Compositional Works of Bison in the University Art Collection

This exhibition highlights artworks that are reminiscent of Bison from eras of the past and present. “Iinii,” being the Blackfoot word for Bison, offers a glimpse into some of the artworks of Bison found in the University of Lethbridge’s collection. Through the lens of multiple artists throughout Canada from both Indigenous and Non-Indigenous backgrounds, the images of bison all appear as one with the landscape where they have been represented through various mediums such as documentation, photography, illustrations, paintings, and storytelling.
