Free Community Day: Duane Linklater: mymothersside

Celebrate the opening of Duane Linklater: mymothersside with free gallery admission to the public on Saturday, October 7, from 11 AM to 7 PM.

For over a decade, Duane Linklater has been making art that interrogates the construct of museums, their conventions, and their historical exclusion of Indigenous people and content. Working across a range of media—including painting, sculpture, and video—he addresses the contradictions of contemporary Indigenous life within settler systems of knowledge, representation, and value. Duane Linklater: mymothersside is the artist’s first major survey exhibition.
