Indigenous in Plain Sight: Disrupting Stereotypes Through Art
Join us for a conversation with Gregg Deal (Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe), a nationally and internationally recognized multi-disciplinary artist whose work spans painting, performance, filmmaking, and spoken word. As an artist, activist, and educator, Gregg creates work that examines American history, colonialism, and popular culture through a Native lens. Through his diverse artistic practices and lectures, Gregg challenges stereotypes and offers thoughtful perspectives on representation, identity, and the complex relationship between past and present in American society. Gregg has delivered two TEDx talks, and his works have been featured in prestigious institutions, including the Denver Art Museum, RedLine Gallery, and The Smithsonian Institution.
