In this docent-led tour, explore artworks by contemporary artists representing many tribal affiliations, who are reshaping the narratives about American land and identity. Presented near historical Anglo-American paintings, these works offer insight into Native perspectives on stereotypes, beliefs, and themes circulated by 19th-century artists. More importantly, they depict Indigenous art, culture, and traditions in Wisconsin and beyond as they have always been: vibrant, enduring, and thriving. Featured artworks include Landscape<\/em> (1986) by celebrated Ojibwe artist George Morrison, a monumental twelve-foot wood collage on a limited-time loan from Art Bridges, and Feather Canoe<\/em> (ca. 1993) by Ho-Chunk American and Wisconsin-native artist Truman Lowe, whose featured exhibition Water\u2019s Edge: The Art of Truman Lowe<\/em>, organized by Smithsonian\u2019s\u202fNational Museum of the American Indian, will open at the Milwaukee Art Museum on April 9. This drop-in experience is included with Museum admission and is free for Members. Admission tickets are available at the door or online.<\/p>\n

Drop-in tours invite you to explore the Museum through the perspectives of our knowledgeable docents, with different themes highlighting the collection each season.<\/p>\n
