Wendy Red Star: Her Dreams Are True
Wendy Red Star: Her Dreams Are True is a beautifully conceived artist book by the Apsáalooke (Crow) multimedia artist Wendy Red Star, whose work fascinatingly recontextualizes archival photographs, crafts, and museum artifacts to bridge past and present Indigenous histories. Edited with text by Shannon Egan alongside contributions from Darren Edward Lone Fight and Laura M. Furlan, this richly visual volume traces Red Star’s inventive interventions into archive material—juxtaposing annotated 19th‑century portraits, illustrations from museum collections, and her own evocative contemporary imagery to challenge static historical narratives and foreground cultural continuity. The result is both a meditation on memory and rematriation and a revelatory glimpse into one of contemporary art’s most compelling voices. Published in conjunction with an exhibition at The Trout Gallery of Dickinson College, this work invites readers into Red Star’s deeply thoughtful and transformative artistic practice.
