TINGUELY@HOME #71 Artist Lecture Marilou Schultz

«The Then and Now of Marilou Schultz», tisserande diné de la Nation navajo. Une manifestation en coopération avec Art of Intervention, dans le cadre de l’exposition «Labouring Bodies».

The renowned weaver Marilou Schultz learned the traditional craft of Navajo weaving as a child. Since the 1980s she has been experimenting with new techniques and dying methods of her own. She became known among others for her designs inspired by computer chips; in her practice, she combines Indigenous knowledge with the history of digital technologies. Her work also points to a less well-known historical link: many Navajo women worked in semiconductor factories in the southwest of the United States. Schultz’s works have been shown at documenta 14 in Kassel, at the National Gallery of Art in Washington and at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. From June to November 2026, the Hessel Museum of Art in upstate New York will host an extensive solo show of her work.
