Resisting the Colonial Imagination: The Role of Exhibition Design in the Decolonial Project
Abstract
The staff of First Americans Museum are among many museum professionals seeking to disrupt the methods of presentation still endemic among collections of Indigenous cultural materials. These models may feel nostalgic or elevated to some, but can make an thoughtful and compelling exhibition feel hostile for the descendants of people brutalized by European and American empires.
