Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art acknowledges it resides on the ancestral territory of the Osage, Kaw, and Otoe-Missouria, among other tribal nations forcibly moved to the region such as the Shawnee, Wyandot, Delaware, Potawatomi, Sac and Fox and Kiikaapoi (Kickapoo) nations. We recognize and support the continued vibrancy of Native communities and cultures today who continue to thrive, as well as the inherent sovereignty of tribal nations. We are compelled to serve and advocate for these communities in accordance with our public mission.

Kemper Museum acknowledges and respects the diversity of Native people connected to this land today. Many recognize the land and all beings who live within it as relatives. We acknowledge the earth we inhabit, the waters of the Blue River, the Kansas River, the Missouri River, and the plants, animals, and people supported by them. 

We acknowledge our responsibility to be good caretakers of the land we occupy.

Join us for an artist and curator conversation celebrating the new exhibition, "Infinite Regress: Mystical Abstraction from the Kemper Museum Permanent Collection and Beyond."

Hambre Artist and Curator Conversation: Erin Dziedzic and Lucía Vidales

Join the curators and artists in the new exhibitions for a pair of conversations that provide insights into the art and ideas enlivening the museum this fall.

At 11 a.m., Lucía Vidales will discuss her major commissioned installation, Hambre with curator Erin Dziedzic.

At 1:30 p.m., Artists Theodora Allen and Panos Tsagaris, whose works are on view in the exhibition, Infinite Regress: Mystical Abstraction from the Permanent Collection and Beyond will join curator Kevin Moore in a conversation about a shared vocabulary of mystical abstraction that has both historical and contemporary resonance, engaging periods of extreme transformation in nature and technology.

Between the two talks, participants are invited to enjoy a special menu at the cafe created by Chef Ted Habiger.
