"Born on the Flathead Reservation in Montana, Jaune Quick to See Smith is one of the most acclaimed Native American artists working today. Her work is held by the Smithsonian, the Whitney, the Museum of Modern Art, the Walker, and has been reviewed by The New York Times, ArtNews, Art In America, Art Forum, The New Art Examiner and many others. Combining painting, printmaking and collage, her work uses personal and anthropologic symbols to comment on cultural appropriation and abuse. Despite the seriousness of the message, her work often comments on politics, human rights and the environment with humor. Despite her international travel and success, she continues to identify herself as a Flathead Salish member of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes."
