FEATURES
Sacred Ground: Landscapes as Living Spirit
American Indians consider the land a living entity and believe certain places have powerful spiritual forces associated with them. Many sacred places are threatened by inappropriate development today, while some have been permanently protected. Read about the significance of holy places such as the San Francisco Peaks in northern Arizona, Devil’s Tower in northeastern Wyoming, Bear Butte in South Dakota and the Zuni Salt Lake in western New Mexico—and the battles to save them from housing tracts, strip mining, chemical plants and other assaults. By Jake Page.
Pointing Toward Perfection
Many of the finest Native artists in America will gather again for the 2007 Eiteljorg Museum Indian Market in Indianapolis on June 23, including some of last year’s prize winners: potters Judy Tafoya (Santa Clara Pueblo) and Lincoln Tafoya (Comanche/Santa Clara Pueblo), sculptor Adrian Wall (Jemez Pueblo/Chippewa) and jeweler Allison Lee (Diné). Plus details on the 2007 event. By RoseMary Diaz (Santa Clara Pueblo).
Full Steam Ahead at the Eiteljorg Museum
The Eiteljorg Museum in Indianapolis forges on with an ambitious schedule for 2007, including Totems to Turquoise: Native North American Jewelry Arts of the Northwest and Southwest, the Quest for the West Show and Sale, and the interactive exhibit Stagecoach, plus the fifth round of its acclaimed fellowship program and many exciting special events. By Jennifer Complo McNutt.
