Horse Nation of the Očhéthi Šakówiŋ

A new exhibition that explores how horses shape the history, spirituality, and culture of the Dakhóta, Nakhóta, and Lakȟóta people.

All My Relations Arts presents Horse Nation of the Očhéthi Šakówiŋ, a new exhibition that explores how horses shape the history, spirituality, and culture of the Dakhóta, Nakhóta, and Lakȟóta (Dakota, Nakota, and Lakota) people, collectively known as the Očhéthi Šakówiŋ (Seven Council Fires).
 

The exhibition features more than 20 artworks—including paintings, textiles, film, and beadwork—by nationally renowned contemporary Native American artists. Horse Nation is on view from June 7th, 2018, through October 10th, 2018.
