Remix : new modernities in a post-Indian world

Baker, Joe, 1946- (editor.). McMaster, Gerald, 1953- (editor.). Heard Museum. (Added Author). National Museum of the American Indian (U.S.). George Gustav Heye Center. (Added Author).

Summary: "In Remix: New Modernities in a Post-Indian World, artists and curators Joe Baker (Choctaw) and Gerald McMaster (Plains Cree) bring together the work of fifteen artists of mixed Native/non-Native heritage from the United States, Canada, and Mexico to create a mini-museum of the here and now in contemporary Native art. Personal and political, this art and the accompany texts raise issues that resonate far beyond the American art scene--questions about the meaning of ethnic and racial identity in an increasingly global society; the tension between self-expression and the templates of mass culture; and individuals' freedom to adapt or reject elements of tradition without losing their claim on the past.
