Gerald Peters Contemporary is pleased to present And still, we persevere, a solo exhibition of new works by Patrick Dean Hubbell.
The exhibition of new paintings, works on paper, and large-scale installation continue Hubbell’s ongoing dialogue among Diné indigenous perspective, philosophies, and methodologies and contemporary art modalities. Embracing a variety of material, mediums, and presentation, Hubbell pushes past the generalizations of viewership and spectacle surrounding Indigenous art. Utilizing manufactured painting and drawing mediums, natural materials, and recycled and reclaimed objects, these works investigate the interior and exterior worlds that shape Hubbell practice.
