Being Legendary presents a new-and never before published-body of work by the revered and internationally renowned Cree artist Kent Monkman, guided by an Indigenous worldview, historical narratives, and the artist's playful imagination. Known for his thought-provoking and groundbreaking paintings, in Being Legendary Monkman focuses on the cultural world's most urgent topic: What does the museum mean in the twenty-first century?
Kent Monkman (b. 1965) is an interdisciplinary Cree visual artist. A member of Fisher River Cree Nation in Treaty 5 Territory (Manitoba), he lives and works in Dish With One Spoon Territory (Toronto, Canada). Monkman's work explores themes of colonization, sexuality, loss, and resilience across painting, film/video, performance, and installation. Described by the Globe and Mail as ?about as famous as a living painter can be, ? Monkman creates, according to the CBC, ?the kind of art Canada needs right now.?
