Nota(s) sobre el alcance
- April 6 - September 26, 1993
- By selecting examples from MOA’s collection of over 300 Nuu-chah-nulth baskets and illustrating how they were made, moved into private collections, and acquired by museums, the process by which objects are reinterpreted by both collectors and museum professionals is made visible. In this exhibit, curator Charlene Garvey critically examines changes in meaning that can occur over the life of a basket, and how these interpretations change over time to reflect beliefs about Native basketry, women’s arts and museological practices.
