{"product_id":"kent-monkman","title":"Kent Monkman","description":"Kent Monkman is frequently inspired by museum collections, re-envisioning iconic works through a contemporary Indigenous lens. He explores themes of colonization, sexuality, loss and resilience-the complexities of historic and contemporary Indigenous experiences-across painting, film\/video, performance and installation. His gender-fluid alter ego, Miss Chief Eagle Testickle, often appears in his work as a time-traveling, shapeshifting, supernatural being who reverses the colonial gaze to challenge received notions of history and Indigenous peoples.In this English \/ Canadian French volume, Monkman, as Miss Chief, is seated in his paintings across from a male figure in a room similar to the one in Vermeer's iconic Officer and Laughing Girl. The five paintings depict Miss Chief joined variously by a 17th-century Dutch officer, an 18th-century French explorer, a 19th-century American soldier, a 20th-century Catholic priest and a 21st-century tech executive.","brand":"D Giles Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58468000956751,"sku":"9781913875787","price":42.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0061\/0372\/8217\/files\/9781913875787_1-kent-monkman.jpg?v=1786663230","url":"https:\/\/www.suomalainen.com\/products\/kent-monkman","provider":"Suomalainen.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
