September 27, 2024 — March 23, 2025 · Amon Carter Museum of American Art · Artists: Karl Haendel

Karl Haendel is included in the exhibition entitled *Cowboy* opening at the Amon Carter Museum of American Art in Fort Worth, TX on September 28th, 2024. The exhibition will be on view through March 23, 2025.

*Cowboy* reexamines the popular mythologies surrounding the image and concept of the cowboy. Through the work of 28 artists, which includes Asian American, Black, Indigenous, and Latino perspectives, the exhibition explores a wide array of themes, including the cowboy’s role in shaping our perception of masculinity and gender as well as long-held assumptions about cowboys’ relationship to land and the way these assumptions come into conflict with the lived experiences of contemporary cowboys. *Cowboy*, organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA) Denver, brings together more than 60 cutting-edge contemporary artworks including new commissions.
