A Wendat, Nomad on the Road to Museums
Through the lens of a Wendat sociologist, this essay discusses the new mutations in museology in relation to aboriginal cultures. Introducing the aboriginal notion of « Americity’s global phenomenon » ( fait total d’Américité ) from the perspective of living archive and exhibition, the author overviews and analyses many exhibitions, both within international urban museums and local native communities. In conclusion, he proposes an artistic approach as living archive for the future.
