| | Synopsis
|
"Unceded Territories is a ... review of the work of Lawrence Paul
Yuxweluptun, spanning thirty years of his painterly and polemical
practice. It places the artist's concerns in dialogue with this
moment in our shared histories. An artist of Cowichan and Okanagan
descent, Yuxweluptun lives and works on unceded Coast Salish
territories in Vancouver, British Columbia. He calls himself a
history painter, a monumentalist, a modernist. Impassioned in his
commitment to advance First Nations rights to the land and effect
change, Yuxweluptun fuses art with political action—he "paints
freedom and equality". This retrospective includes ... commentary
from Michael Turner, Lucy Lippard, Marcia Crosby, Glenn Alteen, a
short-story by Jimmie Durham. In an ... dialogue, curators Karen
Duffek and Tania Willard discuss the meaning of Yuxweluptun's
practice and place it in the context of the First Nations struggle
for autonomy, justice, and environmental preservation. In a ...
artist's statement, Yuxweluptun himself explains the essence of his
painting and the forces that drive his artistic and political life.
Published to accompany the exhibition at the University of British
Columbia Museum of Anthropology this volume includes 65 of
Yuxweluptun's paintings from the last three decades and will be a
lasting document of his art and activism." -OCLC.
