Join us for the opening reception of Terran Last Gun's exhibition at the Cawein Gallery. The reception is a free event and open to the public, offering an opportunity to meet the artist and explore his work.
Terran Last Gun, a visual artist and enrolled citizen of the Piikani (Blackfeet) of Montana, creates work that is both ancient and contemporary. He uses color and form as the building blocks of his art, which connects him to his Piikani heritage. His influences range from traditional Blackfoot-painted lodges and hides to ancient sites, petroglyphs, and rock formations.
Last Gun’s art employs a geometric aesthetic that contributes to an ongoing Piikani narrative, bridging the past and present. His work in printmaking, painting, and ledger drawing reveals fragments of time, history, and Indigenous abstraction, an art form that has survived for thousands of years. The exhibition features bold, vivid pieces with abstract minimalist qualities that are potent in meaning, content, and place.
The exhibition will be on view from September 4th to October 3rd. Gallery hours are 9:00 to 5:00 pm daily. We look forward to seeing you there!
