Obituary: Roger Boulay (1943—2024)
Roger Boulay (1943–2024) devoted the majority of his professional life to building an inventory of Kanak material culture from New Caledonia. In 1979, Jean-Marie Tjibaou had passed the idea for this project on to Boulay, who immediately set to work in New Caledonia and in European museums. In 1982, he became a part-time curator at the National Museum of the Arts of Africa and Oceania in Paris, and began reorganizing that museum collection and its…
Impaired Antisaccades in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Evidence From Meta-Analysis and a Large Empirical Study
Increasing evidence indicates that patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) exhibit alterations in fronto-striatal circuitry. Performance deficits in the antisaccade task would support this model, but results from previous small-scale studies have been inconclusive as either increased error rates, prolonged antisaccade latencies, both or neither have been reported in OCD patients. In order to address this issue, we investigated antisacca…
The materiality of Sepik societies: Introduction
From the time of its discovery at the end of the 19th century, the northern Sepik Valley was recognized as one of those places with a seemingly inexhaustible capacity for artistic creation. The cultures found along the river and its tributaries produced objects and architectures that astonished by the impressive diversity of their forms. This creativity has motivated numerous studies with no end in sight so rich is the material, as attested by th…
Conclusion
Au terme de notre mission exploratoire, portons un regard rétrospectif et demandons-nous comment les thèmes des trois symposiums qui eurent pour objet les recherches anthropologiques dans le Sepik ont évolué. Comment la question de la matérialité des œuvres d’art et celle de la créativité des artistes – les sujets mêmes de l’art – sont-elles intrinsèquement liées à une approche comparative générale prenant en compte les entités culturelles et les…
Conclusion
At the end of our exploratory mission, let us take a moment to look back and ask ourselves a few questions: How did the themes of the three symposiums dealing with anthropological research in the Sepik area evolve? And how did the materiality of artworks as well as the creativity of artists, in short, the subject of art, become intrinsically linked with the more general approach comparing cultural entities or phenomena across the region? And last…
Does the materiality of museum collections matter in Digital Humanities
After more than one hundred years of increasingly self-reflective collecting, museums and archives around the globe hold an immense corpus of physical objects and relevant archival material from the Sepik area of Papua New Guinea. While culturally coded knowledge is embodied in these materials, the use of additional outside observations may help to describe some of these areas of knowledge. To keep traditional knowledge alive, methodologies beyon…
Le Sepik: Société et production matérielle
Dès sa découverte, à la fin du xixe siècle, le nord de la vallée du Sepik fut reconnu comme un des lieux où la création artistique semblait inépuisable. Les cultures installées sur les berges du fleuve et ses affluents produisaient des objets et des architectures qui provoquaient l’étonnement par leur impressionnante diversité formelle. Cette créativité a donné naissance à de nombreuses études. Des études qui ne seront jamais closes, tant la mati…
Das Land Entlang des Sepik. Vergangenheitsdarstellung und Migrationsgeschichte im Gebiet des mittleren Sepik, Papua New Guinea – By Ulrike Claas
The mother and her ancestral face. A commentary on Iatmul iconography
Visually effective symbolization in Iatmul society is reviewed, starting from observations by Bernard Juillerat on the role of the mother in real as well as in symbolic relationships. Ceremonial acts of women and men in the context of naven rituals, and iconological representation anchored in initiatory knowledge are shown to be linked. Performing renders knowledge, services, material objects such as valuables or masks, i.e. cultural entities wit…

Sepik Heritage: Tradition and Change in Papua New Guinea
Reflections on art, crafts, and ethnographic documentation in a Papua New Guinea society
A number of difficulties need to be overcome when attempting to film in societies where simple craftsmanship, modes of expression, artistic and religious ideas, as well as traditions, blend together in an indivisible whole. The author explains his effort to satisfy the theme of the film both visually and analytically. He goes on to give an account of how problems were confronted step‐by‐step, keeping in view past field experience and the complex …
