Native American Art in the Twentieth Century: Makers, Meanings, Histories

Description: Contemporary Native American and First Nation art has won increasing international recognition in recent years as galleries and museums have begun to make room for Native artists. Provocative and illuminating, "Native American Art in the Twentieth Century" features the writings of practicing artists, critics, curators and scholars that engage a wide range of critical issues in Native art from the 1890s to the present. Demonstrating its vitality and diversity, the contributors examine pottery, painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography and performance art by some of the most celebrated Native American and Canadian artists of our time. From the Pueblo pottery revival to the invention and marketing of modern Inuit art, contributors offer new interpretive strategies based on Native culture and knowledge, stressing the significance of tradition, mythology and ceremony in the production of Native art. Tracing the continued resistance of Native artists to dominant orthodoxies of the art market and arthistory, "Native American Art in the Twentieth Century" is a testament to Native art's place in modern art history.
