About this title

Synopsis

This handsome volume of a dozen essays was created to honor Brody, a scholar of Native American art who created the doctoral program in art history at the U. of New Mexico (where Szabo teaches art history). Topics include both historical and contemporary art, with individual papers on miniature tipis in the Reservation era, a portrait of a Northern Arapaho quillworker, Fort Marion drawings and the significance of books, social power and men's northern traditional powwow clothing, the prints and career of Juan Pino, the paintings and career of Bonita Wa Wa Calachaw Nunez, rock art and landscape, early floral design in the Columbia River plateau, and chief blankets on the middle Missouri.
