Indigenous Sovereignty and Settler Amnesia: Robert Houle’s Premises for Self Rule
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Le modernisme en art est souvent considéré comme un développement spécifiquement occidental. Robert Houle, l’artiste, écrivain et commissaire d’exposition d’origine Saulteaux, a cependant toujours soutenu que sa propre pratique est moderniste et qu’elle suit une filiation esthétique autochtone. Cet article s’intéresse particulièrement à une oeuvre produite par Houle en 1994, Premises for Self Rule , dans laquelle l’artiste a juxtaposé des textes de législation coloniale à des panneaux peints en monochrome et des cartes postales trouvées en archives. Il propose qu’à travers cette stratégie de rapprochement, l’artiste fusionne la tradition de la peinture de parflèche à l’esthétique moderniste, remettant ainsi en lumière la négociation interculturelle, l’amnésie coloniale, ainsi que les écarts qui séparent les épistémologies et traditions artistiques des peuples autochtones et allochtones.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
