"dear fellow settler colonizer," is a Minus Plato series, rebroadcast on Broken Boxes for STTLMNT Digital Occupation as resource archive directed towards education of settler ancestors who may like to more relationally engage with work created by and centering Indigenous artists, such as with the STTLMNT project. “The show will explore the transformative work of contemporary global Indigenous artists from the explicitly problematic perspective of the settler colonizer. By critically examining our complicity in ongoing structures of colonial violence, the show offers tools for settler colonizers to engage with Indigenous artmaking beyond positions of exploitation, appropriation and other harmful moves to innocence.” "This episode will discuss approaches to curriculum for global Indigenous arts from within and beyond the settler institutions of the university and the museum. In addition to an ongoing conversation on this topic with Cannupa Hanska Luger, concept artist of STTLMNT: Indigenous Digital Occupation, the episode centers on a narrative by Jaime Morse, educator for Indigenous Programs and Outreach at the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa. Focusing on her experience as an educator at the two large-scale exhibitions of global Indigenous art, Sakahàn (2013) and Àbadakone (2019), Morse describes the work of Sámi architect and artist Joar Nango (Sámi Architectural Library, 2019) at the latter as a space of gathering and knowledge exchange, not only for other artists in the exhibition, but also for Indigenous community members. At the beginning and end of the episode are two spoken word pieces by writer, artist and curator Taqralik Partridge, of Inuit, Scottish and Canadian heritage: ‘Decolonisation is a Pyramid Scheme' and ‘Untitled'. The former was included in a TV show created by Joar Nango and Ken Are Bongo called Post-Capitalist Architecture TV for Bergen Kunsthall, while the latter was included in NIRIN: 22nd Sydney Biennale, curated by Brook Andrew. ‘Untitled' was originally written following a performance by Indigenous Brazilian artist Denilson Baniwa in Toronto and Partridge agreed for it to be included in today's episode with a request for donations to support the South American Indigenous Network Emergency Fund – here is the link to donate: www.gofundme.com/f/south-american…k-emergency-fund " -Minus Plato

Season 2 opens with one of my favourite episodes. Day 105 Sydney, Day 0 Melbourne - as Melbourne locked down suddenly again in a second wave - we speak to artist Belinda as she gazes out onto Sydney Harbour the night that Melbourne locked down. She talks about the arts community in Australia in lockdown and the Sydney Biennale, the first time it has been curated by an Indigenous artist Brook Andrew - turned on its head at the very last minute as it coincided with lockdown. She talks about what happens to an artist's practice under stress, nurturing in a crisis and grieving and celebrating her father who died during the lockdown when gatherings were not permitted. She covers the fascinating changes happening in Australian society across states and the seen and unseen in all our lives that the pandemic will bring to light. https://www.smh.com.au/culture/art-and-design/aboriginal-artist-and-provocateur-brook-andrew-on-shaking-up-the-sydney-biennale-20190930-p52w6c.html You can follow Belinda and her work @belinda_brighthouse on instagram and at https://www.belindapiggott.com/ This episode was recorded on 8 July 2020.

SONIC ACTS FESTIVAL 2019 – HEREAFTER Elizabeth A. Povinelli – After the End, Stubborn Affects and Collective Practices 24 February – De Brakke Grond, Amsterdam, The Netherlands With an introduction by Mirna Belina. As many in the West look forward to a climate-induced end of times, huge areas of the human and nonhuman world have been struggling to exist in the toxic excrement of late liberal capitalism. For them, the end of the world has already happened – and it has happened multiple times: the catastrophe of colonialism and imperialism, neoliberalism and extractive capitalism, toxicity and disrepair. This talk asks what affective and collective practices look like if viewed from within worlds that have long existed after the end, using the Karrabing Film Collective as a special case. Elizabeth A. Povinelli is an anthropologist and filmmaker. She is Franz Boas Professor of Anthropology at Columbia University, New York, Corresponding Fellow of the Australian Academy of Humanities and a founding member of the Karrabing Film Collective. She is the author of five books, including the most recent, Geontologies: A Requiem to Late Liberalism (2016), winner of the Lionel Trilling Book Award. Karrabing films and installations have shown at the Tate Modern, Berlinale Forum Expanded, Melbourne International Film Festival, Contour Biennale, Sydney Biennale, Van Abbemuseum, Institute for Modern Art in Brisbane, Vargas Museum and other venues. Povinelli lives and works in New York City and Darwin, Australia. The visit of Elizabeth Povinelli was made possible by Het Nieuwe Instituut with support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
