These are just a few of the colonial cities that have pieces of Nimrud.<br>As of 2015, only two Museums in Iraq have pieces from Nimrud.<sup>1<\/sup> These museums include (from top left): The British Museum, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Bowdoin College Art Museum, the Met, Museu Calouste Gulbenkian, the State Hermitage, the Louvre, the Walters Museum, and The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.<br><br>&nbsp;<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Growing up in a Washington, D.C. daycare, I spent many days wandering through the Smithsonian admiring the breathtaking exhibits, but I took for granted how those museums acquired their art and never wondered how it got where it was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Michael Rakowitz\u2019s current exhibit, Nimrud, at the Wellin Museum at Hamilton College raises provocative questions about the ethics of colonial art collections in western countries.&nbsp; Can the presence of colonial art in western countries ever be justified? How can colonial powers rectify past wrongs and continue to honor the art of former colonies if they repatriate the art?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"260\" height=\"195\" src=\"https:\/\/soc.hamiltonlits.org\/sharingsociology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-6.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1984\" srcset=\"https:\/\/soc.hamiltonlits.org\/sharingsociology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-6.png 260w, https:\/\/soc.hamiltonlits.org\/sharingsociology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-6-230x173.png 230w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 260px) 100vw, 260px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rakowitz\u2019s artwork emulates statues from the Ancient Assyrian city of Nimrud\u2019s Northwest Palace. The original sculptures reside all over the world, but only a few pieces are left in Iraq. Surely the right place for ancient and valuable works of art is their home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"144\" height=\"194\" src=\"https:\/\/soc.hamiltonlits.org\/sharingsociology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-8.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1986\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But in a devastating twist of fate, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) destroyed the original sculptures from the Palace when the caliphate captured Mosul in 2015. The quotes below from the exhibit demonstrate the anguish that destruction caused residents of the city<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>I ALMOST SPENT MY WHOLE LIFE IN THE ANCIENT SITES OF MOSUL. THESE GANGS DIDN\u2019T ONLY DESTROY MY CITY, THEY HAVE DESTROYED THE DEAREST THINGS TO MY HEART.\u201d &#8212; AMER AL-JUMAILY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-cyan-bluish-gray-background-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u201cONE HUNDRED PERCENT DESTROYED. LOSING NIMRUD IS MORE PAINFUL TO ME THAN EVEN LOSING MY OWN HOUSE\u201d &#8212; ALI AL BAYANI<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Individuals like Al-Jumaily and Al Bayani both value the heritage the sculptures at Nimrud represented. In an ideal world, those artifacts would be where they belong, in their home countries. In the case of the art from Nimrud, however, colonial art transfers, unexpectedly, are the only reason art from ancient Assyria survives today. That is not to excuse colonial transfers, but to emphasize that the relations to stolen art can be myriad and complex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a broader sense, \u201cpolitical sovereignty and visual sovereignty are inextricably tied\u201d as Kathleen Ash-Milby and Ruth B. Phillips in the <em>Art Journal<\/em>. The ability for post-colonial nations to exercise power and agency over their former art is a significant demonstration of independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So what can be done? Both Ash-Milby, Philips, and other scholars of colonialism and art, emphasize the importance of dialogue. These problems will not be solved overnight, and there is not a one-size-fits all solution. As Ash-Milby and Philips write, \u201csovereignty should be understood as both processual and relational.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[4]<\/sup><\/a> Dr. Tolia-Kelley of the University of Sussex agrees: \u201cthere is room for dialogue that is empowering, re-enlivening, and can potentially lead to a re-framing of a postcolonial, post-racial sensibility of curatorship.\u201d<a href=\"#_ftn2\"><sup>[5]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is where the Rakowitz exhibit shines. The Rakowitz exhibit creates and inspires that necessary dialogue. It starts the process of discussing sovereignty. The exhibit shows that each story has more than two sides. It evokes emotion, enough to demand a response, a solution, a remedy to the obvious injustice dealt to the Iraqi people. Colonial powers holding stolen art must engage Iraqi people, as well as post-colonial nations across the globe, in a dialogue and extend to them that vital visual sovereignty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;Rakowitz also shows that colonial powers can honor the artwork of colonized peoples by emulating their creations. Imitation is, after all, the highest form of flattery. Rakowitz, who has Jewish Iraqi ancestry, is at the center of these issues of colonialism and art. He can make legitimate claims to the original artwork from Nimrud, while also claiming fidelity to the United States, a colonial power. <a>His exhibit is perhaps the best outcome. If art can be returned by colonial powers to where it came from, emulation in Rakowitz\u2019s style is the most respectful and meaningful replacement to continue to honor and appreciate the artwork.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"#_ftnref1\"><sup>1<\/sup><\/a> Ruth Horry, \u201cMuseums Worldwide Holding Material from Nimrud,\u201d Nimrud: Materialities of Assyrian Knowledge Production (Nimrud Project, Department of History and Philosophy of Science, University of Cambridge, Free School Lane, Cambridge CB2 3RH, UK, 2015), http:\/\/oracc.museum.upenn.edu\/nimrud\/catalogues\/museumsworldwide\/index.html.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. \u201cMichael Rakowitz: Nimrud October 19, 2020 &#8211; June 18, 2021 &#8211; Wellin Museum,\u201d Wellin Museum of Art, accessed May 2, 2021, https:\/\/www.hamilton.edu\/wellin\/exhibitions\/detail\/michael-rakowitz-nimrud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3.
