White Cube Paris presents Emmi Whitehorse’s (b. 1957 Crownpoint, New Mexico) first exhibition in France. An enrolled member of the Navajo Nation, Whitehorse is known for her vibrant, poetic paintings of landscapes inspired by the unique topography of her native Southwest US. Grounded in the Navajo philosophy of Hózhó, the artist seeks to reflect a harmonious balance between humanity and nature within her practice.







Emmi Whitehorse is a Navajo painter celebrated for atmospheric abstractions that translate the land, light, and rhythms of the American Southwest into luminous fields of colour and line. Her works draw on Diné philosophy and a feminist, land-centred worldview, positioning her as a key figure in contemporary abstraction and international Indigenous art.




An international art powerhouse, White Cube was established in 1993 in London by art dealer Jay Jopling. In its space on Duke Street, it served as the early exhibition venue for many now internationally acclaimed British artists, including Tracey Emin, Gilbert & George, Rachel Kneebone and Antony Gormley, who still show with the gallery today.
