A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of visiting the Glenbow in Calgary, Alberta. I viewed the contemporary collection, the Blackfoot Confederacy historic collection and more specifically the Piikani (Blackfeet) items, Winold Reiss work, and Hongeeyesa's (Assiniboine) ledger drawings.

I am still processing this museum visit and looking forward to future projects together. Thank you Glenbow and Nicholas for having me out, and also to Christine, Joanne, Erica and Kelsey for all your help throughout my visit. I can't wait to go back.

Happening this morning at 11 AM. Come join Kate Lee, SITE SANTA FE Director of Creativity and Learning, and myself for a casual conversation about the 12th International, ledger art history, color harmony, and shapes within shapes!

Join us for a casual conversation and demo with 12th International and Santa Fe-based artist Terran Last Gun!

Terran Last Gun will speak on the topic of Ledger Art: Where Indigenous America and USA Converge about his artistic process and the larger history of ledger art in context.

Terran Last Gun (Piikani) is a visual artist based in Santa Fe, NM. Born and raised on the Blackfeet Reservation in Montana, Last Gun draws inspiration from land, cosmos, cultural narratives, and experiences to inform his practice. Working across media, he pushes the boundaries of Piikani abstraction and the long tradition of ledger art.

Visitors have a rare opportunity to look at the artist’s sketch books and learn about his process of documenting color and titling his works. He will bring in ledger books and other source materials that inspire his work.

Free to attend! Refreshments will be provided.
