Description
by Jennifer Heath (Author)
Catalogue and artbook for the touring exhibition, The Map is Not the Territory, which looks at relationships and commonalities in Palestinian, Native American and Irish experiences of invasion, occupation and colonization. Although many peoples worldwide have suffered long and brual invasions, Palestinians, Native Americans and the Irish have intersected for centuries in specificand often unusual ways. What are some of these intersections and how do contemporary artists examine and process them through their own lives and visions? Thirty-nine artists and nine writers -- most of them Palestinian, Native American and Irish -- explore the many profound connections between these three groups across centuries of conflict and resistance.
