This companion consists of chapters that focus on and bring forward
critical theories and productive methodologies for Indigenous art
history in North America. This book makes a major and original
contribution to the fields of Indigenous visual arts, professional
curatorial practice, graduate-level curriculum development, and
academic research. The contributors expand, create, establish and
define Indigenous theoretical and methodological approaches for the
production, discussion, and writing of Indigenous art histories.
Bringing together scholars, curators, and artists from across the
intersecting fields of Indigenous art history, critical museology,
cultural studies, and curatorial practice, the companion promotes
the study and dissemination of Indigenous art and stimulates new
conversations on such key areas as visual sovereignty and
self-determination; resurgence and resilience; land-based,
embodied, and nation-specific knowledges; epistemologies and
ontologies; curatorial and museological methodologies; language;
decolonization and Indigenization; and collaboration, consultation,
and mentorship.
Qummut Qukiria! celebrates art and culture within and beyond
traditional Inuit and Sami homelands in the Circumpolar Arctic --
from the continuance of longstanding practices such as storytelling
and skin sewing to the development of innovative new art forms such
as throatboxing (a hybrid of traditional Inuit throat singing and
beatboxing). In this illuminating book, curators, scholars,
artists, and activists from Inuit Nunangat, Kalaallit Nunaat,
Sapmi, Canada, and Scandinavia address topics as diverse as Sami
rematriation and the revival of the ladjogahpir (a Sami woman's
headgear), the experience of bringing Inuit stone carving to a
workshop for inner-city youth, and the decolonizing potential of
Traditional Knowledge and its role in contemporary design and
beyond. Qummut Qukiria! showcases the thriving art and culture of
the Indigenous Circumpolar peoples in the present and demonstrates
its importance for the revitalization of language, social
wellbeing, and cultural identity.

AwardNunatsiavut, the Inuit region of Canada that achieved
self-government in 2005, produces art that is distinct within the
world of Canadian and circumpolar Inuit art. The world's most
southerly population of Inuit, the coastal people of Nunatsiavut
have always lived both above and below the tree line, and Inuit
artists and craftspeople from Nunatsiavut have had access to a
diverse range of Arctic and Subarctic flora and fauna, from which
they have produced a stunningly diverse range of work. Artists from
the territory have traditionally used stone and woods for carving;
fur, hide, and sealskin for wearable art; and saltwater seagrass
for basketry, as well as wool, metal, cloth, beads, and paper. In
recent decades, they have produced work in a variety of
contemporary art media, including painting, drawing, printmaking,
photography, video, and ceramics, while also working with
traditional materials in new and unexpected ways. SakKijAcjuk: Art
and Craft from Nunatsiavut is the first major publication on the
art of the Labrador Inuit. Designed to accompany a major touring
exhibition organized by The Rooms Provincial Art Gallery of St.
John's, the book features more than 80 reproductions of work by 45
different artists, profiles of the featured artists, and a major
essay on the art of Nunatsiavut by Heather Igloliorte. SakKijAcjuk
-- "to be visible" in the Nunatsiavut dialect of Inuktitut --
provides an opportunity for readers, collectors, art historians,
and art aficionados from the South and the North to come into
intimate contact with the distinctive, innovative, and always
breathtaking work of the contemporary Inuit artists and
craftspeople of Nunatsiavut.

This description is for the French edition. Le Nunatsiavut, region
inuite du Canada qui possede une administration autonome depuis
2005, a une production artistique a part dans le monde de l'art
canadien et de l'art inuit circumpolaire. Population inuite la plus
meridionale au monde, le peuple cotier du Nunatsiavut a toujours
vecu a cheval sur la limite forestiere, et les artistes et artisans
inuits du Nunatsiavut ont eu acces a une flore et une faune
arctique et subarctique tres diversifiees, a partir desquelles ils
ont cree des uvres d'une surprenante variete. Les artistes du
territoire se sont traditionnellement servis de la pierre et du
bois pour sculpter, de la fourrure, du cuir et de la peau de phoque
pour l'art mobilier et des graminees marines pour la vannerie,
ainsi que de la laine, du metal, du tissu, des perles et du papier.
Plus recemment, ils ont travaille avec des techniques que l'on
retrouve en art contemporain, comme la peinture, le dessin, la
gravure, la photographie, la video et la ceramique, sans pour
autant delaisser les materiaux traditionnels, utilises de maniere
novatrice et inusitee. SakKijajuk. Art et artisanat du Nunatsiavut
est la premiere publication d'importance sur l'art des Inuits du
Labrador. Ecrit pour accompagner une exposition itinerante majeure
concue par The Rooms Provincial Art Gallery Division de St. John's,
l'ouvrage comprend plus de 80 reproductions d'uvres de 45 artistes,
une presentation de ces derniers et un essai de fond sur l'art au
Nunatsiavut signe par la commissaire Heather Igloliorte. SakKijajuk
"etre visible" - prendre sa place-dans le dialecte inuktitut du
Nunatsiavut) constitue une occasion unique pour les lecteurs,
collectionneurs, historiens de l'art et amateurs d'art du Sud comme
du Nord de creer une relation particuliere avec le travail
different, novateur et toujours saisissant des artistes et artisans
inuits contemporains du Nunatsiavut.
