Haida modern : the art & activism of Robert Davidson

Wilkinson, Charles, (film director.). Davidson, Robert, 1946- (on-screen participant.). Bullfrog Films, (publisher.). Robert Davidson. (Cast).

Haida artist Robert Davidson is one of the foremost cultural icons of the age. This documentary features candid and revealing conversations with the artist himself, along with commentary from art historians, politicians, musicians and family members detailing the importance and impact of Davidson's work. Highlighted in these conversations is the story of how Davidson carved the first totem pole raised on the island of Haida Gwaii in over 100 years, a spiritual and political act credited with sparking a reawakening of Indigenous culture in the Pacific Northwest. In this documentary, see how Indigenous and non-indigenous citizens alike, inspired by Davidson2s art, are coming together to forge political movements led by Indigenous activists and artists, fighting the critical environmental battles of our time. That is the great and enduring power of Robert Davidson's 14,000-year-old indigenous Haida culture: the power of an art so beautiful, it must be seen over and again.
