Pivot art exhibition: balancing traditional and contemporary
Native graphics and images are at the heart of the new art exhibition “Pivot” at the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

What’s different is the images are all on skateboard decks. The creators of the show say it melds together the resilient Native work adapted to a decidedly non-Native medium.
