Description: Preoccupied by Dare Turner, Leila Grothe Interrogates the colonial underpinnings of museumsPublished on the occasion of the "Preoccupied: Indigenizing the Museum" initiative at the Baltimore Museum of Art, this book centers Native artist voices and challenges collective understandings of Native peoples pivotal role in North American history. The written and visual contributions address and refute the oppressive and pervasive hierarchies of colonialism upon which museums are based. The book features essays by heather ahtone (Chickasaw / Choctaw), Paul Chaat Smith (Comanche), and John Lukavic; newly commissioned poetry by Heid E. Erdrich (Ojibwe); a comic conceived, written, and illustrated by Weyodi Old Bear (Comanche), Dale Deforest (Diné), and Lee Francis IV (Pueblo of Laguna); and transcripts of roundtable discussions with contemporary Native artists. Fifty plates spanning a range of media from monographic and thematic exhibitions showcase both historically significant works from the BMAs collection and the works of living artists, many of whom offer their perspectives in the catalog, including Julie Buffalohead (Ponca Tribe of Oklahoma), Dana Claxton (Lakota First Nations-Wood Mountain), Nicholas Galanin (Tlingit and Unangax), Duane Linklater (Omaskêko Ininiwak), Cannupa Hanska Luger (Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara, and Lakota / Three Affiliated Tribes of Fort Berthold), Alan Michelson (Mohawk / Six Nations of the Grand River), Caroline Monnet (Anishinaabe/French), Laura Ortman (White Mountain Apache), Kevin Pourier (Oglala Sioux), Rose B. Simpson (Santa Clara Pueblo), Kay WalkingStick (Cherokee Indian), and Dyani White Hawk (Siáu Lakota). The work offers an important contribution to current global conversations around the decolonization of museums. FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Dare Turner is an enrolled member of the Yurok Tribe of California and curator of Indigenous art at the Brooklyn Museum. Leila Grothe is associate curator of contemporary art at the Baltimore Museum of Art. Review "There are many reasons to celebrate this catalog, but Dare Turners story of her great-uncle Harry "Timm" Williams alone is worth a read . . . How rare it is to find such honest, complicated writing about art, and in this essay, like much of the book, you feel the winds of new energy that will continue to lift Native and Indigenous art to the fore of conversations around contemporary art, particularly in North America."-- "Hyperallergic" Promotional Interrogates the colonial underpinnings of museums Details ISBN0912298022 Author Leila Grothe Pages 160 Publisher Baltimore Museum of Art Year 2024 ISBN-13 9780912298023 Format Hardcover Publication Date 2024-05-07 Imprint Baltimore Museum of Art Subtitle Indigenizing the Museum Place of Publication Baltimore Country of Publication United States Edited by Leila Grothe Illustrations 15 Illustrations, color; 50 Plates, color Audience Professional & Vocational US Release Date 2024-05-07 ISBN-10 0912298022 UK Release Date 2024-05-07 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
