The book discusses the representation of Amazonian indigenous cultures in art and anthropological exhibitions through the analysis of a series of case studies of temporary exhibitions taking place in museums and biennials in Brazil, Europe and the United States spanning a period of 25 years from the mid-1980s. The book puts forward the concept of ' minor curating' as a strategy to amplify access to collections of historical relevance for indigenous peoples and to enable them to develop projects that are politically, historically and culturally meaningful for their own societies through curatorial authorship.
Cinthya is a researcher at the University of Gothenburg developing a project of digital repatriation of Brazilian collections from the Swedish Museum of World Cultures (Varldskulturmuseet), as well as opening the collections for long-term research to indigenous students from the Amazonian region, including the Waiwai, Palikur, Munduruku and Tikuna.
