Book excerpt: The Hopi Indians have had Kachinas in their religion for over one thousand years. Over the years many works have been published about the Kachinas. Most of these have discussed them from the white man's interpretation of what the Hopi have told him. This book gives readers the perspective of the Hopis. The seventy-nine Kachinas depicted in this book were painted by Neil David, Sr., a Hopi-Tewa from First Mesa, in the village of Hano, Arizona. The paintings show both the front and back of each Kachina; that is the entire costume of the Kachina. The descriptions of the Kachinas have come from the mouths of various Hopi. They discuss differences in the Kachinas as they appear on each of the three Southwest mesas where the Hopi make their home. The Kachinas which appear in this book are, in general, rare and unusual Kachinas and will enlighten those who wish to learn about and appreciate theKachinas, Spirit Beings of the Hopi.

Book Synopsis The Great Tradition of Hopi Katsina Carvers by : Barry Walsh

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Hopi Katsina carvings have long fascinated diverse audiences due to their spiritual meaning, their colorful artistry, and their connection to Hopi Indian culture. This book reviews the evolution of katsinam from 1880 to the present. The emphasis is on the life stories of the carvers in relation to their katsina art. The book begins with work from the 1880s, which is anonymous. By the 1920s and 30s, certain artists, such as Wilson Tawaquaptewa and Otto Pentewa, developed such distinctive styles that their work became easily identifiable. Their fascinating life stories are told with details provided by surviving relatives. In the 1940s, Jimmie Kewanwytewa began signing his work, which set a precedent most others have since followed. His biography, and those of his contemporaries, are reviewed with examples of their seminal work provided. The katsina carving tradition is very much alive today. This book features many of the finest living carvers. Some work in a very time-honored traditional style; others are innovators, moving in strikingly new directions. All of these katsina artists shared their autobiographies with Barry Walsh; they had full control over what was published. Dr. Walsh's daughter, Anna, a professional photographer and videographer, took the majority of the more than 150 photographs in the book"--
