- Summary
- "Dispels the traditional view that historical objects are artifacts and separate from contemporary Aboriginal practice. Rather, Aboriginal art from the late 1800s through the present is merged to highlight the ongoing links to tradition, history and culture. Honouring tradition brings new perspectives to both historical and contemporary works and creates a dialogue around the complexity of Aboriginal art from the northern plains and subarctic regions of Canada"--Page [21].
