This exhibition seeks to radically expand and reposition the narrative of American art since 1950 by charting a history of the development of contemporary indigenous art from the United States and Canada, beginning when artists moved from more regionally-based conversations and practices to national and international contemporary art contexts. The accompanying book documents and expands on the exhibition's themes and includes essays by art historians and reflections by the artists in the collection. Also included are key contemporary writings from the 1950s onward by artists, scholars, and critics investigating the themes of transculturalism and pan-Indian identity, traditional practices conducted in radically new ways, displacement, forced migration, shadow histories, the role of personal mythologies as a means to reimagine the future, and more. As both a survey of the development of indigenous art from the 1950s to the present and a consideration of Native artists within contemporary art more broadly, the volume expands the definition of American art and sets the tone for future considerations of the subject. It is an importabnt resource for any institution or individual with an interest in contemporary Native American art and in ongoing scholarly considerations of the American contemporary art landscape at large.
