The Indigenous Curatorial Collective / Collectif des commissaires autochtones (IC/CA) (formerly The Aboriginal Curatorial Collective / Collectif des commissaires autochtones (ACC-CCA)) is a Canadian-based fine arts organization that provides professional development opportunities to the Indigenous peoples in Canada which include the First Nations, Inuit, and Métis artists and curators.
Established by Cathy Mattes, Barry Ace, Ryan Rice, Ron Noganosh and Âhasiw Maskêgon-Iskwêw as a not-for-profit organization in 2006, the Collective's mandate is dedicated to increasing the public profile of Indigenous art curators and their role in protecting, fostering and extending Indigenous arts and culture throughout North America.
[1][2] The Indigenous Curatorial Collective supports its mandate through sponsorship of an annual conference and other professional networking opportunities, including lectures and exhibitions.
Many of the central activities of the (IC/CA) will be determined by the priorities, participation and energy of caucuses.
There are also other Indigenous curatorial community issues that caucuses will address and that the (IC/CA) will put resources behind.
