GAZING INTO THE REPRESENTATION OF INDIGENEITY IN INDIGENOUS CONTEMPORARY ART:
Reconciling via decolonizing aesthetics and curatorial practices?
Dr. Laura Singeot
From 2000 onwards, Indigenous contemporary art displayed a new reflective dimension : not only did artists represent their own perception of Indigeneity, but this also emphasized a change in curatorial practices as such pieces of contemporary art started to be integrated in and sometimes commissioned for primarily ethnographic exhibitions. From a colonial institution by excellence, the museum seemed to become also an agent for change: by implementing new curatorial practices, it enabled new voices to be heard and started to function as a teller of alternative histories, which definitely leave their imprint on the visitors’ experience of art.
