Join us for the annual Signature Artist Lecture this spring, celebrating the exhibition Cannupa Hanska Luger: Speechless. Luger’s work broadly engages with issues of agency, consumerism, futurity, and Indigeneity. The exhibition includes recent large-scale sculptures and installations alongside smaller mixed media and paper works and a single channel video. Come and hear Luger speak about his work, the exhibition, and his ongoing project Future Ancestral Technologies.

Cannupa Hanska Luger (b. 1979) is an enrolled member of the Three Affiliated Tribes of Fort Berthold and is of Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara, Lakota, and European descent. Working with a wide array of media—video, performance, ceramic, textiles, found materials, and most recently paper—the artist activates cultural and social awareness relating to contemporary experience through his combinatory large-scale installations.
