One of today's most important documentary filmmakers, Alanis
Obomsawin has dedicated her life's work to shining a light on the
injustices experienced by Canada's Indigenous peoples. This
retrospective monograph features an extensive interview with
Obomsawin and includes images and written reflections on her entire
career, including her most recent series devoted to the rights of
Indigenous children. Never shying away from controversy,
Obomsawin's films have played a critical role in exposing ongoing
systemic bias toward Indigenous populations-from fishing rights and
education to health care and treaty violations. Obomsawin is also a
graphic artist, and she incorporates her often dream-inspired
etchings and prints into many of her films. The book includes
illuminating essays exploring Obomsawin's practice and mission as
well as personal commentary from collaborators, archival material,
and photographs from the filmmaker's personal life and professional
practice. As Obomsawin approaches her ninth decade of life-fifth
behind the camera-this beautifully illustrated record of her
astounding body of work is an inspiring celebration of the power of
film to change the course of history. Authors include Karrmen Crey,
Richard Fung, Monika Kin Gagnon, Candice Hopkins, Jessica L.
Horton, Elizabeth Povinelli, Lisa Steele, and Jesse Wente.
Five decades of work by groundbreaking Indigenous artist Jaune
Quick-to-See Smith Throughout her career as artist, activist, and
educator, Jaune Quick-to-See Smith (b. 1940) has forged a personal
yet accessible visual language she uses to address environmental
destruction, war, genocide, and the misreading of the past. An
enrolled Salish member of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai
Nation, Smith cleverly deploys elements of abstraction,
neo-expressionism, and pop, fusing them with Indigenous artistic
traditions to upend commonly held conceptions of historical
narratives and illuminate absurdities in the formation of dominant
culture. Her drawings, prints, paintings, and sculptures blur
categories and question why certain visual languages attain
recognition, historical privilege, and value, reflecting her belief
that her “life’s work involves examining contemporary life in
America and interpreting it through Native ideology.” Also
central to Smith’s work and thinking is the land and she
emphasizes that Native people have always been part of the land:
“These are my stories, every picture, every drawing is telling a
story. I create memory maps.” The publication illustrates nearly
five decades of Smith’s work in all media, accompanied by essays
and short texts by contemporary Indigenous artists and scholars on
each of Smith’s major bodies of work. Distributed for Whitney
