Museum of Fine Arts, Boston | What is American?: Native American Art at the MFA @mfaboston | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 17 hours ago
During this program, Tess Lukey (Aquinnah Wampanoag), Curatorial Research Associate, Art of the Americas, frames for educators the many different contexts for talking with students about these works of art, and the importance of elucidating the presence of Native American communities and cultures in New England and across the country. The session highlights works of art from the MFA's collection featured in the “Of This Land: Native American Woodlands Art” online slideshow. We will discuss integrating these works of art into teaching with an in-depth conversation on three of the works featured.
