Possessions: Indigenous Art/Colonial Culture
This book focuses on the distinctive situation of the settler society - countries in which large numbers of Europeans made their home, displacing, outnumbering, but never entirely eclipsing native peoples. In this dynamic of dispossession and resistance, settler artists and designers have drawn on indigenous motifs and styles in their search for national distinctiveness. Yet powerful indigenous art traditions have also been used to assert the presence of native peoples and their prior claim to sovereignty. Cultural exchange proves to be a two-way process, and an unpredictable one: much contemporary indigenous art draws on modern Western art, while affirming ancestral values and rejecting the European appropriation of tribal culture.
