Download or read book Hopi Kachinas written by Ron Pecina and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hopi Indian's rich culture and exciting religious ceremonies continue to thrive. However, outsiders have limited opportunity to witness the exciting Katsina dances and ceremonies of the Hopi, save through the well-known and much prized kachina dolls the Katsina spiritually inform. Presenting work from a select set of recognizable Hopi artists, this book relates the detailed history and culture of the Hopis in tandem with their creative efforts to showcase that framework: from remarkable paintings to the kachina sculptures and dolls that manifest as physical representations of the Katsinam, the Hopis' spiritual beings. These pieces complement the Pecina's studious and informative narrative of chronological vignettes and text based on a careful selection of events in Hopi history, oral teachings of great cultural significance, and legends of the Katsinam. Hopi Kachinas presents a clear and meticulous portrait of the Hopis beliefs, history, legends, their Katsina celebrations, and the personas of the Katsinam. This book illuminates the stage of study for scholars, and is vital for students of the Hopi culture.

Book Synopsis The Great Tradition of Hopi Katsina Carvers by : Barry Walsh
Download or read book The Great Tradition of Hopi Katsina Carvers written by Barry Walsh and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 256 pages. 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"--
