The first American national museum designed and run by indigenous
peoples, the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of the
American Indian in Washington DC opened in 2004. It represents both
the United States as a singular nation and the myriad indigenous
nations within its borders. Constructed with materials closely
connected to Native communities across the continent, the museum
contains more than 800,000 objects and three permanent galleries
and routinely holds workshops and seminar series.
This first comprehensive look at the National Museum of the
American Indian encompasses a variety of perspectives, including
those of Natives and non-Natives, museum employees, and outside
scholars across disciplines such as cultural studies and criticism,
art history, history, museum studies, anthropology, ethnic studies,
and Native American studies. The contributors engage in critical
dialogues about key aspects of the museum's origin, exhibits,
significance, and the relationship between Native Americans and
other related museums.
