Her father was a rock musician, her uncle was a painter, and her grandmother sewed traditional Aps\u00e1alooke regalia and beadwork. When reflecting on her childhood, Red Star said that although the reservation may have been poor economically, \u201cculturally, I grew up very rich.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, Red Star explores her cultural heritage and the role of Native women through a variety of media, including photography, sculpture, video, fiber arts, and performance. Her work has been shown at institutions ranging from the Metropolitan Museum of Art to the Fondation Cartier pour l\u2019 Art Contemporain in Paris. Her exhibition Wendy Red Star: The Maniacs (We&#8217;re Not the Best, But We&#8217;re Better Than The Rest), which draws inspiration from her father\u2019s musical career, is on view through March 18 at New Mexico State University, with NEA support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Red Star has continued to pass down the family\u2019s artistic legacy through her ten-year-old daughter, Beatrice. This mother-daughter duo has been collaborating for four years, and demonstrates what \u201cowning your power\u201d as a Native-American woman looks like. In her own words, Red Star tells the story of her artwork and her culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.arts.gov\/stories\/magazine\/2018\/1\/women-arts-galvanizing-encouraging-inspiring\/wendy-red-star\">Source<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Community\/Nation\/Tribe: enrolled citizen of the Aps\u00e1alooke (Crow) Tribe Materials\/Processes: Digital photography; Digital image-making; Installation; Mixed-Media; Video Themes: History; contemporary identity; feminism; womanhood; contemporary life Online Resources: Statements\/Bios in Artists&#8217; Words: Growing up on the Aps\u00e1alooke (Crow) reservation in Montana, Wendy Red Star was immersed in Crow culture and art.
