Stephen Friedman Gallery is pleased to present a survey of works by Native American visual artist and curator Jaune Quick-to-See Smith (1940-2025). Smith created complex abstract paintings and prints for over five decades. Known for her poetic, curious, and profound interpretations of America’s particular forms of bigotry toward Native peoples, the artist’s sharp humour pierced through the heavy topics of race, colonialism, pollution, genocide, and survival. This marks the first presentation of the artist's work with the gallery.
