Edward S. Curtis dedicó su vida a capturar la esencia de los pueblos nativos de Norteamérica antes de que su cultura se desvaneciera. Sus fotos no solo documentaron la historia, sino que la inmortalizaron.

Art Bridges.(Will Wison / B&W photography)For 30 years, Edward S. Curtis photographed Native Americans living in the early 20th century.His pictures, which documented the daily lives and customs of many tribes, would later leave him with a complicated legacy: some claiming that his portrayal of Native American life reduced his subjects to a stereotype.Today, Diné photographer Will Wilson, who is a citizen of the Navajo Nation, is offering a new lens through which to view indigenous communities in an ongoing project known as the critical indigenous photographic exchange, which is currently on view at the Sun Valley Museum of Art.Wilson joined Idaho Matters to talk more.
Today's podcast is a little different because I went to the Western Spirit in Scottsdale and we filmed Dr. Larry Len Peterson give a lecture. He just released his new book, "Edward Curtis:Printing the Legends." It's a great book, and he took us through Curtis's life for over an hour. I would recommend watching this one so you can see the different slides and things that he's talking about on YouTube, but also you can just listen to it. He's got a great voice.It's very interesting and he has an encyclopedic knowledge on the West and not only about Edward S. Curtis, but how the people in his orbit all fit in. So it was wonderful to be able to watch it live and hear it and I wanted to share it with my audience. Dr. Larry Len Peterson on Art Dealer Diaries Podcast episode 295.
Pour son dernier récit « Alaska, l'ultime frontière », la journaliste et autrice française Marie-Hélène Fraïssé continue d'arpenter ces sentiers amérindiens qu'elle aime tant partager.

Pendant des décennies, la reporter et productrice radio à France Culture, a sillonné l'Amérique du Nord et les recoins de son histoire coloniale, prenant à revers les mythes hollywoodiens de la conquête et donnant à entendre surtout, des voix autochtones longtemps silenciées. En creusant ce sillon amérindien profond, sensible, elle n'aura de cesse d'interroger cette fameuse rencontre entre Premières Nations et colons européens, d'inverser le miroir aussi. Pour son dernier voyage, Marie-Hélène Fraïssé, partie de Vancouver à Anchorage, a fait le choix du temps long et de la rencontre, sans filet ni ordre de mission. Au gré des rotations de ferry, elle se fait alors passagère dans cet « inside passage » ou passage de l'intérieur, de la côte canadienne à l'Alaska, parmi une myriade d'îles, de fjords, de glaciers et de chenaux, où la pureté et la grandeur des paysages lui offrent une certaine consolation, « alors qu'une perte récente [lui] déchirait le coeur ». Dans son récit qu'elle nous livre bien des années après ce voyage conçu comme « une entreprise de détachement, d'effacement, de déprise », l'échappée n'est pas tout à fait solitaire.

I had Dr. Larry Len Peterson on today, and we're discussing his new book "Edward S. Curtis, Printing the Legends: Looking at Shadows in a West Lit Only by Fire" it's a terrific book. I read this whole book and I'm going to read it again. There's just so much information, not only about Edward Curtis, but about that whole time frame from 1860 to 1945. All the big players, whether it's J.P. Morgan or Buffalo Bill or Custer, and even the Indian boarding school systems. If you're interested in Curtis, this podcast is a must-listen. The other component that makes this project so important is the array of beautiful reproductions within the book. Did I mention he only printed 1,000 copies? It's not going to be available for long and it's going to be one of those great collector items.Dr. Peterson is uniquely positioned to write a book like this. He's a great author. He's won dozens of awards and he is a former physician who has written and published many research papers in his previous area of expertise. He's just one of these polymath individuals that you're lucky you get to meet and have in your life.Fortunately, I was lucky enough to be able to meet Dr. Larry Len Peterson and have been working with him on occasion. I'm glad I had the opportunity to spend time with this book and delve into the subject of Edward Curtis with an expert. So I hope you enjoy. It's a two-parter. This is part two.

This week on Listening to America, Clay Jenkinson interviews professional photographers John and Coleen Graybill of Buena Vista, Colorado, about the life and achievement of Edward S. Curtis. Curtis took 40,000 dry glass plate photographs of Native Americans between 1900 and 1935, and published 20 volumes of his portraits, landscape photographs, musical notations, and a gigantic amount of ethnographic prose. John is the great great grandson of Edward Curtis. The Graybills are traveling the West photographing descendants of individuals that Curtis photographed, and interviewing them on video about their lives and their heritage. They have released two books of previously unpublished Curtis photographs. It's an amazing story of love, integrity, and perseverance.
Ellen Mueller is an artist based in Minneapolis. She recommends “Im/perfect Slumbers,” on view in the window galleries and skyway entrance of the Minnesota Museum of American Art through August 20. “You can be walking down the street, and you will get the privilege of passing by several very cool artworks,” Mueller says. She especially likes the work of Peng Wu, “who has some really great vinyl installations.” Mueller also recommends Rachel Breen's recycled textiles and fiber creations and Katya Oicherman's work. According to Mueller, the theme of the show is sleep, and especially disrupted sleep, “which everybody can connect to.” Jenny Fogarty lives in Le Center, Minn. and attended an exhibition of photographs by Edward S. Curtis, who was raised partially in Le Sueur County and whose work often focused on Native American subjects. “I went to go see the exhibit, not really expecting much. And I walked in and I was floored,” Fogarty explains. She was especially struck by an early 20th century photograph of Nez Percé tribal leader Chief Joseph. “I did a drawing (of him) when I was in college,” she says. According to Fogarty, Curtis's images offer rich details from their subject's life, including “the arts, from the boats to the baskets … it's just a very awesome exhibit.” The exhibit will be on display through the rest of the year at 48 N Park Ave in Le Center, Minn. Full Circle Theater is doing a production called “Antigonick,” which is based on Sophocles' (spelled Sophokles in this production) “Antigone.” Twin Cities theatermaker, improviser and writer Shanan Custer says she is excited that the translation is “new and fresh.” Custer is also a fan of Meskwaki actor Oogie_Push, who stars in the title role of Antigone. “I'm just excited for what looks like a lot of movement and a lot of really beautiful storytelling,” Custer says. The play runs through June 4 at the Mixed Blood Theatre in Minneapolis.

He also holds certifications from the Academy of Certified Archivists and the Harvard Extension School in nonprofit management. He has over twenty years of library, archive, and museum experience. ROBERT SWAIN GIFFORD American Landscape Painter December 23, 1840 – January 15, 1905 Kyle tells us that, “at age two, Robert Swain Gifford came to Fairhaven with his family from Nonamesset Island where he was born in 1840. He had developed a love of art by the time he met Albertus Van Beest as a teen. He would study with Van Beest and William Bradford before opening his own studio in New Bedford, Boston, and later New York.” “His artwork consisted of etchings, oil paintings, and watercolors. His landscapes were influenced by the Barbizon School of Painting. Gifford traveled to the western US and overseas to England, France, Spain, and Egypt creating landscapes of the places he visited. He would later take part in the Harriman Expedition of Alaska and the Bering Straight along with George Bird Grinnell, John Muir, Edward S. Curtis, and others.” Gifford served on the National Academy of Design Council and taught at the Cooper Union School. He died in 1905 in New York and is buried at Rural Cemetery in New Bedford. Several works by Gifford are on display at the Millicent Library in Fairhaven. His work may be seen in Fairhaven Town Hall, The Millicent Library, the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts, the New Bedford Whaling Museum, and the Kendall Whaling Museum.

Native Americans not only influenced the founding fathers, they also inspired the ‘founding mothers': 19th century women like Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucretia Mott, and Matilda Gage. These women paid taxes but could not vote, could not run for office, had no right of divorce, and should they separate from their husband, were returned to them by police like runaway slaves. Native women, on the other hand, were fully equal in their society and played an integral role in political affairs and in keeping harmony with nature. Learn the true story from Congresswoman Deb Haaland, one of only two Native American women newly elected to the US Congress, and Sally Roesch Wagner, author of Sisters in Spirit: Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Influence on Early American Feminists. _______________________________________________________________ Glenn Aparicio Parry, PhD, of Basque, Aragon Spanish, and Jewish descent, is the author of Original Politics: Making America Sacred Again (SelectBooks, 2020) and the Nautilus award-winning Original Thinking: A Radical Revisioning of Time, Humanity, and Nature (North Atlantic Books, 2015). Parry is an educator, ecopsychologist, and political philosopher whose passion is to reform thinking and society into a coherent, cohesive, whole. The founder and past president of the SEED Institute, Parry is currently the director of a grass-roots think tank, the Circle for Original Thinking and is debuting this podcast series of the same name in conjunction with Ecology Prime. He has lived in northern New Mexico since 1994. www.originalpolitics.us Congresswoman Deb Haaland serves New Mexico's First Congressional District and is one of the first Native American women serving in Congress. As a 35thgeneration New Mexican, single-mom, and organizer Haaland knows the struggles of New Mexico families, but she also knows how resilient and strong New Mexico communities are. In Congress she's a force fighting climate change and for renewable energy jobs as Vice Chair of the House Natural Resources Committee, a powerful supporter of military personnel, families, and veterans on the House Armed Services Committee, and continues to advocate for dignity, respect, and equality for all. Sally Roesch Wagner is a feminist pioneer, speaker, activist, and the author of several books, including Sisters in Spirit: Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Influence on Early American Feminists, and The Women's Suffrage Movement.

In this episode, the IRC team discussed the power of song in an Indigenous worldview. The discussion centers on the preservation of Love Songs by Edward S. Curtis and Claude Schaeffer and how these efforts allow us to examine these songs and context. Of interest is the spiritual power of songs in Indigenous worldview and how this they can be situated in a modern context. The question arises whether songs, as one of the most important parts of Indigenous spirituality and lifeway, can have a space in modern academics and research. How can Indigenous scholars and communities reclaim this knowledge authentically?

In 2007, Wilson won the Native American Fine Art Fellowship from the Eiteljorg Museum, and in 2010 was awarded a prestigious grant from the Joan Mitchell Foundation. Wilson created The Critical Indigenous Exchange because he was impatient with the way that American culture remains enamored with photographer Edward S. Curtis’s portraits. For many people even today, Native people remain frozen in time in the Curtis photos. Wilson is resuming the documentary mission of Curtis from the standpoint of a 21st century indigenous photographer, building a contemporary vision of Native North America.
August 30, 2014. What is creative nonfiction? What makes it creative? How do writers of this genre approach their subject matter and tackle some of its inherent challenges? National Endowment for the Arts Literature Director Amy Stolls moderated a discussion with creative nonfiction writers Paisley Rekdal and Eula Biss about their work and experiences with such issues as research, sticking to the facts, points of view and marketability. Speaker Biography: Award-winning author Paisley Rekdal is a writer of diverse scope, publishing work in such genres as contemporary nonfiction and poetry. She has been the recipient of many accolades, including a Guggenheim fellowship, the Amy Lowell Poetry Traveling Fellowship, a Village Voice Writers on the Verge Award, a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship, two Pushcart Prizes and a Fulbright fellowship. The daughter of a Chinese-American mother and a Norwegian-American father, her latest work, "Intimate: An American Family Photo Album" (Tupelo Press), blends genres of photo album, personal essay, poetry, memoir and historical documentary to create an innovative literary product. Through lenses of race, family, identity and society, this hybrid memoir narrates the stories of Rekdal's parents, the photographer Edward S. Curtis and Curtis's murdered Apsaroke guide, Alexander Upshaw. Speaker Biography: Eula Biss is an award-winning nonfiction author. She has been the recipient of a fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Rona Jaffe Writers' Award, the Pushcart Prize, the Graywolf Press Nonfiction Prize, the National Book Critics Circle Award and a 21st Century Award from the Chicago Public Library. She is following up her award-winning title "Notes from No Man's Land" with a new contemporary nonfiction book, "On Immunity: An Inoculation" (Graywolf). Inspired by the experiences and fears that accompany new motherhood, this fascinating text analyzes the myth and metaphor of medicine and immunization. Biss investigates what vaccines mean for children and larger society, exploring both historic and present implications, and also extending the conversation to meditate on ideas presented in Voltaire's "Candide," Bram Stoker's "Dracula" and other notable works. In addition to writing books and articles, Biss is also the founder and editor of Essay Press and a professor at Northwestern University.
