Positioning Eastern Cherokee Basketry

04:00 pm to 05:00 pm
Mathers Museum of World Cultures
http://www.mathers.indiana.edu

Basketry made by Cherokee artists in North Carolina has changed significantly over the last two hundred years. With the shifting availability of important plants and a growing tourist market, this practice reflects the tribe’s changing social and ecological environment while providing a way for this community to adapt to new realities. Highlighting baskets on display in the Mathers Museum exhibit, Cherokee Craft, 1973, this talk by Emily Buhrow Rogers, a Ph.D. student in the departments of Anthropology and Folklore at IU, and co-curator of the exhibit, addresses these items’ diversity and explores how they mediated new meanings. The lecture, sponsored by Fall 2015 Themester @Work: The Nature of Labor on a Changing Planet, is free and open to the public.

Cost: Free
