Never Broken: Visualizing Lenape Histories considers the power of art to construct and dismantle inaccurate Indigenous histories. The publication features contemporary art by Ahchipaptunhe (Delaware Tribe of Indians and Cherokee), Joe Baker (Delaware Tribe of Indians), Holly Wilson (Delaware Nation and Cherokee), and Nathan Young (Delaware Tribe of Indians, Pawnee, and Kiowa) in dialogue with historic Lenape ceramics, beadwork, and other cultural objects as well as with re-creations, by European American artists, of Benjamin West's painting Penn's Treaty with the Indians. Published in conjunction with an exhibition on view at the James A. Michener Art Museum from September 9, 2023 to January 14, 2024, Never Broken includes essays by Joe Baker, Laura Turner Igoe, and Joel Whitney. Through a focus on Lenape art, culture, and history and a critical examination of historical visualizations of Native and European American relationships, Never Broken demonstrates the ways in which art can create, challenge, and rewrite history.
