Native Sculpture Today
|
|
 Some of the earliest Native expressions of prayer, self-identity, adornment and beauty were created in three-dimensional form from materials freely provided by the earth. Walrus ivory figures carried by hunters in the Arctic north, amulets carved in bone or wood or shaped from clay, totems reaching skyward-over the centuries, experienced hands have passed on their understanding and tools to younger hands.

 ON THE COVER
The
face of 21st century Native America is both old and new-a testament to
the tenacity and vibrant creativity of those who originally inhabited
the Western Hemisphere. In so many ways, Randy'L He-dow Teton
(Shoshone-Bannock/Cree) represents the convergence of past, present and
future. Her likeness appears on the new $1 U.S. coin released last
month bearing the depiction of 19th century Lemhi Shoshone heroine
Sacagawea, who led explorers Lewis & Clark into the West.Click on "Full Story" to view the complete Table of Contents. |
