Book Synopsis Native American Art by : Robin Langley Sommer
Download or read book Native American Art written by Robin Langley Sommer and published by Smithmark Publishers. This book was released on 1994 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The late twentieth century has seen a renewed interest in the art of the native peoples of North America. As modern culture becomes further removed from the natural world, as the world's natural resources are devastated under the pressures of civilization, so does a part of yearn for a time when human life seemed closer to that of the earth itself; when the spirit world and the physical world were inextricably intertwined, imbuing all things with a sense of magic that has largely been lost today. This reverence for nature in all of its manifestations, and the bond between people and the spirits, lives on today in Native American culture, reminding us, of the beauty in everyday life. This beauty is translated into Native American art, which in its simplest and most spectacular form transforms utilitarian items such as pottery jars and beaded clothing into objects of spiritual depth and meaning. Designs and techniques specific to a tribe are handed down through generations; certain designs are specific to certain individuals who encountered them in vision quests. Some motifs, such as spirals, bear paws, and cross shapes (signifying the four directions), have endured from prehistoric petroglyphs through the centuries up to the present day. When white settlers arrived bearing silver coins, glass beads, and dyes, Native Americans incorporated these and other materials into their traditional art. And today, while traditional techniques are passed along to the newest generation, some Native American artists incorporate traditional thought into modern media such as collage, sculpture, and painting in oils, acrylics, and watercolor. Adaptability has long been a part of Native American culture, helping it to surmount adverse conditions imposed by nature and by other cultures. The spectrum of Native American art includes weaving and basketry; pottery; jewelry, silverwork, and ornamentation; leatherwork, beadwork, and quillwork; regalia such as headdresses and war shirts and representational objects such as masks and kachina dolls; carving and sculpture in wood, stone, bone, horn and modern materials; and painting. Over 175 fine examples of work by tribes across North America, from Alaska to Nova Scotia and from Florida to Southern California, grace this breathtaking selection. Full color reproductions allow the viewer to see the incredible detail of workmanship in each unique, handcrafted piece. Text by art historian Robin Langley Sommer provides a fascinating overview which puts the pieces into both historical and spiritual context. A visual feast, Native American Art is an experience to savor."--Provided by publisher

Book excerpt: Echoing and expanding the aims of the first volume, Visualities: Perspectives on Contemporary American Indian Film and Art, this second volume contains illuminating global Indigenous visualities concerning First Nations, Aboriginal Australian, Maori, and Sami peoples. This insightful collection of essays explores how identity is created and communicated through Indigenous film-, video-, and art-making; what role these practices play in contemporary cultural revitalization; and how indigenous creators revisit media pasts and resignify dominant discourses through their work. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, Visualities Two draws on American Indian studies, film studies, art history, cultural studies, visual culture studies, women’s studies, and postcolonial studies. Among the artists and media makers examined are Tasha Hubbard, Rachel Perkins, and Ehren “Bear Witness” Thomas, as well as contemporary Inuit artists and Indigenous agents of cultural production working to reimagine digital and social platforms. Films analyzed include The Exiles, Winter in the Blood, The Spirit of Annie Mae, Radiance, One Night the Moon, Bran Nue Dae, Ngati, Shimásání, and Sami Blood.
Book Synopsis No Reservations by : Fergus M. Bordewich
Download or read book No Reservations written by Fergus M. Bordewich and published by Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art. This book was released on 2006 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of work by both Native and non-Native artists speaks of the complexity of Native American historical and cultural influences in contemporary culture. Rather than focusing on artists who attempt to maintain strict cultural practices, it brings together a group of artists who engage the larger contemporary art world and are not afraid to step beyond the bounds of tradition. Focusing on a group of 10 artists who came of age since the initial Native Rights movement of the 1960s and 70s, the book emphasizes art that does not so much "look Indian," but incorporates Native content in surprising and innovative ways that defy easy categorization. The Native artists featured here focus on the evolution of cultural traditions. The non-Native artists focus primarily on the history of European colonization in America. Artists include Matthew Buckingham, Lewis deSoto, Peter Edlund, Nicholas Galanin, Jeffrey Gibson, Rigo 23, Duane Slick, Marie Watt, Edie Winograde and Yoram Wolberger.
