Curator's Choice: Marie Watt and Nancy Marie Mithlo

Join the Fowler Museum, independent curator Nancy Marie Mithlo, and artist Marie Watt for a conversation about American Indian art, intellectual traditions, social activism, and the foundational practice of gratitude in Native communities. We’ll take a look at some of Watt’s most important, powerfully symbolic sculptural works informed by Indigenous knowledge, Iroquois proto-feminism, and American Indian matriarchal structures. Watt uses textiles, beads, cedar, and other materials conceptually attached to American Indian narratives in her work, which explores what it means to be a true “companion species.”
A Fowler Member-only virtual Happy Hour and Studio Visit with Marie and Nancy will follow the program. 

This event is presented by the Fowler Museum at UCLA.
