This Friday, the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center unveils a new exhibition by Jonathan Juanico of Acoma Pueblo. Juanico—a self-taught artist, who is also the purveyor of Native Maize Apparel & Design—blends traditional symbolism and stories rooted in the natural world with digital mediums that bring them to light in an entirely new way. This collection of Juanico’s work, titled Degrees of Tradition, will be up until April 8, and is included with admission to the museum. Join the artist and other celebrants for a reception on Friday, Jan. 19, between 5 and 8pm.
