The ISM Chicago Gallery will present two special events in June 2014 in conjunction with the Footprints through Time: Artists Inspired by History exhibition.
Thursday, June 18, 2015, noon to 1 p.m. Artists Gallery Talk : Chris Pappan and Debra Yepa-Pappan This event is free and open to the public.
Chris Pappan is Osage, Kaw, Cheyenne River Sioux, and mixed European heritage. His work strives to make people aware that Indians are still alive and helps to change the distorted image of Native Americans in the collective consciousness.
Debra Yepa- Pappan visually explores what it means to be mixed race, a Jemez Pueblo and a Korean artist in Chicago. In her "Live Long & Prosper (Spock Was A Half-Breed), Debra placed her face on an Edward S. Curtis photograph of a Plains Indian woman with tepees behind her to juxtapose herself with a stereotypical image of Native Americans.
Wednesday, June 24, 2015, noon to 1 p.m. Artists Gallery Talk : Nora Lloyd and Christine Redcloud This event is free and open to the public.
Nora Moore Lloyd, Ojibwe, uses photography to share the important role of the visual storyteller and her work illustrates the common thread woven through generations. She shares various histories through her photographs. Christine Redcloud, Ojibwe, collaborates with Nora Lloyd on her Native Generations project and shares her traditional Native beadwork along with work that shows contemporary influences.
