The artists turn to a range of aesthetic strategies, including re-enactment, remixing, memorialization, mimicry, parody, masquerade, and portraiture, underscoring the interdisciplinary nature of Indigenous art.Speakers and performers include: Demian DinéYahzi’, Alan Michelson, Kent Monkman, Wanda Nanibush, Joseph Pierce, Jolene Rickard, and others.
