Jeffrey Gibson: They Teach Love, from the Collections of Jordan D. Schnitzer and His Family Foundation presents a sweeping survey of over 35 objects spanning 15 years. The exhibition includes prints, photography, painting, sculpture, installation, and video. Born in Colorado in 1972, Jeffrey Gibson is of Cherokee heritage and a member of the Mississippi Band of Choctaw. His vibrant work is a call for Indigenous empowerment as well as queer visibility. Gibson has a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and a Master of Fine Arts from the Royal College of Art, London. Gibson is representing the United States at the Venice Biennale 2024—the first Indigenous artist to have a solo exhibition in the American Pavilion. This traveling exhibition is organized by the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art, Washington State University and is curated by Ryan Hardesty, Executive Director.
