Current Exhibit
Portraits of Indigenous Authors and Artists
December 1, 2024 – June 30, 2025
Photographer: John Ratzloff

Portraits of Indigenous Authors and Artists is a collection of fine art photography by John Ratzloff. Spanning over 30 years, this exhibit showcases intimate portraits of influential Indigenous writers and creators. This project started when Ratzloff was invited to photograph the life and natural beauty of White Earth Nation; the photography honors the voices and legacies of indigenous leaders, offering a unique visual narrative that celebrates their contributions to art, culture, and advocacy.
