“…Also the 'awakening' of the Namarali, the giant Wandjina figure at the Sydney Olympics opening ceremony in 2000 was a clear expression of respect to the Indigenous Australians and stressed their significance as the original inhabitants of this country (O'Connor et al, 2008). Similar undertones could be found in the use of petroglyph motifs by the national team of Kazakhstan during the Winter Olympics in Sochi in 2014, although this case reflects more the appropriation of the archaeology of the region than a revival of original Kazakh tradition (Rozwadowski, 2014).…”

This brief article is an introduction to a research project that examines the contemporary re- ception and re-interpretation/re-vitalization of prehistoric rock art and, more specifically, the re/ use of rock art motifs by present-day artists in Siberia and Canada. During the second half of the 20 th century, new artistic trends emerged in both regions, wherein artists significantly drew upon the heritage of indigenous peoples. In Canada, this phenomenon is mainly connected to works created by First Nations artists, while in Siberia it concerns a broader spectrum of image makers from indigenous and non-indigenous backgrounds. As a result, how the past is drawn upon in these two geographical regions involves differing perspectives, though some common trends can be observed. How do the artists link the past with the present through rock art, and to what extent do the images provide them with a source of identity? These are the questions examined by the project.
