ART NOW - Ruth Phillips Speaks March 6th, 2015 at Noon in the Recital Hall
“Another Part of the Circle”: Positioning the Native Modern and the Contemporary Indigenous In and Out of (Art) History
This lecture explores works made to pay homage to Norval Morrisseau, a very significant First Nations artist. Examining the connection of works by 20th and 21st century artists with diverse practices allows us to consider intergenerational relationships and rethink art historical periodizations using Cree playwright Tomson Highway’s description of life and death as a journey to “another part of the circle.”
