Northwest Co a St Arts C Apital Plan NORTHWEST COAST ART evolved over several thousand years in the rich and complex indigenous societies of the Pacific Northwest of North America. Art adorned everything from monumental structures and ceremonial regalia to basic utilitarian objects. The simplicity of the design components—elements of a system known as formline—belie the complexity and sophistication that was achieved in this two-dimensional NWC art tradition. From the earliest contact with Westerners, wood carvings, weavings, and other cultural pieces depicting NWC art were aggressively collected by museums and visitors and acclaimed as one of the most distinctive and unique art traditions in the world. Today, this ancient tradition continues to evolve through the work of contemporary NWC artists. NATIONAL TREASURE NWC art occupies an important position in America’s artistic traditions and cultural history. Most importantly, it plays a significant role in maintaining the cultural diversity of the nation and the cultural survival of the region’s indigenous populations. Like jazz music, which was designated a national treasure by Congress in 1987, NWC art should be designated a national treasure of the United States. A VISION FOR THE FUTURE SHI’s quest to establish the Northwest Coast Arts Capital began with the construction of the Walter Soboleff Building that is in itself a work of art, and is adorned with monumental art pieces by three master indigenous artists of international acclaim. The creation of the NWC Arts Capital ensures the SEALASKA HERITAGE INSTITUTE, a Native nonprofit, has achieved survival of NWC arts, providing untold sustainable a record of excellence and is positioned to create the Northwest social and economic benefits to the region and state.

    FILMING A MAKAH VILLAGE FOR JIM JARMUSCH' S DEAD MAN by TODD J. TUBUTIS BA. (honours), Beloit College, 1992 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES Department of Anthropology & Sociology We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard: V THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA July 1998 ©Todd J. Tubutis, 1998 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department of Anthropology & Sociology The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date 6 August 1998 DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT This thesis looks at ethnographic film using Jim Jarmusch's 1996 Dead Man as a "site." Dead Man's penultimate scene portrays a Northwest Coast village using Makah actors and Makah- made set pieces. The production of this scene provides a setting where mainstream American culture, represented by a Hollywood film crew, comes into contact with Makah culture in a collaborative filmmaking effort, making Dead Man a site of cultural negotiation and mediation. By contextualizing Dead Man with earlier films from the Northwest Coast by Edward S. Curtis and Franz Boas, by examining the film's production through the words of the participants, and by incorporating theoretical notions of contact zones, authenticity, and experience, the author gleans an understanding of the contemporary Makah experience of Dead Man.

This survey was sent to 55 districts and was returned by 54. A similar survey, "Native Arts Educational Programming" was returned by 14 Native/Arts organizations. The findings indicated: (1)11 districts have a formal arts curriculum, with formal defined as a complete packaged guide. 30 districts have an informal curriculum that integrates Native Arts into other areas such as social studies or literary arts. 13 districts had no Native Arts curriculum.(2)
