House Made of Dawn: Art by Native Americans 1880 to Now, Selections from the Hsu-Tang Collection

At the DiMenna Children’s History Museum, *House Made of Dawn: Art by Native Americans 1880 to Now* draws from the Hsu-Tang Collection to trace Indigenous artistic practice across more than a century. Works from different nations and eras sit side by side, showing how materials, subjects, and forms adapt under pressure and persist through continuity. Presented as a live, in-person exhibition in New York City, it places Native American art in the city’s public cultural record rather than at its margins. One clear takeaway is how strongly the show resists a single, fixed “traditional” look.
