Kent Monkman: Death of Adonis
Kent Monkman’s work reveals how images of the American West have obscured the realities of colonial expansion and ecological destruction. Through scale, theatrical composition, and a reworking of 19th century tropes, Monkman reclaims the visual language of European and American painting and redirects it toward a critical retelling of history.
