Aboriginal Femininity and Modern Identity: Gender and Race in the Late Colonial Visual Scene

该项目是1870-1967年澳大利亚土著妇女的第一部持续的文化史。它将借鉴现代视觉文化的各种形式：绘画、黑白白色绘画、大众商品奇观、电影和摄影，探讨土著女性能见度的六种生产模式：西方展览实践中的“原始”妇女，如殖民博物馆;“使命玛丽”出现现代的失败;土著女性气质与外来形式的关系;土著妇女的拜物教;家庭和旅游装饰品中的女孩piccaninny媚俗;以及公共土著妇女和名人进入现代化。

The project is the first sustained cultural history of Aboriginal femininity in Australian from 1870-1967. It will draw on diverse forms of modern visual culture: painting, black and white drawing, mass commodity spectacle, film and photography, to investigate six modes of production of Aboriginal feminine visibility: the 'primitive' woman in Western exhibiting practices such as colonial museums: the perceived failure of 'Mission Mary' to appear modern; the relation of Aboriginal femininity to imported forms of exoticism; the fetishism of Indigenous women; girl piccaninny kitsch in domestic and tourist ornaments; and the entrance of public Aboriginal women and celebrities into modernity.
