Abstract

Abstract:Cochiti artist Virgil Ortiz's Revolt 1680/2180, is an epic futuristic narrative about the 1680 Pueblo Revolt (Revolt), an uprising planned by the Pueblos after they were subjected to approximately 80 years of colonization and genocide. Ortiz reimagines this battle in Revolt 1680/2180, by resituating the storyline in the future, 500 years after the initial uprising. Ortiz's sci-fi rendering of the Revolt reclaims Pueblo history and roots his story in tradition; yet he imagines new symbolic meaning of the uprising for a future that focuses on justice, contestation of oppression, and restoration. Guided by Pueblo scholars' conceptualizations of restoration and critical Indigenous and Chicana feminist approaches to decolonization, we demonstrate how Ortiz's screenplay and other artwork reclaims Pueblo knowledge, traditions, and methods through Native science. We also identify how Ortiz subverts heteropatriarchal conceptions of gender identity and representation that rupture settler colonial understandings of the Revolt and Pueblo culture through Indigenous futurism. We follow Eve Tuck's (Unangax̂) and K. Wayne Yang's definition of decolonization, as "an elsewhere," that "specifically requires the repatriation of Indigenous land and life," to demonstrate how Ortiz's work situates "Native futures, the lives to be lived once the settler nation is gone."

修复与革命:通过艺术去殖民化
摘要:科奇蒂艺术家维吉尔·奥尔蒂斯的《1680/2180年的起义》是一部史诗般的未来主义叙事作品,讲述了1680年普韦布洛人起义的故事,这是普韦布洛人在遭受了大约80年的殖民和种族灭绝后策划的一场起义。奥尔蒂斯在1680/2180年的起义中重新想象了这场战斗,通过还原未来的故事情节,在最初的起义500年后。奥尔蒂斯对起义的科幻渲染再现了普韦布洛的历史,并将他的故事植根于传统;然而,他想象了起义的新的象征意义,未来的重点是正义,反对压迫和恢复。在普韦布洛学者对恢复的概念化和批判性的土著和墨西哥女性主义方法的指导下,我们展示了奥尔蒂斯的剧本和其他艺术作品如何通过土著科学重新获得普韦布洛的知识、传统和方法。我们还发现Ortiz是如何通过土著未来主义颠覆异性父权制的性别认同和表征观念的,这些观念打破了定居者对起义和普韦布洛文化的殖民理解。我们遵循伊芙·塔克(Eve Tuck)和k·韦恩·杨(K. Wayne Yang)对非殖民化的定义,将其定义为“另一个地方”,即“明确要求土著土地和生命的归还”,以展示奥尔蒂斯的作品如何定位“土著的未来,即移民国家消失后的生活”。
