Hearts of Our People: Native Women Artists
Women have long been the creative force behind Native American art, yet their individual contributions have been largely unrecognized, instead treated as anonymous representations of entire cultures. This landmark exhibition, featuring 81 artworks, is the first major thematic show to explore the artistic achievements of Native women and establishes their rightful place in the art world.  (Smithsonian Institution, Renwick Gallery)
