iakwé:iahre [we remember]
October 16- 18 2014
Montréal, QC
The iakwé:iahre Colloquium is presented by the Aboriginal Curatorial Collective / Collectif des Conservateurs autochtones on the traditional territory of the Kanien’ke:haka. It focuses on an active and collaborative act of remembering as applied to the contemporary idea of an archive from an Indigenous perspective.
“We remember” in culturally specific ways of knowing based in orality and continuum of time. “We remember” this process as a living and dynamic form of communication. The iakwé:iahre Colloquium brings together curators and artists to listen, share and discuss the creation of an Aboriginal Art Living Archive, so that we all may remember. Simultaneous interpretation will be available in French and English.
