Opening October 24, is the first-ever solo exhibition for Diné artist Patrick Dean Hubbell. The exhibition’s title is quite unique: After Everything, You Embraced My Being Like a Warm, Gentle Breeze.
Patrick Dean Hubbell (Navajo (Diné)), Each New Day Brings Challenges, Your Words Fortify Our Spirit, 2024, oil stick, acrylic, enamel, charcoal, oil pastel and sewing on canvas, 96 x 62 in.
“His artistic practice bears Indigenous knowledge systems, expressed through a critical engagement with materials and mark-making,” the museum notes in a release about the exhibition. “Bringing together recent paintings and works on paper, After Everything, You Embraced My Being Like a Warm, Gentle Breeze attends to the artist’s expansive use of mediums, abstractions and forms of display as sites of generation and intervention. Hubbell is also developing a major new site-specific installation, inaugurating the new series at TMA, The Sonoran Project, that invites artists from all over the world to respond to the Sonoran Desert environmentally, culturally, historically, socially or politically.”
The exhibition is curated by Meg Jackson Fox, chief of curatorial and convergent practice, in close collaboration with the artist. Hubbell’s work, which has been shown all around the country, is known for pushing the boundaries of more traditional mediums and styles.
The exhibition continues through March 21, 2027, in Tucson. —
