Unsettling Native Art Histories on the Northwest Coast

"A welcome addition to Northwest Coast art historical scholarship."—Alan Hoover, author of Southern Northwest Coast Indigenous Canoe Racing: A Brief History

"Unsettling Native Art Histories on the Northwest Coast is a definitive collection of writings that bring a conscious narrative of the past, present and future of Indigenous art. This collection of essays illustrates the thriving cultures that unsettle, entertain, inform, and challenge how art and culture from this diverse region are viewed and understood."—Sonny Assu, Interdisciplinary artist, Ligwiłda'xw of the Kwakwaka'wakw nations

"Unsettling Native Art Histories on the Northwest Coast models best practices for Indigenous art studies—and for Indigenous studies broadly. Together, accomplished Native and non-Native curators, scholars, and artist-intellectuals innovate methodological approaches while confronting ongoing legacies of settler colonialisms and academic appropriations. As a bonus, the book is beautifully designed and illustrated."—Chadwick Allen, author of Trans-Indigenous: Methodologies for Global Native Literary Studies
