Summary:
The anthology comprises two distinct narrative sections, temporal structures, and points of view: the River and the Forest. The river is a kind of timeline, a sentence, a thread (of water) winding its way through the book, exploring indigenous thought and histories, issues of memory, erasure, rights and cultural practice, as well as the notion of ancestors and activism. The space of the forest, meanwhile, is represented as one of oral testimony and conversation, of voices speaking inside the present, in a kind of circular time in which past and future both impress upon and constitute the current uncertain moment. These voices include recorded conversations with elders, shamans, artists, and thinkers, as well as poetry, oral testimony, and artistic works from Amazonia that use the forest as both ground and cover.

Faisant suite à des expositions, des performances, des résidences d’artistes et des discussions mises en place lors du Projet Tiohtìa :ke (2017-2019) du Collectif des commissaires autochtones, ces textes honorent les relations et les affinités qui sont au cœur de ces pratiques en arts visuels. Par la diversité des points de vue et les enjeux soulevés par ces écrits, ce livre pose des questions cruciales sur l’avenir des arts autochtones et ouvre la porte à des dialogues longtemps attendus au Québec qui, nous l’espérons, permettront de créer de réels changements positifs. Il est maintenant temps de plonger dans ces imaginaires collectifs éblouissants et de nager dans les eaux ondulantes de ces mémoires résilientes.

Summary:
In the interwar period and immediately following World War II, the U.S. government promoted the vision of a modern, progressive, and democratic Latin America and worked to cast the region as a partner in the fight against fascism and communism. This effort was bolstered by the work and products of many institutions, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York. Using modern architecture to imagine a Latin America under postwar U.S. leadership, MoMA presented blockbuster shows, including Brazil Builds (1943) and Latin American Architecture since 1945 (1955), that deployed racially coded aesthetics and emphasized the confluence of ''Americanness'' and ''modernity'' in a globalizing world. Delving into the heated debates of the period and presenting never-before-published internal documents and photos from the museum and the Nelson A. Rockefeller archives, Patricio del Real is the first to fully address MoMA’s role in U.S. cultural imperialism and its consequences through its exhibitions on Latin American art and architecture.

Summary:
During the last five decades we have witnessed an increase in activity among artists identifying themselves as Sami, the only recognised indigenous people of Scandinavia. At the same time, art and duodji (traditional Sami art and craft) have been organized and institutionalized, not least by the Sami artists themselves. ''Sami art and aesthetics'' discusses and highlights these developments and places them in historical and contemporary contexts for an international audience. At stake are complex, changing terms regarding the creative and the political agencies. The question is not how indigeneity, identity, people, art, duodji, and aesthetics correspond to conventional Western ideas, rather it is how they interact with the Sami and their neighbouring cultures and societies. The volume is written by some of the foremost art historians and literary scholars in Sami art, craft, architecture, culture, and indigenous studies. Artists presented include Johan Turi, Ivar Jaks, Outi Pieski, Folke Fjellstrom, Katarina Pirak Sikku, Geir Tore Holm, and Silje Figenschou Thoresen.

As an acronym, it also speaks to our collective vision for Qaumajuq as a place for Inuit to work together towards an exciting new future in the arts, foregrounded by our shared culture and language. The exhibition includes approximately 100 works of art made by 91 artists—from the 1940s to the present—including works from the WAG and Government of Nunavut collections, fifteen commissioned artworks, and loans from across Canada, Alaska and Greenland. INUA is curated by four Inuit and Inuvialuit curators, representing the four regions of Inuit homelands in Canada today. From east to west, they are: Dr. Heather Igloliorte (Nunatsiavut); asinnajaq (Nunavik); Krista Ulujuk Zawadski (Nunavut) and Kablusiak (Inuvialuit Nunangit Sannaiqtuaq). It is also supported by many other Inuk contributors; Project Manager Jocelyn Piirainen; Exhibition Designer Nicole Luke; Graphic Designer Mark Bennett; Educator Kayla Bruce; and WAG Board Member & Indigenous Advisory Circle senior member, Theresie Tungilik.

Spectacular, translucent models give an impression of the complex spatial structure of the spaces carved into the rock, accompanied by large-format photos, plans, and descriptions. The exhibition also explores the historical situation when the stone quarries were still in operation on the one hand, and how the population, the craftsmen, and the administration have accepted and assess the newly created infrastructures today on the other. This publication accompanies the exhibition.

Or les Occidentaux ont atteint le Pole Nord il n'y a qu'un siècle, ce qui fait du "Nord" le produit d'un double regard, de l'extérieur — les représentations, surtout occidentales — et de l'intérieur — les cultures nordiques (inuites, scandinaves, cries, etc.). Les premières étant souvent simplifiées et les secondes méconnues, si l'on souhaite étudier le "Nord" dans une perspective d'ensemble, nous devons donc poser deux questions : comment définir le Nord par l'imaginaire ? Selon quels principes éthiques devons-nous considérer les cultures nordiques pour en avoir une vue complète, incluant notamment celles qui ont été minorées par le Sud ? Nous répondrons ici à ces deux questions, d'abord en définissant l'imaginaire du Nord, puis en proposant un programme intégrateur pour "recomplexifier" l'Arctique culturel.

Le Nord est un espace imaginé et représenté depuis des siècles par les artistes et les écrivains du monde occidental, ce qui a mené, au fil du temps et de l'accumulation successive de couches de discours, à la création d'un "imaginaire du Nord" — que ce Nord soit celui de la Scandinavie, du Groenland, de la Russie ou du Grand Nord, ou encore des pôles. Or les Occidentaux ont atteint le Pole Nord il n'y a qu'un siècle, ce qui fait du "Nord" le produit d'un double regard, de l'extérieur — les représentations, surtout occidentales — et de l'intérieur — les cultures nordiques (inuites, scandinaves, cries, etc.). Les premières étant souvent simplifiées et les secondes méconnues, si l'on souhaite étudier le "Nord" dans une perspective d'ensemble, nous devons donc poser deux questions : comment définir le Nord par l'imaginaire ? Selon quels principes éthiques devons-nous considérer les cultures nordiques pour en avoir une vue complète, incluant notamment celles qui ont été minorées par le Sud ? Nous répondrons ici à ces deux questions, d'abord en définissant l'imaginaire du Nord, puis en proposant un programme intégrateur pour "recomplexifier" l'Arctique culturel.
