Explore the legacy and continuing environmental impact of White settlement on the physical and cultural landscape of the Elem Pomo tribal lands at Clear Lake in Northern California and other indigenous communities. Hear from sovereign people of the present-day Elem Indian Colony about their strategies to confront environmental catastrophes such as the toxic, now-abandoned Sulphur Bank Mercury Mine.
Presented in conjunction with the exhibition Jules Tavernier and the Elem Pomo.
The exhibition is made possible by Jan and Warren Adelson and The Mr. and Mrs. Raymond J. Horowitz Foundation for the Arts. It is organized by The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco.
