The above is a link that I really hope works. It is connected to an article about what kind of current work that Adrian Stimson is up to. I say kind of current because he is a very busy, and creative artist. I have had the great pleasure of being a student in several of his classes while he was finishing up his masters at the U of S. Who doesn't want to take a class about burning man? It was incredible, he is very passionate, and talented. What I admire the most about his older works is through his use of humor he created a lot of very important dialogues about very heavy and personal subjects. His Buffalo Boy persona created a great deal of talk around colonialism, the residential school system, the past, present and future or aboriginal culture, misperceptions of LBGTQ community just to list the tip of the iceberg. His new work intrigues me just as much.
