Description

The international exhibition presented over 20 Sámi artists, focusing on high quality and challenging works of contemporary art. Artists discussed specific values and practices from inside Sámi culture and contemporary global art. The Sami are the northernmost indigenous people of Europe, who have their own culture and own languages. Today?s Sámi artists work explicitly, and often on a deeply personal level, with suppressed histories and unuttered issues in the context of the present and its globalized framework. Also among Sámi artists, backgrounds and experience are diverse, many having grown up outside of the Sápmi region, thus bringing multi-vocal or even contradictory heritages to their artistic practice.00Exhibition: Rovaniemi Art Museum, Korundi, Finland (7.3.-25.5.2014) / Norrbottens Museum, Luleå, Sweden (18.06.-24.08.2014) / Sami Center for Contemporary Art, Karasjok, Norway (14.11.2014?4.1.2015).
