Artist Jeffrey Gibson Is Suing Kavi Gupta Gallery for Allegedly Withholding Over $600,000 USD in Sales
It's been roughly a few weeks now since Choctaw-Cherokee artist Jeffrey Gibson was announced to represent the United States at the 2024 Venice Biennale — the first Indigenous artist to be chosen for the honor.
