Tom Jones, Ho-Chunk Artist

Posted on by

There’s just a little more than a month left to see These Colors Will Not Run, an exhibition that highlights works by Indigenous artists, including Tom Jones (not the musical artist!)

There are many articles about Tom Jones’s work – first, his website: Photography | Tom Jones Ho-chunk. There is also another article in Hyperallergic: Tom Jones Zeroes in on Ho-Chunk Visibility.

Thinking about Veterans Day tomorrow, Nov. 11, 2023, it seems appropriate to focus on Jones’s work in the exhibition which was the source of inspiration for exhibition’s title, and which highlights Native peoples’ involvement in the U.S. Military: Watch this video about Tom Jones’ work

We are so thrilled to be able to highlight the PhotograpHER exhibition (on view through Nov 21 – see it before Thanksgiving) in recent tours, including focusing on works by Cara Romero, Wendy Red Star, and the inimitable Martine Gutierrez. Interested in learning more about Martine’s work? I found several resources about her work:
