Clarification

This lively introductory survey of indigenous North American arts from ancient times to the present explores both the shared themes and imagery found across the continent and the distinctive traditions of each region. Focusing on the richness of artwork created in the US and Canada, Native North American Art, 2nd Edition, discusses 3,000 years of architecture, wood and rock carvings, basketry, dance masks, wear and more. The expanded text discusses twentieth- and twenty-first-century arts in all media including works by James Luna, Kent Monkman, Nadia Myre, Jaune Quick-to-Meet Smith, Will Wilson, and many more than. Authors Berlo and Phillips contain new research and scholarship, examining such issues as art and ideals, gender, representation, and the colonial encounter. By bringing into one conversation the seemingly divide realms of the sacred and the secular, the political and the domestic, and the formalism and the commercial, Native N American Art shows how visual arts not only maintain the integrity of spiritual and social systems within Native Northward American societies, but accept long been function of a cantankerous-cultural experience as well.
