Native American Art brings together anthropologists, art historians, curators, critics and distinguished Native artists to discuss pottery, painitng, sculpture, printmaking, photography and performance art by some of the most celebrated Native American and Canadian First Nation artists of our time The contributors use new theoretical and critical approaches to address key issues for Native American art, including symbolism and spirituality, the role of patronage and musuem practices, the politics of art criticism and the aesthetic power of indigenous knowledge. The artist contributors, who represent several Native nations - including Cherokee, Lakota, Plains Cree, and those of the PLateau country - emphasise the importance of traditional stories, myhtologies and ceremonies in the production of comtemporary art. Within great poignancy, thye write about recent art in terms of home, homeland and aboriginal sovereignty Tracing the continued resistance of Native artists to dominant orthodoxies of the art market and art history, Native American Art in the Twentieth Century argues forcefully for Native art's place in modern art history.

Download or read book Initiative de recherche sur les arts autochtones written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cette série de consultations a eu lieu dans le cadre de l'initiative de recherche sur les arts autochtones, mise sur pied dans le but de planifier et d'entreprendre les travaux de recherche nécessaires pour appuyer et orienter le plan d'action sur les arts autochtones du Conseil des Arts du Canada. [...] Un des grands objectifs du plan d'action sur les arts autochtones, et par conséquent de l'initiative de recherche sur les arts autochtones, est de mesurer l'incidence des arts sur les collectivités autochtones, ainsi que l'incidence plus généralisée des arts autochtones au Canada et à l'étranger. [...] De nos jours, de nombreux artistes considèrent les pratiques artistiques contemporaines comme étant un processus de décolonialisation, de réappropriation, de réclamation et de guérison. [...] L'introduction de maladies infectieuses, l'adoption de la Loi sur les Indiens, le confinement des Peuples autochtones dans les réserves, les pensionnats, l'imposition de systèmes de valeurs différents ne sont que quelques-uns des héritages de la colonisation qui ont modifié de façon dramatique la vie des Autochtones. [...] Les artistes ont parlé de la nécessité d'honorer l'imagerie, la danse et la musique traditionnelles, de demander la permission des bandes, des familles et des aînés avant d'utiliser certains éléments, de transmettre les histoires dans le contexte culturel qui leur convient.

Download or read book A Companion to Contemporary Art in a Global Framework written by Jane Chin Davidson and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2023-10-04 with total page 597 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Companion to Contemporary Art in a Global Framework explores the ways specialists and institutions in the fine arts, curation, cultural studies, and art history have attempted to situate art in a more global framework since the 1980s. Offering analyses of the successes and setbacks of these efforts to globalize the art world, this innovative volume presents a new and exciting way of considering art in its global contexts. Essays by an international panel of leading scholars and practicing artists assert that what we talk about as ‘art’ is essentially a Western concept, thus any attempts at understanding art in a global framework require a revising of established conceptual definitions. Organized into three sections, this work first reviews the history and theory of the visual arts since 1980 and introduces readers to the emerging area of scholarship that seeks to place contemporary art in a global framework. The second section traces the progression of recent developments in the art world, focusing on the historical and cultural contexts surrounding efforts to globalize the art world and the visual arts in particular global and transnational frameworks. The final section addresses a wide range of key themes in contemporary art, such as the fundamental institutions and ontologies of art practice, and the interactions among art, politics, and the public sphere. A Companion to Contemporary Art in a Global Framework is essential reading for undergraduate and graduate students, scholars, researchers, and general readers interested in exploring global art beyond the traditional Euro-American context.

Book excerpt: Les Premiers peuples issus du territoire nommé Québec connaissent depuis quelques années un rayonnement culturel considérable. En fait preuve cet ouvrage qui rassemble des témoignages et des comptes rendus d’expressions visuelles, performatives, musicales et vidéographiques, ainsi que des entretiens avec des artistes autochtones. Il montre bien comment les oeuvres d’art, en tant que canal privilégié de communication, permettent aux communautés d’exprimer leurs conditions, mais aussi de reprendre contact avec le meilleur d’elles-mêmes, d’inscrire leur vision dans l’espace et dans la durée, et de participer aux processus de désaliénation, d’affirmation et de décolonisation. En plus de fournir des repères historiques, le livre offre une véritable cartographie des aspirations de ces artistes, ainsi que de leurs démarches, leurs choix techniques et thématiques et leurs stratégies d’affirmation et de reconstruction à la fois culturelle, sociale et politique.

Download or read book Art of the Northwest Coast written by Aldona Jonaitis and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-14 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 2006, Art of the Northwest Coast offers an expansive history of this great tradition, from the earliest known works to those made at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Although non-Natives often claimed that First Nations cultures were disappearing, Northwest Coast Native people continued to make art during the painful era of colonization, often subtly expressing resistance to their oppressors and demonstrating the resilience of their heritage. Integrating the art's development with historical events following contact with Euro-Americans sheds light on the creativity of artists as they appropriated and transformed foreign elements into uniquely Indigenous statements. A new chapter discusses contemporary artists, including Marianne Nicholson, Nicholas Galanin, Lawrence Paul Yuxweluptun, and Sonny Assu, who address pressing issues ranging from Indigenous sovereignty and destruction of the environment to the power of Native women and efforts to work with non-Natives to heal the wounds of racism and discrimination.
