Philippe,
Don't know much more about theoretical works, but try:

_Partial recall_ edited by Lucy R. Lippard ; with essays on
              photographs of Native North Americans by Suzanne Benally ...
              [et al.] ; preface by Leslie Marmon Silko. 

and Silko's essay "The Indian with a Camera" in her book _Yellow woman and
a Beauty of the spirit_

and _A Circle of Nations:  Voices and Visions of American Indians [NA
Native writers & Photographers], ed. by John Gattuso

as well as the Theresa Hak Kyung Cha homepage (author of _Dictee_),which
includes places to find her articles and essays on post-colonial
cinematography/photographic framing:

Also, look closely at Minh's references; they've very helpful.
