Description

Reexamining European engagements with Indigenous art and its presence in contemporary culture, this book explores the complex history of colonial appropriation and its ongoing impact.

The arts of Africa, Oceania, and Native America have long inspired modernist artists, but what does this say about Western engagement with Indigenous cultures? This new edition of Possessions offers a nuanced perspective on diversity and race, giving voice to Indigenous artists and their continued presence in contemporary art.
