Description
Featuring work by Artist-in-Residence Bunky Echo-Hawk
Bunky is the 2012 Eiteljorg Museum Artist in Residence, and was signed by Nike in 2010 to design for the Nike N7 line. His work has been exhibited throughout the country, including the Peabody Museum at Harvard University, The Colorado History Museum, University of California, Irvine, and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
Democracy is viewed from an indigenous perspective in Bunky’s Bullets in the Chest, Arrows in the Back exhibit, which reflects his view of what is done to and by Native Americans to profoundly affect their lives.
“It is my goal to truly exemplify the current state of Native America.”
– Bunky Echo-Hawk
