I am in the process of opening my private library in Liguria Italy in a medieval apartment & there's just so much Native American history + I make sure Raven & Thunderbird artworks spread in the Great Spirit. Keep it coming, guys, it's all wonderful: garments, poles, painting, history. THANKS!
THANKS, guys: garments, poles, painting, history. My medieval apartment in Italy is a private library, which contains many books on Native peoples + I frequently include Raven & Thunderbird motifs in my artworks.
There is a beautiful publication on a little-explored subject on native American glassmakers. The title of the publication is "Fusing Traditions: Transformations in Glass by Native Americans." Wonderful photographs and bios by these talented artists. Book is available at: www.fineartspress.com
I keep telling people this but a lot of them don't understand..seen some people claiming to be Native and none of them live like this or have culture..
***** it is about culture without culture you have nothing or nothing....our ancestors fought and died for our culture..best way to honour our ancestors is to hang on to our culture..you thinking "living like gypsies"..you don't get it by saying that..
I'm Swedish Italian but if I'm to choose a culture as you seem to desire, I choose Canadian. My ancestors left Europe to escape war and poverty. Now, Europe is a foreign land of foreign languages. I don't know the experiences of indigenous peoples, especially that of Native Americans, but to me, Canada owes its indigenous peoples respect, quality of life, and representation. The States on the other hand have long espoused the melting pot (rather than multiculturalism) and is defined by British colonization at their roots; perhaps this frames the discussion differently.
There is a beautiful and informative book on native American glass artists titled "Fusing Traditions - Transformations in Glass by Native American Artists." In recent years, a group of talented native American artists have selected glass as a medium for their creative expression. This handsome publication is Illustrated with beautiful, full page color plates and informative essays. Native American artists have turned inward, using the studio art methods initially implemented by the American Studio Glass Movement to create works of art inspired by objects of use and ritual to Native Americans. The book is available at: www.fineartspress.com
