Heather Igloliorte – författare

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.

Winner, 2018 Canadian Museums Association Award of Outstanding Achievement in EducationShortlisted, 2018 Atlantic Publishers Marketing Association Best Atlantic Published Book 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.SakKijâjuk: 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.SakKijâjuk — "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, région inuite du Canada qui possède une administration autonome depuis 2005, a une production artistique à part dans le monde de l’art canadien et de l’art inuit circumpolaire. Population inuite la plus méridionale au monde, le peuple côtier du Nunatsiavut a toujours vécu à cheval sur la limite forestière, et les artistes et artisans inuits du Nunatsiavut ont eu accès à une flore et une faune arctique et subarctique très diversifiées, à partir desquelles ils ont créé des œuvres d’une surprenante variété.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 graminées marines pour la vannerie, ainsi que de la laine, du métal, du tissu, des perles et du papier. Plus récemment, ils ont travaillé avec des techniques que l’on retrouve en art contemporain, comme la peinture, le dessin, la gravure, la photographie, la vidéo et la céramique, sans pour autant délaisser les matériaux traditionnels, utilisés de manière novatrice et inusitée.SakKijâjuk. Art et artisanat du Nunatsiavut est la première publication d’importance sur l’art des Inuits du Labrador. Écrit pour accompagner une exposition itinérante majeure conçue par The Rooms Provincial Art Gallery Division de St. John’s, l’ouvrage comprend plus de 80 reproductions d’œuvres de 45 artistes, une présentation de ces derniers et un essai de fond sur l’art au Nunatsiavut signé par la commissaire Heather Igloliorte.SakKijâjuk « être 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 créer une relation particulière avec le travail différent, novateur et toujours saisissant des artistes et artisans inuits contemporains du Nunatsiavut.
