Dear Art Gallery of Ontario Board of Trustees,
We are writing today to express our grave concern regarding the dismissal of Wanda Nanibush from her position of Curator of Indigenous and Canadian Art at the Art Gallery of Ontario, and regarding the ways in which her departure has been sorely mishandled. The repercussions of your action are being felt throughout this country by Indigenous organizations; by Indigenous people connected to arts and cultural communities; and by other institutions invested in allyship and decolonization. Your decisions caused a seismic rupture within the fragile fabric of reconciliation. The lack of transparency surrounding these actions is incredibly destabilizing for all of us left in the dark, wondering what and who will be the next to fall? The institutional autocracy that you have enacted to silence and erase the presence of Ms. Nanibush - and accomplishments she made together with you, the AGO, within your walls - is chilling.
The act of including didactics in Anishinaabemowin throughout your galleries was simple, yet revolutionary. You were one of the first. To see those words, that language, made present, instilled such pride and power in us, that we would carry with us, out into the world, giving us strength long after our visits were over. The agency afforded to Ms. Nanibush in order to enact her ideas in such a space was extraordinary. It was the result of a relationship of trust.
This presented the possibility of change not only within the walls of the AGO, but beyond, national in scope. The ripple effect was felt throughout these territories, laying the ground for what we call, “decolonization”. Our stories and voices, our ways of thinking and doing, were acknowledged and honoured at home on our land, and further - they were brought to the international stage. These were done in ways that we understood: through relationship, discourse and communication. As much as Wanda Nanibush’s position was emblematic of the potential for change and good will of the institution and those who worked there, the way in which her departure has transpired from your institution, is fraught. We now see that this relationship existed in an unbalanced power structure. Relationship building that had been done for years has been severely damaged because of your actions.
One of the basic tenets of a territorial acknowledgement is to name the people of the land. To not name them is to render them invisible. This is quite literally what you have now done to Ms Nanibush. The silencing of her person, the erasure of her presence within your institution, has broken any illusion of relationship upon which allyship with Indigenous communities must be built. This is an incredible step backwards that is so damaging, not only to the Indigenous arts community, but other racialized arts communities as well. These communities include individuals, organizations and networks who have all been affected by these events. Like a rhizomatic system, we are embedded throughout these territories. As something happens to one, it happens to all. Our trust has been broken.
In his open letter dated November 30, 2023, AGO Director, Stephen Jost, apparently assumed the Indigenous arts community will be willing to work with the AGO in the future - that the harms caused are focused on Ms. Nanibush alone and that her dismissal does not greatly affect us all. However this assumption is wrong. The AGO is a public institution. We are a part of it, as Wanda brought us in. While Mr. Jost mentions a continuing commitment to Indigenous artists, storytellers and thinkers, there is no plan on how this will be enacted. We require transparency and inclusion, trust and respect, if we are to continue on this journey together. For us, the first, necessary and most obvious step is to understand what happened and why.
We request that the AGO release Ms. Nanibush from any legal obligations preventing her from speaking publicly about her tenure and dismissal, about how she sees what happened and why. It is essential that we hear her words on this matter, to prepare the ground for any relations to begin to grow again.
Let Wanda Speak.
We hope you recognize the importance of the AGO's relationship with the Indigenous arts community and urgently take this first step in repairing the trust that has been so badly damaged by Wanda Nanibush’s dismissal. Do you not think that we are on a journey together? We share these lands. We have shared these lands. We must work together. We are in relationship.
We respectfully ask for a response to our request by Wednesday January 31, 2024.
If we do not hear from you by this date, we will consider other options that are arising from ongoing conversations within Indigenous arts communities.

Cher conseil d’administration du Musée des beaux-arts de l’Ontario,
Nous vous écrivons aujourd’hui pour exprimer notre vive préoccupation quant au congédiement de Wanda Nanibush à titre de commissaire d’art autochtone et canadien au Musée des beaux-arts de l’Ontario, et quant à la manière lamentable dont son départ a été traité. Partout au pays, les répercussions de ce geste sont ressenties par les organisations autochtones, les personnes autochtones impliquées dans les communautés artistiques et culturelles, ainsi que les autres institutions investies dans leur rôle d’alliées et dans la décolonisation. Vos décisions ont entraîné une déchirure profonde du fragile tissu de la réconciliation. Le manque de transparence entourant ces actions est extrêmement déstabilisant : nous restons dans le noir, forcé·e·s de nous demander sur quoi et sur qui s’abattra le prochain couperet. L’autocratie institutionnelle que vous invoquez pour faire taire madame Nanibush et pour effacer sa présence (sans parler de tout ce qu’elle a accompli avec le Musée des beaux-arts de l’Ontario) nous glace le sang.
L’inclusion de matériel didactique en anishinaabemowin dans vos galeries était un geste simple, mais révolutionnaire – un geste que vous étiez parmi les premières institutions à poser. Ces mots et cette langue nous remplissaient de force et de fierté. Ils restaient en nous longtemps après chaque visite. La marge de manœuvre accordée à madame Nanibush pour donner vie à ses idées dans un tel espace était extraordinaire. Elle découlait d’une relation de confiance.
Dans ce contexte, le changement devenait possible non seulement au Musée des beaux-arts de l’Ontario, mais à l’échelle nationale. Une vague de changement se faisait sentir sur tous nos territoires, ouvrant la voie vers ce que nous appelons la décolonisation. Nos récits et nos voix, nos façons de dire et de faire étaient reconnus et honorés chez nous, sur nos terres, mais aussi à l’international. Ce processus passait par des moyens qui nous étaient familiers : relations, discours, communication. Si le poste occupé par Wanda Nanibush symbolisait un potentiel de changement et de bonne volonté de la part de l’institution et des gens qui y travaillaient, son congédiement est pour le moins troublant. Nous savons maintenant que cette relation était tributaire d’un déséquilibre des pouvoirs. Les liens tissés au fil des ans sont aujourd’hui en piteux état, et ce, en raison de vos actions.
L’un des principes fondateurs de la reconnaissance territoriale consiste à nommer les peuples de chaque territoire. Taire leurs noms reviendrait à les invisibiliser. Or, c’est exactement ce que vous avez fait à madame Nanibush. En la réduisant au silence, en effaçant sa présence au sein de votre institution, vous avez détruit toute illusion de la relation sur laquelle doit se fonder une alliance avec les communautés autochtones. Ce déplorable retour en arrière est extrêmement nocif non seulement pour la communauté artistique autochtone, mais pour les autres communautés artistiques racisées, y compris toutes les personnes, toutes les organisations et tous les réseaux touchés par ces événements. Nous sommes comme un système de rhizomes : enraciné·e·s dans nos territoires. Le tort causé à l’un·e d’entre nous nous affecte toustes. Vous avez trahi notre confiance.
Dans sa lettre ouverte du 30 novembre 2023, Stephen Jost, directeur du Musée des beaux-arts de l’Ontario, présume que la communauté artistique autochtone restera disposée à collaborer avec le Musée. Comme si les torts causés ne touchaient que madame Nanibush; comme si son congédiement ne nous bouleversait pas toustes. Monsieur Jost se trompe. Le Musée des beaux-arts de l’Ontario est une institution publique dont, grâce à Wanda, nous faisons partie. Le directeur parle d’un engagement continu envers les artistes, les conteurs, les conteuses, les penseurs et les penseuses autochtones. Pourtant, aucun plan n’a été mis en place pour honorer cet engagement. Pour continuer d’avancer ensemble sur cette voie, nous exigeons d’abord transparence et inclusion, confiance et respect.
En ce qui nous concerne, la première étape – évidente et primordiale – est de comprendre ce qui s’est produit et pourquoi.
Nous demandons au Musée des beaux-arts de l’Ontario de libérer madame Nanibush de toute obligation légale qui l’empêcherait de parler publiquement de son expérience au Musée et de son congédiement ou de donner sa version des faits. Pour éventuellement renouer nos liens, nous devons d’abord, et c’est essentiel, entendre ce que Wanda a à dire.
Laissez Wanda s’exprimer.
Nous espérons que vous reconnaîtrez l’importance de la relation qu’entretient le Musée des beaux-arts de l’Ontario avec la communauté artistique autochtone, et que vous prendrez immédiatement cette première mesure pour regagner la confiance que vous avez trahie en congédiant Wanda Nanibush.
Ne sommes-nous pas engagé·e·s sur une même voie? Nous avons partagé ces terres. Nous continuons de les partager. Nous devons absolument travailler ensemble. Nous sommes en relation les un·e·s avec les autres.
Nous vous demandons de répondre à notre demande d’ici le mercredi 31 janvier 2024.
