Changing Galleries

A new wing housing changing galleries opened in April 2004.  The South Wing Galleries highlight local and national Native American artists, with a focus on Pueblo artists. The large gallerymeasures 2100 sq. ft. and a smaller gallery measures 750 sq. ft.  Past exhibitions curated by the IPCCmuseum staff emphasized renowned Pueblo artists such as Mateo Romero (Cochiti Pueblo), Lee Marmon (Laguna Pueblo), as well asup-and-coming artists such as Ron Martinez Looking Elk (Isleta/Taos Pueblos) and Jason Garcia (Santa Clara Pueblo).  We also strive to present stimulating and thought-provoking themed exhibitions, juried group exhibitions and traveling exhibitions.

Current Exhibits
100 Years 100 Years of State and Federal Policy:
The Impact on Pueblo Nations
Now showing in the South Gallery and Rotunda

This exhibition and its public programming will reflect upon the human experience behind enacted policies and laws on Pueblo communities by other governments. It will add to a well-documented history of Pueblo resilience since the time of Emergence. Interviews with Pueblo members will provide visitors with historical and personal reflections to help them understand and appreciate these historic challenges, often imposed through policy and laws, all intended to purposefully remove Pueblo people away from their core values.

Gathering the Clouds Gathering the Clouds -
Now Showing in the Avanyu Gallery

"Gathering the Clouds"
is an exhibition of Pueblo textiles and pottery that expresses the deep interconnection between Pueblo spirituality, art and nature. Our intention in exhibiting these beautiful collections is not only to share the genius of the artists who created them, but also to share with the viewer the power and significance of the "Gathering of the Clouds" – the calling upon the elements of earth, air, fire and water to bring all that is essential for life in the Pueblo world.
