Closing the Gap: Ethics and the Law in the Exhibition of Contemporary Native Art

Discusses how decreased funding for museums and art galleries has lead to an increased effort to secure Indigenous art in order to acquire grants. Uses Jimmie Durham as a case study and an examination of the Indian Arts and Crafts Act of 1990 to illustrate how the art community's haste to secure Indigenous art has allowed those with a fraudulent identity to benefit.
