  • ICTM Study Group on Musics of Oceania Circular No. 16 New
    ICTM Study Group on Musics of Oceania 17 April 1989 Circular No. 16 New Member We welcome Dr. Cynthia B. Sajnovsky to our Study Group. Please note her address on page 3 of this Circular and add it to the list of members distributed with Circular No. 15. ICTM Meeting in Schladming, Austria, 23-20 July 1989 So far, only Rossen has expressed the hope that members of our Study Group can get together during this World Conference. Of course, Christensen will attend in his capacity of Secretary General and Trimillos plans to attend in his capacity as member of the Executive Board. If other members do plan to participate/attend and would like to meet informally, I suggest you contact one of these three (I do not plan to attend). Other Forthcoming Events of Potential Interest to Members The 4th International Symposium of the Pacific Arts Association is to be held in Honolulu, 6-12 August 1989. (The sponsors are the Honolulu Academy of Arts, Bishop Museum, Office of Hawaiian Affairs, East-West Center, Hawaii Museums Association, Native Hawaiian Culture and Arts Program, Center for Pacific Islands Studies of the University of Hawaii, and Hawaii Loa College.) Reeves (now Helen Reeves Lawrence--congratulations, Helen!) and two other ICTM-SGMO members have expressed interest in an informal gathering with other members of our Study Group who may attend. The conference, titled "Artistic Heritage in a Changing Pacific," is clearly within our sphere of interests--especially the section on "Performing Arts." The other sections are "Role of the Museum in a Changing Pacific" (chaired by Kaeppler), "Visual Arts," and "The Future of Pacific Arts." The section on the performing arts is co-chaired by Moulin and Faustina Rehurer (Director of the Belau Museum).

Such customs were analyzed in both their past and present contexts, and are documented to provide possible insights into more effective systems of acquiring and maintain- ing a sufficient supply of freshwater on Guam.

    Photograph by Carim Yanoria Nåna by Kisha Borja-Quichocho Like the tåsa and haligi of the ancient Chamoru latte stone so, too, does your body maintain the shape of the healthy Chamoru woman. With those full-figured hips features delivered through natural birth for generations and with those powerful arms reaching for the past calling on our mañaina you have remained strong throughout the years continuously inspire me to live my culture allow me to grow into a young Chamoru woman myself. Through you I have witnessed the persistence and endurance of my ancestors who never failed in constructing a latte. I gima` taotao mo`na the house of the ancient people. Hågu i acho` latte-ku. You are my latte stone. The latte stone (acho` latte) was once the foundation of Chamoru homes in the Mariana Islands. It was carved out of limestone or basalt and varied in size, measuring between three and sixteen feet in height. It contained two parts, the tasa (a cup-like shape, the top portion of the latte) and the haligi (the bottom pillar) and were organized into two rows, with three to seven latte stones per row. Today, several latte stones still stand, and there are also many remnants of them throughout the Marianas. Though Chamorus no longer use latte stones as the foundations of their homes, the latte symbolize the strength of the Chamorus and their culture as well as their resiliency in times of change.

Kolesnik and Alexandra A. Sitnikova* Siberian Federal University 79 Svobodny, Krasnoyarsk, 660041, Russia Received 01.06.2017, received in revised form 02.10.2017, accepted 09.10.2017 The article presents a scientific model of the traditional functioning of the decorative and applied arts of the indigenous peoples of the Krasnoyarsk Territory (Krai). This is an “ecological model”, since it implies careful and economical use of all natural resources being extracted. The current state of the decorative and applied arts of the indigenous small-numbered peoples of the Krasnoyarsk Territory North is described by a scientific model, which is perceived as a “model of symbolic consumption”. The authors analyzed main types of souvenirs produced by the indigenous minorities of the North of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, namely beadwork, bone carving works, festival clothes, taxidermy items, shaman attributes, doll amulets, etc. The researchers offered a scientific model of ways to develop the decorative and applied arts of the indigenous small-numbered peoples the Krasnoyarsk Territory North. These include the improvement of the “symbolic consumption” system first at the level of souvenir production, then at the level of creating ethnocultural villages and ethnic parks, and, finally, at the level of creating contemporary art works to be understandable and interesting internationally. Keywords: decorative and applied arts, the indigenous small-numbered peoples, souvenirs of the indigenous peoples of the North, ethnic park, development models for the decorative and applied arts of the indigenous peoples of the North.
