    ANCESTRAL MODERN: AUSTRALIAN ABORIGINAL ART FROM THE KAPLAN & LEVI COLLECTION EDUCATOR RESOURCE GUIDE HOW TO USE THIS GUIDE This guide is designed as a resource for educators visiting the exhibition Ancestral Modern: Australian Aboriginal Art from the Kaplan & Levi Collection or the Australian and Oceanic Art Permanent Collection Galleries on a guided or self-guided visit. Educators are encouraged to develop open-ended discussions that ask for a wide range of opinions and expressions from students. The projects in this guide connect to core curriculum subject areas and can be adapted for a variety of grade levels to meet Washington State Standards of Learning. Related images for each project are included at the end of this guide. If you would like additional assistance modifying these projects to fit your classroom, please email SAM’s Wyckoff Teacher Resource Center (TRC) at [email protected]. Additional exhibition information can be found at seattleartmuseum.org/ancestralmodern. For more information about bringing a group to SAM please visit seattleartmuseum.org/educators or email [email protected]. INTRODUCTION TO THE EXHIBITION An enduring visual language that speaks to the culture, ceremony and history of the Australian Aboriginal is communicated in this exhibition. This language is comprised of a complex set of lines and dots that represent elements such as the intricate root system of a yam which is made up of sinuous interconnected lines. These visual elements are also used to represent the flora, fauna, landscape, sea and sky. Featuring over 100 artworks created within the last 40 years, using a variety of media; canvas, natural pigments on bark, carved wood sculptures, intricate woven fiber works along with detailed bronze castings, Ancestral Modern expresses an innate art making activity that conveys stories of food, laws, life and people.

This sedge has numerous small seeds that were ground into an edible paste. Whilst Martu did not consume sedge and grass seeds in contemporary times, their use was demonstrated to younger people and visitors. ii DEDICATION This dissertation is dedicated to my parents, Dianne and John Walsh. My mother cultivated my joy in plants and wildlife. She introduced me to my first bush foods (including kurarra, kogla, ‘honeysuckle’, bardi grubs) on Murchison lands inhabited by Yamatji people then my European pastoralist forbearers.1 My father shares bush skills, a love of learning and long stories. He provided his Toyota vehicle and field support to me on Martu country in 1988. The dedication is also to Martu yakurti (mothers) and mama (fathers) who returned to custodial lands to make safe homes for children and their grandparents and to hold their country for those past and future generations.

AIATSIS would recommend the focus of this senate inquiry includes: consultation with traditional owner groups; native title corporations administering native title settlements and agreements bodies; Native Title Representative Bodies (NTRBs); Native Title Service Providers (NTSPs) and Aboriginal Land Councils: all of whom exercise responsibility for the management of the Indigenous Estate and large tracts of the National Reserve System. This critical consultation and engagement is to ensure that traditional knowledge and management is acknowledged as being an essential element in threatened species recovery, management and conservation. AIATSIS submits that acknowledging the totality of the Indigenous Estate and its interconnection with the National Reserve System is essential in terms of addressing the faunal extinction crisis across the content. Caring for Country programs, Indigenous Land and Sea Management Programs (ILSMPs) and Indigenous Protected Areas (IPAs) are achieving great success in terms of threatened species recovery and the eradication of feral pests and species. Please find attached the AIATSIS submission which is based upon 26 years of research and practice by AIATSIS in Indigenous cultural heritage and native title law.

  • Ngapartji Ngapartji Ninti and Koorliny Karnya
    Ngapartji ngapartji ninti and koorliny karnya quoppa katitjin (Respectful and ethical research in central Australia and the south west) Jennie Buchanan, Len Collard and Dave Palmer 32 Ngapartji ngapartji ninti and koorliny karnya quoppa katitjin (Respectful and ethical research in central Australia and the south west) Jennie Buchanan Len Collard Murdoch University University of Western Australia [email protected] [email protected] Dave Palmer Murdoch University [email protected] Keywords: marlpara (friend/colleague), ngapartji ngapartji (reciprocity), birniny (digging and inquiring), kulini (listening), dabakarn dabakarn (going slowly) Abstract This paper is set out as a conversation between three people, an Indigenous person and two non-Indigenous people, who have known and worked with each other for over 30 years. This work has involved them researching with communities in central Australia and the south west of Western Australia. The discussion concerns itself with ideas and practices that come from three conceptual traditions; English, Noongar and Pitjantjatjara to talk about how to build ngapartji ngapartji (“you give and I give in return”, in Pitjantjatjara), karnya birit gnarl (respectful and kind ways of sweating/working with people, in Noongar), between marlpara (“colleagues”, in Pitjantjatjara) and involving warlbirniny quop weirn (singing out to the old people, in Noongar). Kura katitj (Introduction and background) The history of outsiders carrying out research with Indigenous Australians is long and often vexed. To say that Indigenous communities do not often benefit from the work of researchers is perhaps an understatement. Although approved by the ethical protocols of universities, much research that is undertaken “on” Indigenous people, Indigenous lands and Indigenous knowledge maintains the longstanding model of “excavating” information, artifacts and insights.

    Collecting seeds and capturing culture For 600 generations, the Spinifex people have maintained and fostered their spiritual and cultural connection to their traditional lands in the heart of the Great Victoria Desert.

    Book Reviews Which Justice and Which Politics? Rethinking Social Justice: From ‘Peoples’ to ‘Populations’ by Tim Rowse, xx + 249 pp, Aboriginal Studies Press, Canberra, 2012, ISBN 9781922059161 (pbk), $ 39.95. Rethinking Social Justice is a significant book not because its arguments always convince but because it can promote constructive debate. Three proposals are central to the work. The first one is that, since the 1950s, the Australian discourse regarding Indigenous issues has been structured by two ideas of social justice embodied in the notion of ‘a people’ and ‘a population’. The latter term refers to an aggregate of individuals; the former to a nation or ethnic group though Rowse proposes to understand ‘a people’ not so much in cultural terms but more in terms of a political and institutional project. At first glance the book may appear to be a play on two aspects of justice pertaining on the one hand to self- determination and, on the other, to a range of capabilities that people require to be self-determining in the modern state. Yet this would be a mistake. The first hint comes in the book’s subtitle, From ‘Peoples’ to ‘Populations’. Rowse sees the former mode of social justice under attack and by the book’s end it is hard to see the latter mode, addressed to various disadvantages, as a part of justice at all. A communal, political course is privileged over capabilities and also over other dimensions of sociality that bear on both gendered and generational relations. Such a position may not be what Rowse intended but part of this review will address this bent in his argument.
