Description

Gregg Deal, (Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe) is a multi-disciplinary artist, activist, and "disruptor." I Am So Bored With The USA by Deal unapologetically reclaims Indigenous narratives, challenging the dominance of colonial histories. Heavily influenced by punk culture, the exhibition title references The Clash’s song “I’m So Bored With the U.S.A.” Deal’s art dismantles stereotypes and questions the erasure of Indigenous identity in mainstream culture. His practice—spanning painting, sculpture, performance art, and music—operates as a potent protest. This exhibition brings forward the strength of Indigenous voices and the resilience that shapes them, positioning Indigenous representation not just as inclusion but as reclamation.

I’m So Bored With The USA is on display from February 4 through March 22. Please join us for a special Art in Context lecture with Gregg Deal on February 4 at 4:45 pm with a reception to follow. This event is free and open to the public.
