Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts: Get a guided tour of the exhibit, Neo-Custodians: Woven Narratives of Heritage, Cultural Memory, and Belonging. The exhibit focuses on the historical aspect of textiles as a vehicle for communication and representation. Linking this ancient form of expression to contemporary artworks inspired by this legacy, the thirteen artists in the exhibition engage intentionally with materials bearing complex histories. Offering unique perspectives that examine concepts around migration, identity, and environmental sustainability, these artists revisit history through the deconstruction of the canon. Reviewing personal and socio-political histories, as well as world events of the past through the lens of their diverse practices, they create a reconfiguration of ideas that births something new, centered on the regenerative properties of fibers. Located at 724 S. 12th St., Omaha, NE 68102.
