Carlotta - the museum database

Nordamerika (2008) :: 2008-10-24

Object description

Nordvästkusten smygöppnades hösten 2007 och öppnades officiellt tillsammans med Nordamerikas indianer i oktober 2008. Bilden av den nordamerikanske indianen har påverkat synen på "oss själva" och "den andre" ända sedan 1600-talet. Med utgångspunkt i Etnografiska msueets spektakulära samlingar gör utställnignen nedslag i de Nordamerikanska indianernas historia och visar hur "indianen" länge varit del av den svenska kulturhistorien. Utställningen tar upp aktuella frågor om identitet, etnicitet och integration genom historiska utsnitt och inblickar i dagens situation. Traditionella föreställningar ställs mot nya perspektiv samtidigt som de etablerade stereotyperna uppmärksammas.

Här finns också texten till Daisyguider både i Nordvästkusten och Nordamerika delarna.

Important to know about the information in the online collection database

Users of the database are warned that some records may include language or terminology dating from the 19th and 20th centuries which depicted people in ways that are obsolete and/or offensive. We are conscious that the inclusion of such terminology is problematic. As an institution, we have chosen to include this historic information in our database because it is part of the documentation for the object, photograph, or archival item. Where known, objects associated with, or photographs depicting, ritual or ceremonial activity have been hidden in the publicly accessible database as there may be restrictions relating to the age, gender, initiation and ceremonial status or clan of the person who may see them. The database may also include the names of deceased persons, which could cause sadness or distress, particularly to relatives of these people.
