| Summary |
"The book examines how The University of North Dakota's collection of Native North American Art is understood and appreciated within its campus setting. As art collections are best understood within the context of historical trends of collecting, the book's authors consider significant changes that have affected the philosophy behind how and why collections of Native American art should be cared for, researched, and displayed. Objects made by Native North Americans, which are re-contextualized within an academic environment, are examined in ways that allow concepts embodied within them to reinforce a sense of greater cultural understanding." "Lavishly illustrated with historical as well as contemporary Native artwork, the publication's design and layout are culturally driven using a numerical scheme based on sacred geometry that has special significance within many Native cultures. An ordered grid is used to construct the visual form and to interject a sense of harmony and balance. Special efforts were taken to respectfully document sacred ceremonial objects in an attempt to be responsive to their content, form, and function."--BOOK JACKET. |
