WASHINGTON, D.C. — An artist from the Crow Tribe is making history with a groundbreaking exhibition in the nation’s capital.
Wendy Red Star, who was raised on the Crow Reservation in Montana, is one of six artists participating in Beyond Granite. The initiative’s inaugural installation opens to the public here on Friday — and it’s the first curated outdoor exhibition of its kind in the history of the National Mall.
Red Star’s contribution to the landmark project is titled The Soil You See… Situated in the Constitution Gardens alongside the famed Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, the work draws attention to the nation-to-nation relationship between her tribe and the United States government.
