Indian Painters of the Southwest

The book profiles ten outstanding painters representing seven different Pueblo Indian groups and the Navajo Nation who participated in a convocation at the Indian Arts Research Center at the SAR. While some artists have chosen to depict traditional scenes and symbols and others have chosen to create modern works influenced by Euro-American painting, all draw on the deep remembering of tribal heritage and personal experience and a heightened awareness of the artist s role in more than one modern world."
