Gregg Deal, (Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe) is a multi-disciplinary artist, activist, and self-described “disruptor” based in Southern Colorado.
A major solo exhibition at the Ent Center for the Arts' Marie Walsh Sharpe Gallery site will feature new works in multiple series addressing Native identity and critiquing American society, politics, popular culture and history. Deal’s art practice incorporates lifelong interests in punk music, street art and graphic styles, comic books, and speculative superhero fiction. Deal presents a new paradigm that places the perception, narratives and voices of Indigenous people at the center of modern and historic storytelling, with romantic and damaging stereotypes of culture placed upon them upended and rejected by all. In “Esoo Tubewade Nummetu (This Land Is Ours)”, Deal asserts that Native peoples and their cultures are still here and that we are all standing on the homelands of past and future Indigenous generations.
Free admission to the gallery.
Pre-registration is preferred for special events such as the artist talk
