Artistic perspectives on the connections between water and nation, sovereignty and ecology
Neither the metaphorical birth of a nation nor its actual violent formation is a one-time event. It is a process. A process of erasing, naming, and unnaming. Settling and unsettling. Extracting, dispossessing, and disappearing--a process of taking and placemaking. It is a tool of conquest, unthinkable without waterways, voyages, slave ships, and hemispheric maps of colonial and imperial demarcation. A companion to the exhibition A Nation Takes Place at the Minnesota Marine Art Museum, this catalog examines how artists bring critical attention to the "liquid fantasies" of the sea and navigate race and the violent silences, voids, ruptures, breaks, and counterworld formations unattended by the visuality of traditional maritime art, pushing the boundaries of what marine art is and can become.Situating archival images, artworks, and texts within the visual convention of maritime art, this collection interrogates ways that the imaginaries of seafaring are tethered to the lethal technologies of enslavement, colonialism, genocide, dispossession, and extraction. A Nation Takes Place: Navigating Race and Water in Contemporary Art pairs contemporary artworks with their historical antecedents, representing how the maritime world remains with us as a romantic notion, a space of haunting, a capitalist playground, a violent terrain, a site of resistance, and a place to rethink the ecological imaginary.
