Sičáŋǧu Lakota multidisciplinary artist Dyani White Hawk’s Tapun Ša Win is now on view in The Frick Art Museum. Admission is free. ⭐
White Hawk combines vibrant acrylic paint with smoked buckskin, vintage beads, and porcupine quills—materials connected to Lakota artistic traditions. Tapun Ša Win visualizes the story of the Red-Cheeked Woman, a Lakota narrative about love, grief, and the kinship between the Lakota and Star People.
Installed among Italian Renaissance devotional paintings collected by Helen Clay Frick, White Hawk’s work invites visitors to consider how distinct artistic traditions use stories, symbols, and materials to explore relationships between the earthly life and spiritual realms.
To see the art, grab your free general site admission wristband at The Grable Visitor Center.
