520 "The craftsmanship of native North American peoples is now
regarded as art of a high order, yet not until the early
twentieth century did it become the subject of aesthetic
discussion. The varied and vital forms of Indian artifacts
--from the totem poles of the Northwest Coast to the rock
engravings of the Anasazi--create an extraordinary record
of native traditions and their subtle interactions with
European influence. Classifying surviving works by
material and technique, the author covers a huge field--a
thousand tribes and about 200 languages. The works
described and illustrated range from an Arapaho Ghost
Dance dress to Buffalo Meat's self-portrait, from Seminole
applique work of the 1890s to a Tlingit spoon carved from
mountain goat horn; all of them works of art that testify
to a vast field of human achievement."--Publisher's
description.
