Section Title:
Native American Art
Section Info:
Native American Art: Ancestral to Early Modern. In this course, we will study the Indigenous arts of North America both regionally and chronologically. Beginning with a consideration of the rich, dynamic variety of art forms produced across a wide array of ancestral Indigenous communities, we will extend our focus into the early decades of the twentieth century, a period during which Native American art objects and imagery extended an unusually powerful (albeit complex and often contradictory) influence upon the development of modern art, popular culture, and museum collections. Underscoring modes of both continuity and change, we will consider a diverse range of media, including architecture, basketry, ceramics, textiles, jewelry, painting, sculpture, and performance.
