SUMMARY:Future Imaginaries: Indigenous Art\, Fashion\, Technology
DESCRIPTION:September 7\, 2024 – June 21\, 2026 \nSamuel & Minna Grodin Gallery \n\n\n\n\nAbout the Exhibition\n\nFuture Imaginaries explores the rise of Futurism in contemporary Indigenous art as a means of enduring colonial trauma\, creating alternative futures and advocating for Indigenous technologies in a more inclusive present and sustainable future. Over 50 artworks are on display\, some interspersed throughout the museum\, creating unexpected encounters and dialogues between contemporary Indigenous creations and historic Autry works. Artists such as Andy Everson\, Ryan Singer and Neil Ambrose Smith wittily upend pop-culture icons by Indigenizing sci-fi characters and storylines; Wendy Red Star places Indigenous people in surreal spacescapes wearing fantastical regalia; Virgil Ortiz brings his own space odyssey\, ReVOlt 1680/2180\, to life in a new\, site-specific installation. By intermingling science fiction\, self-determination\, and Indigenous technologies across a diverse array of Native cultures\, Future Imaginaries envisions sovereign futures while countering historical myths and the ongoing impact of colonization\, including environmental degradation and toxic stereotypes.

SUMMARY:Rose B. Simpson: LEXICON
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition brings together two seemingly distinct art forms: Pueblo pottery and classic cars. In 2014\, Rose B. Simpson\, a mixed-media artist from Santa Clara Pueblo\, New Mexico\, refurbished a 1985 Chevy El Camino\, transforming it with a black-on-black Tewa pottery motif. Simpson titled her work Maria in honor of renowned artist Maria Martinez (San Ildefonso Pueblo\, 1887–1980)\, who popularized the distinctive black-on-black style. Ten years later\, this exhibition debuts Simpson’s second customized car\, a 1964 Buick Riviera painted in vibrant polychrome. Both cars are presented against an expansive geometric design\, evoking the environment of the Southwest and transforming Wilsey Court into a bold\, contemporary expression of Pueblo pottery traditions. Through this use of scale and space\, Simpson forges connections between the ancestral and contemporary\, and forms a new visual vocabulary\, or lexicon\, to assert her cultural heritage and its continuity.

Currently a UC Chancellor’s Postdoctoral Fellow at UCLA\, he holds a Ph.D. in Ethnic Studies from UC San Diego.

SUMMARY:Walking in Our Moccs: Perspectives from Indigenous Artists - Closing Art Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join Maidu Museum & Historic Site for the closing reception of Walking In Our Moccs: Perspectives from Indigenous Artists. Celebrate the artists and their work one last time with community\, conversation\, and refreshments. \nWalking In Our Moccs: Perspectives from Indigenous Artists is a community exhibition curated by Sierra Native Alliance\, a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving Native families\, cultures and environment in Placer County. The exhibition illuminates the experience of “walking in two worlds” through the eyes of contemporary Native American artists.

Many of the original artworks are for sale and proceeds support both the artists and the museum. \nDate: 2026-01-31\nLocation: Maidu Museum & Historic Site – 1970 Johnson Ranch Drive\, Roseville\, CA 95661\nCost: Free
