James Luna: Emendatio
James Luna: Emendatio
James Luna (Luiseño, b. 1950-2018) was named the Distinguished Artist of 2007 by the Eiteljorg Museum. A renowned performance and multimedia artist, Luna frequently employed humor to devastating effect in his work and confronted commonly held perceptions of Native Americans.
He performed in New York at The Studio Museum in Harlem and the Whitney Museum of American Art; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; UCLA's Armand Hammer Museum in Los Angeles; the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa; and many other museums. Luna earned a bachelor's degree in fine arts from the University of California, Irvine and a master's degree in counseling from San Diego State University.
"Emendatio" was organized by associate curator Paul Chaat Smith (Comanche) and Truman T. Lowe (Ho-Chunk), curator of contemporary art. The exhibition is accompanied by an illustrated catalog that documented Luna's career.
