Dr. Rodney Haring’s Lacrosse Art Collection Featured on the West Coast!
An exhibit, Native Motion, celebrates resistance and cultural resilience. The artists in this exhibit represent only a small snapshot into the diversity that is Native America. These artists were selected because their work reflects both cultural tradition and contemporary innovation. Their work demonstrates an unbroken connection to their cultural roots while evolving in bold contemporary forms and is a metaphor for twenty-first century Native peoples. This movement is not linear nor is it intended to distance us from our history. This motion is cyclical and provides continuous connections with our roots. This is Native Motion.
Curated by Dr. Eric Tippeconnic, a reception was held April 1st at California State University Fullerton featuring the art of Karin Walkingstick, Monica Zavala, Dr. Rodney Haring along with community collaborators Brody D. Jimerson, Carson Waterman, Bernadette Scott, and Mataiasi Taufa. Native Motion will be available for viewing until June 28, 2023.
Dr. Haring shared “We appreciate the Seneca-Iroquois National Museum and Buffalo Museum of Science for hosting our collaborative “story stick” lacrosse art collection. From the lands of the Haudenosaunee to the ancestral lands of the Tongva and Acjacheman Nations. Nya:wëh to California State University at Fullerton for our first west coast art show!”
