Book Synopsis Fourteen Families in Pueblo Pottery by : Rick Dillingham
Download or read book Fourteen Families in Pueblo Pottery written by Rick Dillingham and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1974 Seven Families in Pueblo Pottery was published to accompany an exhibit at the Maxwell Museum of Anthropology: twenty years later there are some 80,000 copies in print. Like Seven Families, this updated and greatly enlarged version by Rick Dillingham, who curated the original exhibition, includes portraits of the potters, color photographs of their work, and a statement by each potter about the work of his or her family. In addition to the original seven--the Chino and Lewis families (Acoma Pueblo), the Nampeyos (Hopi), the Guteirrez and Tafoya families (Santa Clara), and the Gonzales and Martinez families (San Ildefonso)--the author had added the Chapellas and the Navasies (Hopi-Tewa), the Chavarrias (Santa Clara), the Herrera family (Choti), the Medina family (Zia), and the Tenorio-Pacheco and the Melchor families (Santo Domingo). Because the craft of pottery is handed down from generation to generation among the Pueblo Indians, this extended look at multiple generations provides a fascinating and personal glimpse into how the craft has developed. Also evident are the differences of opinion among the artists about the future of Pueblo pottery and the importance of following tradition. A new generation of potters has come of age since the publication of Seven Families. The addition of their talents, along with an ever-growing interest in Native American pottery, make this book a welcome addition to the literature on the Southwest.

Book Synopsis The Road I Call Home by : Randy Bacon
Download or read book The Road I Call Home written by Randy Bacon and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE ROAD I CALL HOME is a significant book spotlighting the breathtaking photographic portraits of the homeless and their stories. Through the lens of multi award winning, prominent photographer, filmmaker and humanitarian, Randy Bacon, THE ROAD I CALL HOME beautifully presents over 200 pages of portraits and narratives from the exhibition, which has traveled to numerous museums, galleries and venues nationwide. THE ROAD I CALL HOME features simple, direct, emotive, casual studio portraits that emphasize the beauty, dignity and integrity of the homeless and is accompanied by heartfelt narratives, personally told by each person. The unforgettable photography and stories are rooted in compassion and belief that, as a community, we can approach homelessness by choosing to see the beauty of each person in front of us - rather than the issues that overwhelm us. Homelessness is an issue that can easily overwhelm us. You don't have to go far in everyday life to literally come face-to-face with homelessness. We see the stark reality as we drive through our communities, as we walk down our streets and within the media. We see the heartbreaking struggle of too many people that don't have a house, which stirs emotion in each of us. Homelessness is an issue of humanity - over 600,000 people are homeless in the United States, a staggering 150 million humans living homeless worldwide and almost 2 billion living with inadequate housing. THE ROAD I CALL HOME looks to build new awareness about our relationship to homelessness and to each other - to give a voice to the voiceless and begin conversations that will be catalysts for people to get involved. THE ROAD I CALL HOME challenges viewers to look at homelessness with eyes of love and compassion, not negative judgment - to inspire people to simply acknowledge those in need, trusting that we are the same and just wanting to love and be loved. When we take time to listen to another person's journey, we begin the process of turning a stranger into a friend and opening our hearts to another human being.
