To open her new exhibition of photographic and filmic self-portraiture at Montclair Art Museum, renowned Canadian artist Meryl McMaster (Red Pheasant Cree Nation, member of Siksika Nation, British, Dutch) will hold a virtual conversation with Curator of Native American Art Laura J. Allen at 7 p.m. on Thursday, March 23.

At a groundswell for her career, with two solo exhibitions and a newly released major retrospective publication, the artist will discuss her new body of work “Stories of my Grandmothers | nōhkominak ācimowina” in context with her prior series. She will also share her process for her site-specific photography as well as video, a new medium for McMaster. Selected works can be seen in Chronologies at MAM until September 17, 2023.

The exhibition Meryl McMaster: Chronologies and this event are organized by Laura J. Allen.
