About this event
Expanding on the themes of the exhibition Reservation for Irony: Native Wit and Contemporary Realities, the Institute of Contemporary Art Santa Fe and Trotta-Bono Contemporary invite the public to a timely panel discussion exploring satire, irony, and humor as powerful tools for critique in contemporary Indigenous art.
We are honored to welcome renowned artists Kent Monkman, Cara Romero, and Nicholas Galanin in conversation with moderator Tony Abeyta. Each of these artists has made a profound impact on contemporary art, using wit and irony to expose political distortion, reclaim Indigenous narratives, and disrupt outdated legacies.
This conversation offers a rare opportunity to engage deeply with the role of humor as a form of resistance, resilience, and cultural insight.
