NATIVE MODERN: MARY SULLY @THE MET FIFTH AVENUE UNTIL 12 JAN, 2025 Mary Sully—born Susan Mabel Deloria on the Standing Rock Reservation in South Dakota—was a little-known, reclusive Yankton Dakota artist who, between the 1920s and 1940s, created highly distinctive work informed by her Native American and settler ancestry. This first solo exhibition of Sully’s groundbreaking production highlights recent Met acquisitions and loans from the Mary Sully Foundation, works that complicate traditional notions of Native American and modern art.

CANNUPA HANSKA LUGER: ATTRITION
@CITY HALL PARK
5 JUN - 17 NOV, 2024
For Cannupa Hanska Luger (b. 1979, Standing Rock Reservation, North Dakota), the bison is a symbol of Indigenous resilience and sovereignty. The mass slaughter of North American bison from 1845 to 1895 by settlers of European descent took place for profit, dominion over land and westward expansion. The strategic removal of this vital source of food, clothing, shelter and spiritual reverence for the Great Plains Native American populations forced their assimilation into western culture. It was also an ecological disaster with long lasting effects.
