But since I didn't use the phrase "Native art" in the posting, this explanation is irrelevant.<BR/><BR/>FYI, this blog covers material <I>about</I> Natives as well as <I>by</I> Natives. The exhibit was an example of an item about Natives.<BR/><BR/>No one said the non-Native artists' stance on Natives is "legit." Nor am I claiming that my interpretation of their stance is legit. Their stance and my interpretation of it are what they are--no more and no less.<BR/><BR/>I've posted items on Lichtenstein before--for instance, <A HREF="http://www.bluecorncomics.com/2006/06/lichtenstein-inspired-by-indians.html" REL="nofollow">Lichtenstein Inspired by Indians</A>. I've also posted many items on legitimate Native artists. That mixture will continue to be the policy here at Newspaper Rock.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01478763837213733775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-64617502419659890632008-11-25T21:09:00.000-08:002008-11-25T21:09:00.000-08:00...This not "native" art. it is "native-influenced......This not "native" art. it is "native-influenced." Like some earlier works of Roy Lichtenstein. A nice try but NO cigar. They SAY it's about misappropriation but IT IS misappropriation of the highest degree. Just because they show in a gallery in London does not make thier stance on "native" life legit. It just means they've "made it".<BR/>In the mean time Native artists struggle in the "natural history museum ghettos" that the SMithsonian, The Heard and others have creAted for "our" art.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
