“Hock E Aye Vi Edgar Heap of Birds: Surviving Active Shooter Custer”

A member of the Cheyenne and Arapaho nations, Hock E Aye Vi Edgar Heap of Birds has been making art for more than 30 years, creating politically piquant paintings, drawing, prints and videos. His work draws upon Native American culture and its rich, proud heritage, while also reminding viewers of the centuries of depredations inflicted on native communities by the white man. This exhibit features large-formant prints resembling yard signs covered with crudely lettered, haiku-like meditations on this ugly history.
