The Land Wants You at Whitney Museum of American Art
As part of Whitney Biennial 2024: Even Better Than the Real Thing, this film program organized by guest curator asinnajaq opens up dialogues between Indigenous artists based in the United States and Indigenous communities beyond its borders, by bringing together works by Samí, Mongolian, Mapuche, Inuk, and Native American artists that are grounded in place, land stewardship, kinship, care, and belonging.

This program features works by Siku Allooloo, Seba Calfuqueo, Kite, Jenni Laiti, Niillasaš-Jovnna Máreha Juhani Sunná Máret – Sunna Nousuniemi, Sydney Frances Pascal, Lada Suomenrinne, Alisi Telengut, and Zulaa Urchuud. The screening will be followed by a conversation among asinnajaq; Biennial artists Kite, Lada Suomenrinne, and Sydney Frances Pascal; and Samí photographer and director Carl-Johan Utsi. Conversation guests are subject to change.
