One Painting at a Time with Danielle SeeWalker

About This Event

Encore presentation! Galleries open 6–6:30 p.m. Talk 6:30–7:30 p.m. Join Danielle SeeWalker, a Denver-based artist, writer, and Hunkpapa Lakota citizen of the Standing Rock Sioux Nation, for a special edition of One Painting at a Time, a program that invites close looking, open-ended dialogue, and personal interpretation. One Painting at a Time challenges us to look beyond our first impressions and spend quality time with a single painting. The program departs from the idea that Clyfford Still intended his artwork to be open to interpretation and did not title his paintings. Each program is unique, with the format and conversation determined by the speaker, who has free rein to choose a painting from the 843 in the Museum’s collection. In this session, SeeWalker brings her lived experience and artistic perspective to a painting of her choosing, offering participants the opportunity to reflect on Still’s work through the lens of contemporary Native American presence, identity, and creative practice. The program supports the Museum’s ongoing commitment to community-centered dialogue and is offered in conjunction with “Tell Clyfford I Said ‘Hi’”. SeeWalker will discuss Still’s PP-493, 1936. Registration is required to attend in person at the Clyfford Still Museum.
