Jan. 16 – March 21, 2026

Curator: Bryce Many Fingers

This exhibition highlights artworks that are reminiscent of bison from eras of the past and present. “Iinii,” being the Blackfoot word for Bison, offers a glimpse into some of the artworks of bison found in the University of Lethbridge’s collection. Through the lens of multiple artists throughout Canada from both Indigenous and non-Indigenous backgrounds, the images of bison all appear as one with the landscape where they have been represented through various mediums such as documentation, photography, illustrations, paintings, and storytelling.
