Exhibition catalogue for the inaugural showcase at the National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, D.C. celebrates the distinguished careers of two extraordinary Native artists. George Morrison (Grand Portage Band of Ojibway, 1919-2000) and Allan Houser (Warm Springs Chiricahua Apache, 1914-1994) are deserving of this magnificent catalogue. Their paintings, drawings, and sculptures are explored in essays that place their works in the context of contemporary art, Native American art history, and cultural identity. Chronological biographies, exhibition list, and essays are included with over 70 colour plates of their works of art. Essays by Gerald Vizenor, N. Scott Momaday, and Gail Tremblay provide details about the artists' lives and their exceptional art. |
