"An Indigenous Present features more than 60 contemporary artists, musicians, writers and more, whose works are brought together in a visual collage that celebrates diverse approaches to Indigenous concepts, forms and mediums. This landmark volume is a gathering of Native North American contemporary artists, musicians, filmmakers, choreographers, architects, writers, photographers, designers, and more. Conceived by Jeffrey Gibson, a renowned artist of Mississippi Choctaw and Cherokee descent, and co-edited with independent curator Jenelle Porter, this book presents an increasingly visible and expanding field of Indigenous creative practice. It centers individual practices, while acknowledging shared histories, to create a visual experience that foregrounds diverse approaches to concept, form, and medium as well as connection, influence, conversation and collaboration. A visual collage, An Indigenous Present is an artist's book about artists that foregrounds transculturalism over affiliation and contemporaneity over outmoded categories. Edited with introduction by Jeffrey Gibson, the book also includes texts by Philip J. Deloria, Adam Khalil, Zack Khalil, Kite, Jarrett Martineau, Layli Long Soldier, a poem by Arielle Twist, and interviews with Candice Hopkins and Jaune Quick-to-See Smith"--
