UNC-Chapel Hill's Kunstmuseum stellt Native American Kunst in den Mittelpunkt einer neuen Ausstellung

Bild: "Indian Gathering," ein Ölgemälde des Kiowa-Künstlers Stephen Mopope aus dem Jahr 1933 ist Teil der Wanderausstellung des Gilcrease Museums, die indianische Kunst zeigt. Am 16. Februar wurde im Ackland Art Museum der UNC-Chapel Hill eine neue Ausstellung zur Kunst der Native Americans eröffnet. Die Wanderausstellung mit etwa 75 Werken trägt den Titel Past Forward: Native American Art aus dem Gilcrease Museum. Das Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa, Oklahoma, besitzt eine Sammlung, die größtenteils von dem verstorbenen Thomas Gilcrease, einem Mitglied der Muscogee Nation, aufgebaut wurde. Das Ackland ist der erste von drei Ausstellungsorten in den USA, an dem die Wanderausstellung gezeigt wird. Ein Ölgemälde auf Leinwand zeigt eine Menschenmenge, die sich in einer Reihe aufstellt. Viele tragen grüne Kopfbedeckungen. Die Landschaft besteht aus Bergen im Hintergrund und lehmähnlichen Gebäuden. Mit freundlicher Genehmigung des Ackland Art Museum / Gilcrease Museum 1940 malte der Hopi-Künstler Fred Kabotie "Pueblo Green Corn Dance". Laut Peter Nisbet, dem stellvertretenden Direktor des Ackland Art Museums für kuratorische Angelegenheiten, umfasst die Ausstellung alte und zeitgenössische Kunstwerke von verschiedenen Stämmen, wie den Kiowa und Cherokee. Einige europäisch-amerikanische Kunstwerke sind ebenfalls Teil der Ausstellung, so Nisbet, um einen Dialog über den kulturellen Austausch zu fördern. Die Sammlung ist nicht nach Künstlern oder Zeitabschnitten geordnet, sondern nach vier Konzepten: Zeremonie, Souveränität, visuelle Abstraktion und Identität. "Es gibt viele Einstiegspunkte in diese Ausstellung, und das ist, glaube ich, eine ihrer Stärken", so Nisbet. "Es gibt diese Themen, über die wir sprechen. Es gibt die einzelnen Objekte selbst, die atemberaubend schön sein können. Das Ackland denkt auch über seine eigene Auseinandersetzung mit der Kunst der amerikanischen Ureinwohner nach. Es ist eine reichhaltige Ausstellung. In der Ausstellung sind Stücke zu sehen, die Tausende von Jahren alt sind, wie ein schmetterlingsförmiger Bannerstein, der auf mindestens 1000 v. Chr. zurückgeht. Etwa ein Viertel der Ausstellung besteht aus Werken, die in den letzten 50 Jahren entstanden sind, so Nisbet. "Moderne indianische Künstler unserer Zeit haben bewusst auf frühere Traditionen zurückgeblickt, um sie wiederzubeleben, um so ein kontinuierliches Gespräch mit der Vergangenheit zu führen", so Nisbet. "Der Titel der Ausstellung soll darauf anspielen." Ein Tempera-auf-Papier-Kunstwerk, das acht Menschen zeigt, die in einer Reihe stehen - vier im Vordergrund, vier im Hintergrund. Sie tragen kunstvolle Masken und farbenfrohe Kleidung (Gilcrease Museum) Waldo Mootzka, Hopi, 1903 - 1938, Bohnentanz, frühes 20. Jahrhundert, Tempera auf Papier. Gilcrease Museum, Tulsa, OK. Mit der Ausstellung im Ackland will das Museum unter anderem die Bekanntheit von Künstlern des Mittleren Westens erhöhen, die an der Ostküste weniger bekannt sind. "Die Ausstellung selbst soll zeigen, dass die Kunst der amerikanischen Ureinwohner nicht nur eine Facette der amerikanischen Kunst ist", so Nisbet. "Sie ist in gewisser Weise eine eigene Tradition. Sie hat ihre eigenen Stärken, ist aber auch ein wesentlicher Teil der breiteren Geschichte". Nisbet hofft, dass die Werke durch die Auseinandersetzung mit den Themen der Ausstellung beim Publikum an der Universität und im ganzen Bundesstaat Anklang finden, vor allem wenn man bedenkt, dass North Carolina die größte indianische Bevölkerung östlich des Mississippi hat. Hier leben die Occaneechi Band of the Saponi Nation, die Coharie, die Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, die Haliwa-Saponi, der Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina, die Meherrin, die Sappony, die Waccamaw Siouan und die Tuscarora. Zusätzlich zur Wanderausstellung wird das Ackland seine eigene Sammlung indianischer Kunst zeigen und interaktive Programme wie Führungen und wissenschaftliche Vorträge anbieten.

Happy Indigenous People's Day to...

... the Onöndowa’ga:’ and Hodenosauneega people whose land I was born on.

... the Eno, Sappony, and Shakori land I live on now.

... Indigenous people whose land has been claimed not only by the United States, but colonialist countries all over the world.

I see you. I hear you. I don't have much to give, but let me give you my time. Share with me what you wish, whether it be your stories, ways to support you, or nothing at all. On this Indigenous People's Day, and every day going forward, know that I will not only recognize this land as yours, but do everything in my power to help your land be returned.

The Three Sisters

Corn. Beans. Squash. Many Native American groups tell very different creation stories of these crops, which – as “sustainers of life” – meant sacredness. According to Shelia Wilson of the Sappony Tribe in North Carolina: The legend of “Three Sisters” originated when a woman of medicine who could no longer bear the fighting among her three daughters asked the Creator to help her find a way to…

I absolutely cannot stand the mentality of like "if u r white then u can never learn X language, eat X food, write characters that aren't white, etc. etc. etc." like... the 50's called, they want their segregation back. :/ Like I get that there are some ppl who are weird and fetishistic abt it but cultural sharing is not the same as cultural appropriation, and if we want more non-white characters that aren't bullshit stereotypes or jokes, then we gotta like... write those characters. The characters do not get written if u forbid ppl to write them. It should definitely be done in an informed way, but still. It's not exactly woke to insist that us whiteys never try to add some diversity to our stories. Bit counterproductive, innit?

To be far to this author, she is someone who is very active in writing circles and half white herself (she says as much. half white/half Sappony). Plus these blog posts were written in the early 2010's and I feel like a lot has changed since then. For one, most of the links are broken, and what remains talks about color blindness and the like.

I don't think I've heard color blindness really get brought up in like 3-4 years.

It does hit... wrong to see someone tell me "don't write this at all" but I can understand the sentiment a bit from someone who has been inundated with people miswriting such a large and varied amount of cultures. Because Indigenous cultures are so easily mishandled. From the fact that they are very guarded/closed to outsiders so a lot of people will just bullshit stuff they've heard through the pipeline and assume it's correct or not care enough to put in the research.

Literally read some really shitty stuff about a Navajo girl's grandfather would pull feathers from his headdress to give to her at significant moments (Navajo don't wear the headdresses we think of, that's more Plains regalia) and then she gave a white girl an eagle feather (it's illegal for non-Natives to own eagle feathers).

But yeah, I pretty much agree. Unfortunately the only way diversity is going to be truly normalized is if more white people include it in a meaningful, intelligent way. Since we know the fucking system is set against BIPOC voices. White people gotta show we want to listen to those voices and show it in our own work too. Otherwise we're just gonna keep recreating the MCU.

Saponi Tribe of North Carolina

Early Saponi Indians

“The Saponi or Sappony are an eastern Siouan tribe, who have long lived in North Carolina and Virginia. Their language appears to have been the same as the Tutelo to the extent that the people of the two tribes could readily understand each other. They were engaged in war with the Virginia settlers as early as 1654-56, the time of the attack by the Cherokee, probably in alliance with them. They were first mentioned by explorer, John Lederer in 1670 who placed them on a tributary of the upper Roanoke River. At that time, they were living with the Tutelo, but later when they were harassed by the Iroquois Indians, they moved to the junction of Staunton and Dan Rivers, where they settled in what is now Mecklenburg County, Virginia.

Many of them fought in the Tuscarora War against the British, Dutch, and German settlers from 1711 to 1715. By 1740, most of the tribe had traveled northward to Pennsylvania where they surrendered to the Iroquois and later joined them in New York. In 1753, the Cayuga tribe formally adopted the Saponi and Tutelo.

Most of the Iroquois sided with the British in the American Revolution and after the victory by the United States, the Saponi and Tutelo who had joined the Iroquois, fled to Canada. It appears, however, from a treaty made with the Cayuga at Albany, New York in 1780, that a remnant was still living with this tribe on the Seneca River. However, of those Saponi who did not travel with the rest when they went north, they continued live in the central Piedmont area straddling the North Carolina-Virginia border.

The Saponi were known for the unusual occurrence of blue and grey eye color in many of their people. Local legend has it that they might be a mixed remnant of the Lost Colony of Roanoke, but the Saponi do not comment on this legend.

Today, there are three groups of Saponi recognized by the state of North Carolina. The people known as the “Indians of Person County” were recognized by North Carolina in 1911 as an American Indian tribe. In 2003 they formally changed their name to Sappony. The Haliwa-Saponi is a group based chiefly in Halifax and Warren Counties, is was recognized by North Carolina in 1965. The Occaneechi Band of the Saponi Nation was recognized by the state of North Carolina in 2002.”

: i choose repentance over thanks-giving.

while i feel alone in my spirit, i know – unwavering – that i walk alongside truth and memory.

on this day, i renounce my own images to return space to the ones who were here before me. the ones who remain here, and who cannot be erased, who may never be forgotten; the ones who loved this land far before white feet ever touched here, whose blood and spirit and care form the shape of all that exists here today. i renounce an easy memory and embrace an honest, painful one.

today, and on all the days throughout, i commit to the tireless work of remembering, of digging these hands into the roots of tradition and uncovering all the wounds that live within.

i choose to remember darkness.

i choose to remember the soil. i choose to remember blood soaking these carolina forests and hills. i choose to remember rape and the violation of the earth. i choose to remember walking; i choose to remember the 2,200 miles. i choose to remember families, separated, screaming. i choose to remember people. i choose to remember names, faces. i choose to remember white terrorism before it was called terrorism. i choose to remember enslavement. i choose to remember grace mistaken for weakness. i choose to remember those who remember their own story.

i remember the coharie. the haliwa-saponi. the sappony. the cherokee. the waccamaw siouan. the meherrin. the lumbee. the occaneechi.

i ask that i know each spirit as i know myself, so that i may be forever near and unwavering in seeking our liberation.

i ask that the mother - the spirit of earth, herself - be both forgiving and swift in guiding all away from this illusion, that those who pass these days in laughter and abundance and indulgent consumption be eternally reminded of the suffering that came before, that remains. i invite those who call themselves kin to join me in the labor of remembering, in learning and abstaining until these days are undone; i ask that not one of us find rest until we are dreaming of a world returned.

i ask that the winds lend me their clarity; the water, her memory.

i ward myself against lies.

i ask for a fire which cleanses and returns sanctity to this ground, that i may live to see the collapse of the false colonies.

i choose witness over fear.

i choose accountability over assimilation. i choose awareness over comfort. i choose solitude over false togetherness. i choose agency over theft. i choose reparations over giving-back. i choose questions over confusion. i choose silence over laughter; i choose silence over joy.

i choose a silence which is loud. i lend my voice to amplify the voices of those who have long been speaking; and i dare not give thanks, to invoke the violence of saying thank you for what was not given. i ask forgiveness where i have taken what does not belong to me.

i renounce this day. i choose repentance over thanks-giving.

Tuesday Night Owls: Media coverage of Deb Haaland's ascent has flattened Native complexities

Night Owls is a themed open thread appearing at Daily Kos seven days a week. At The New Republic, Nick Martin (a citizen of the Sappony Tribe) writes—Deb Haaland’s Ascent and the Complicated Legacy of Native Representation. The congresswoman from New Mexico could make history if confirmed as head of the Department of the Interior. But there’s…

How do you rank each season and why do you rank them as so

My answer to that changes pretty frequently, TBH. Today, I’ll go with:

1. Murder House. I’m a little haunted by it to this very day. Those characters have really stuck with me, and I still think about them a lot.

2. Asylum. It does something that I don’t think any other AHS season does- really explore the later-in-life fallout from the terrible things the characters were put through. Jude is Jessica’s finest AHS performance. And it may well have the show’s most elaborate sets.

3. Hotel. It’s like an echo of MH. Lots of reasons for that. Also, March. Liz is Denis’s best performance, and Sally wasn’t Sarah’s typical role. Gaga and her outfits, okay. Hotel actually rivals Asylum for spectacular set design. The Addiction Demon is AHS’s scariest monster, even if it proved useless.

4. Freak Show. The production design was insane. I love the small town setting in the ‘50s. I’m generally interested in circuses and carnivals and the associated lore. Evan has rarely been sexier, IMO. It does unfortunately suffer from a lack of a driving story for too many episodes. 

5. Coven. There’s actually a lot that I love about this season. New Orleans, the coven house itself, the history of witchcraft, Danny Huston as the Axeman, Misty Day. Plenty of obvious problems, though. And poor Kyle.

6. Roanoke. There are things I really like about this season. Sappony House is a stunning set. The rural setting is nice. Some of the characters are AHS-style memorable- Cricket, EPM, Audrey. But the second half of the season just drops every interesting thing that the first half brought up to indulge in shaky-cam hillbilly torture and ends with a loud whimper. Maybe I just need to re-watch the season, but I remember the finale being fairly atrocious until the last few scenes that wrapped back around to the first half. I’m confused by the blood moon stuff, which seems to contradict established AHS rules. I hate that the season was abbreviated to 10 episodes.

How might I rank them tomorrow? Murder House and Asylum sometimes flip-flop. Coven, Freak Show, and Hotel kind of shift around. Roanoke is always last. LOL Where will Cult fit in? Hopefully near the top, but we’ll have to see.

Thanks for the ask!

The Saponi or Sappony are a Native American tribe historically based in the Piedmont of North Carolina and Virginia. They spoke the Siouan Tutelo-Saponi language, which was related to the languages of the Tutelo, Occaneechi, Monacan, Manahoac and other eastern Siouan peoples.
