Janet Catherine Berlo lecture: "Not Native Art? Replication, Misrepresentation, Forgery, and Other Vexed Identities"

In the twenty-first century, scholars, collectors, and artists all must grapple with ethical issues concerning who has the right to make and/or represent Native art. Yet the history of the making of First Nations art is riddled with misrepresentations and even forgeries, many of which have not been fully explored nor unmasked in the literature on these topics. This lecture, derived from a book-in-progress on the topic, will focus on Indigenous artistry of the Northwest Coast, and the 카지노 게임 컬렉션�vexed identities카지노 게임 컬렉션� of some of its makers.
