Historically, artwork has played a powerful role in shaping settler
colonial subjectivity and the political imagination of Westphalian
sovereignty through the canonization of particular visual artworks,
aesthetic theories, and art institutions' methods of display.
Engaging directly with Indigenous contemporary artists, this book
makes the case that decolonial aesthetics is a form of knowledge
production that calls attention to the foundational violence of
settler colonialism in the formation of the world order of
sovereign states. Contemporary Indigenous artists' projects that
engage with the political violences of settler colonialism
demonstrate how artwork can play a key role in decolonizing
political imagination and academic knowledge production about
territorial sovereignty and in Indigenous peoples' reclamations of
relationships with traditional lands and waterways. This book
contributes a transnational feminist intersectional analysis of
artwork as a powerful force in world politics and argues that
contemporary artwork is a site of knowledge production that
provides vital insights for scholars of world politics. The
objective is to contribute to IR debates on aesthetics,
anarchy/hierarchy in world ordering, and structure/agency as well
as to contribute to public conversations on the politics of
reconciliation between Indigenous peoples and non-Indigenous
settlers in global contexts.
