ENVS 327 - Indigenous Environmentalism Next Offered: Fall 2019
Semester Offered: First Semester Full Course Credits: 4 credits Attribute: 2AR,2SS, CD
This seminar will investigate how the vitality of indigenous art is evidence of an extraordinary story of survival in the time of social, political, and environmental challenges. Through analyses of artworks and communication with indigenous artists from Japan and North America, we will explore how the visual arts have long played a critical role as carriers of cultural identity within global indigenous societies. Their artistic imaginations are among the most eloquent articulations of identities and struggles for sovereignty, resilience, and environmentalism. The course will also elucidate the problems of how these arts have been represented in museums and scholarly writings.
