Contemporary Indigenous Art at Maryhill Museum of Art
Since 2010, Maryhill Museum’s collection of contemporary Indigenous art has greatly expanded. The 2022 exhibition Northwest/Southwest: Indigenous Art After 1980 drew on this work and select loans from public and private collections to present an overview of some of the diverse expressions that have been produced in the Indigenous community during the last four decades.
