red Star: A Scratch on the Earth.” It’s on view through September 3. The exhibition was curated by Tricia Laughlin Bloom and Nadiah Rivera Fellah, and is accompanied by a publication from the Newark Museum of Art, which originated the exhibition.

An enrolled member of the Apsáalooke (Crow) Tribe, Red Star’s work explores both Native American ideologies and colonialist structures in ways that point to both the past and the present. Her work has been the subject of solo exhibitions at The Anderson Collection at Stanford University, the Joslyn Art Museum, MASS MoCA, the Missoula (Mont.) Art Museum, and more.
