Visualizing Genocide
Author: Yve ChavezPublisher: University of Arizona Press
ISBN: 0816548005
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 297
Book Description
Visualizing Genocide examines how creative arts and memory institutions selectively commemorate or often outright ignore stark histories of colonialism. The essays confront outdated narratives and institutional methods by investigating contemporary artistic and scholarly interventions documenting settler colonialisms including land theft, incarceration, intergenerational trauma, and genocide. Interdisciplinary approaches, including oral histories, exhibition practices, artistic critiques, archival investigations, and public arts, are among the many decolonizing methods incorporated in contemporary curatorial practices. Rather than dwelling simply in celebratory appraisals of Indigenous survival, this unprecedented volume tracks how massacres, disease, removals, abrogated treaties, religious intolerance, theft of land, and relocation are conceived by contemporary academics and artists. Contributors address indigeneity in the United States, Norway, Canada, Australia, and the Caribbean in scholarly essays, poems, and artist narratives. Missions, cemeteries, archives, exhibitions, photography, printmaking, painting, installations, performance, music, and museums are documented by fourteen authors from a variety of disciplines and illustrated with forty-three original artworks. The authors offer honest critique, but in so doing they give hopeful and concrete strategies for the future. This powerful collection of voices employs Indigenous epistemologies and decolonial strategies, providing essential perspectives on art and visual culture. Contributors T. Christopher Aplin Emily Arthur Marwin Begaye Charlene Villaseñor Black Yve Chavez Iris Colburn Ellen Fernandez-Sacco Stephen Gilchrist John Hitchcock Michelle J. Lanteri Jérémie McGowan Nancy Marie Mithlo Anne May Olli Emily Voelker Richard Ray Whitman
