Generations of Indigenous artists carved out a place for Native American art in North American culture and society during the 20th century. To do so, they confronted fundamental questions of how to use art for social and political goals, with each generation benefiting from the work of those who came before. History Professor Nicolas G. Rosenthal presents his research on how Indigenous artists worked to validate Native American culture and rewrite North American history from an Indigenous perspective through innovative, meaningful, and beautiful works of art.
