Abstract (English)

Durham's playful "guided tour" of Poitras' installation reveals references to history, art history and colonialism. He considers how the work's materiality relates to First Nations culture, and shows how the work is political without being didactic. Includes list of works. Biographical notes on artist. 36 bibl. ref.
