نبذة مختصرة : Although indigenous arts have always been present, with great diversity and sophistication, among peoples all over the world, they only began to be included in art history and exhibited in the Western art system from the second half of the 20th century onwards. In Brazil, the process was even later, with a particular effervescence in the last ten years, with great indigenous protagonism.

After all, the projects have multiplied, but the memories about them often end up being restricted to the people directly involved. We were also interested in stimulating reflections that moved between the history of art, anthropology, museology and other neighbouring disciplines, and that put side by side indigenous and non-indigenous thought. In other words, we sought to build a panoramic, interdisciplinary and, whenever possible, inter-epistemic dossier. ; Aunque las artes indígenas siempre han estado presentes, con gran diversidad y sofisticación, entre los pueblos de todo el mundo, sólo empezaron a incluirse en la historia del arte y a exhibirse en el sistema artístico occidental a partir de la segunda mitad del siglo XX.
