Experiments in Indigenous-Led and Government-Supported Protections and Protocols
Indigenous communities, governments, and industry are increasingly recognizing the importance of appropriate protocols in the protection, preservation, and promotion of Indigenous art in all of its forms. Protocols can articulate how communities and Indigenous People deal with issues. They can also result in fair market practices that protect the interests of both Indigenous Peoples and their communities as well as the consumer.
The essays by Tony Belcourt, Blandina Makkik, Patricia Adjej, and co-authors Jane Anderson, James Francis and Māui Hudson provide examples of how these protocols and protections are now manifested through Indigenous and government action. The essay Traditional Knowledge and Biocultural Labels as well as the Igloo Tag Trademark illustrate how Indigenous Peoples and their communities can implement processes and laws that acknowledge the provenance of Indigenous culture, traditions, and art forms.Ensuring respect for the authenticity of Indigenous art as well as ensuring that artists are fairly compensated for their work are priorities for Indigenous Peoples. The essays Development and Implementation of Resale Rights for Australian Indigenous Visual Artists and Indigenous Art Registry provide examples of how these objectives are currently being met, as in the case of Australia’s resale royalty, and how they could be met, as in the case of the proposal for an Indigenous art registry. The recent report on the statutory review of the Copyright Act by The Standing Committee on Industry, Science and Technology included, among other things, recommendations for the government to consult on the participation of Indigenous groups on national and international law and policy, creating an Indigenous art registry, establishing an organization to advocate for the interests of Indigenous creators, and consultation to explore the implementation of an artist’s resale right in Canada.
