a new Photography Exhibition Showcasing the Work of Seneca Artist DJ Huff
On Saturday, May 17, the Fort Pitt Museum unveiled Across, a new photography exhibition showcasing the work of Seneca artist DJ Huff.
The exhibit invites visitors to experience contemporary American Indian identity through Huff’s lens – offering a moving and personal reflection on Native life, memory, and presence. Huff, a member of the Seneca Nation from the Cattaraugus Reservation in New York, has long been a valued contributor to the Fort Pitt Museum as a cultural educator and historical interpreter.
Across complements the museum’s current marquee exhibition, Homelands: Native Nations of Allegheny, which explores the enduring histories and vibrant cultures of the Native nations who once called Western Pa. home. Several items loaned by Huff are featured in Homelands, and his photographs in Across build on these stories, effectively blending the past and present.
