En luktende diskurs. Jessie Kleemann og grønlandsk kunsthistorie mellom spekk og terpentin

Abstract

In this article, I identify the implicit dependency structure that links the ethnic and aesthe-tic art histories – a tension that unfolds live in Kleemann’s approach to blubber and paint in the performance Orsoq III: Subarctic Sushi. I focus on examining how Kleemann’s work introduces an embodied manner of relating to knowledge and history by collapsing hie-rarchies and demonstrating the unstable and unfinished development of these histories in and around Greenland.
