Overview

Don't look now, but while America's critical establishment was busy waging a culture war over identity politics, the next generation of artists simply moved on. In Remix: New Modernities in a Post-Indian World, artists and curators Joe Baker and Gerald McMaster bring together the work of fifteen artists of mixed Native/non-Native heritage from the United States, Canada, and Mexico to create a mini-museum for a post-race, post-ethnicity, post-Indian world. Personal and political, this art and the accompanying texts raise issues that resonate far beyond the American art scene--questions about the meaning of ethnic and racial identity in an increasingly global society, the tension between self-expression and the templates of mass culture, and individuals' freedom to adapt or reject elements of tradition without losing their claim on the past. Through words and images, Remix challenges readers interested in art and criticism to question the meaning of cultural identity in our complex, fluid age.
