"Extended until October 4, 2020 A resounding success since opening in November 2019, this popular exhibition of contemporary Indigenous art has been extended until October 4 at the National Gallery of Canada. Àbadakone features work by more than 70 contemporary Indigenous artists identifying with almost 40 Indigenous nations, ethnicities and tribal affiliations from 16 countries, including Canada. Building upon themes of continuity, activation, and relatedness, Àbadakone explores the creativity, concerns and vitality of Indigenous art from virtually every continent. The exhibition was led by National Gallery of Canada curators Greg A. Hill, Christine Lalonde and Rachelle Dickenson, with consulted curators Candice Hopkins, Ariel Smith and Carla Taunton, as well as a team of advisors from around the globe. Experience this compelling exhibition for the first time -- or see it again -- as Àbadakone taps into the global pulse of Indigenous artistic production."--Publisher's description.
