Kent Monkman exhibition on display in Toronto

Kent Monkman’s newest solo exhibition Miss Chief’s Praying Hands is on view at Project Gallery in Toronto’s Leslieville neighbourhood. Monkman, a Canadian artist of Cree ancestry, will be showing work from a body of projects, but with a focus on his newest series The Rendezvous, full of Indigenous peoples, mountain men and trappers interacting outside of a typical historical context. He creates an ambiguity that seeks to reverse the viewer’s gaze. The exhibition runs until Sept. 1. Tuesday to Saturday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. 1210 Dundas St. E., projectgallery.ca.
