Kent Monkman Bookmark Set
Kent Monkman
This bookmark set of five is a continuous print of Kent Monkman's famous painting entitled, The Scream (2017). The jarring but powerful scene depicted in Kent Monkman’s The Scream represents an important part of Canada’s 150-year. “History that has never been authorized to our official, dominant art history,” Monkman says. He has also said that he hopes his work will not only educate current Canadians about our country’s past but also leave an impact on future generations.
Kent Monkman is a Canadian artist of Cree ancestry who works with a variety of media, including painting, film/video, performance, and installation. His work is known for its provocative reinterpretations of Romantic North American landscapes, and it explores themes of colonization, sexuality, loss and resilience—the complexities of historic and contemporary Indigenous experience.
