Publisher: Vancouver, British Columbia : University of British Columbia Press

Medium: Library - Book (including soft-cover and pamphlets)

Subjects: Indigenous; Indigenous Art; Indigenous Photography; Politics; Heritage; Colonialism

Abstract: Adjusting the Lens explores the role of photography in contemporary renegotiations of the past and in Indigenous art activism. In moving and powerful case studies, contributors analyze photographic practices and heritage related to Indigenous communities in Canada, Australia, Greenland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and the United States. In the process, they call attention to how Indigenous people are using old photographs in new ways to empower themselves, revitalize community identity, and decolonize the colonial record. Adjusting the Lens presents original research in this emerging field in Indigenous photography studies, juxtaposing the historical and the contemporary across a range of geographically and culturally distinctive contexts. The transnational perspective of this exciting collection challenges old ways of thinking and meaningfully advances the crucially important project of reclamation. -- Provided by publisher

Abstract: This collection offers a unique contribution to the scholarship of Indian art in that it documents the effects of the transition period (roughly 1880-1940) on the art of an Indian people--in this case, the Blackfeet. In 1952 the collection was divided; half of it was given to the Museum of the Plains Indian, and the other half was retained by the Northwest Area Foundation. This catalogue that reunites the collection contains four essays, and illustrates more than 400 objects, most of which are Blackfeet. (from Abe Books)
