Description

Explore the complex history of how Native American identity was transformed into a global commodity. In Indians on Display, Norman Denzin examines the era when American Indian cultures were turned into forms of entertainment for worldwide audiences. As colonial expansion impacted indigenous nations, entrepreneurs created a fictionalized version of the Wild West that was exported across the globe. This work analyzes how exhibitions by George Catlin, the paintings of Charles King, and the famous Wild West shows of Buffalo Bill Cody shaped public perception. Through a series of performance pieces involving historical, contemporary, and fictitious characters, the text provides a deep cultural critique of how these representations were constructed. It offers a necessary look at the intersection of art, museums, and performance in the shaping of Native American imagery.
