Book Dolls of the Tusayan Indians  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Dolls of the Tusayan Indians Classic Reprint written by Jesse Walter Fewkes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-20 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dolls of the Tusayan Indians I have already elsewhere (the American Anthropologist, Jan. 1892) considered the simplest means used by these people in the expression of symbolism, that of their pioto graphs or rock etchings. In a natural sequence of subjects it might have been better to have followed this with an account of the symbolism expressed by them in the decoration of tiles, pottery, basket-ware and other productions, but at present this is not possible. In the glyptic art the tusayan-indians have a much more complicated means of expression and as a consequence their work of this kind is more elaborate and artistic. A oommen surate description of their wood carving would be so large that I can not hope to give more than the barest outline of my subject, so that the present article 1) must be regarded as more after the nature of a preliminary account. The specimens of wood carvmg to which especial attention will be given are dolls, ti-hus an'd fetishes, the latter introduced in secret performances. If we rely upon the testimony of the priests we may conclude that the art of wood carving among the Ho-pi (mo-ki) is very ancient, and many of the objects placed on the altars in the subterranean chambers (rib - vac), where secret rites are performed, are said to have been brought up from the underworld when the ancients emerged from the si-pc'r-pu. 2) The majority of the specimens of wood carving which are here described are very modern. The objects treated in this article are called ti-hus, and are used by children as dolls. These carved wooden images are made in great numbers by the Tusayan Indians and present most instructive objects for the study of symbolic decoration. They are interesting as affording valuable information in regard to the Ho-pi conception of their mythological personages. These images are commonly mentioned by American visitors to the Tusayan pueblos as idols, but there is abundant evidence to show that they are at present used simply as children's playthings which are made for that purpose and given to the girls with that thought in mind. 3) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Decorative Art of the Southwestern Indians

Download or read book Decorative Art of the Southwestern Indians written by Dorothy S. Sides and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The decorative art of the Indians of the American Southwest has long been recognized as one of the most beautiful art traditions in the primitive world. It demonstrates a technical skill with simple materials, a symbolic richness, and a faculty for creating rich effects by the imaginative use of ornament that are all almost unique. Museums use Pueblo ceramics for display pieces, and modern artists and crafters have turned eagerly to the handwork of prehistoric Indian women for inspiration and working ideas. Mrs. Dorothy Sides, a noted artist and collector, has gathered together and redrawn in black and white nearly 300 examples of the finest authentic Southwestern Indian decoration that she has seen in a lifetime of study. She has not limited her selection to one period or style, however; to make her book as useful as possible, she has selected material ranging from the thirteenth century great geometric art of the Pueblos to the handcrafts carried on by the nomadic and Pueblo peoples of the present. The main emphasis of this volume is on ceramic decoration, and Mrs. Sides includes pieces from the rich archeological sites of Pecos, Sikyatki, the Mimbres, and modern Pueblo pottery from Acoma, Zuni, Cochiti, and the Hopi. She also includes designs and motifs from the basketry of the Apache, Pima, and Papago; beadwork from the Mohave; authentic Zuni masks; Hopi kachina dolls; and sand paintings and blanket designs from the Navajo. This broad coverage of beautiful ornament illustrates many different art styles to fit every situation: geometric designs based upon balanced mirror fields of design, symbolic figures of the thunderbird, and modern stylizations. All is beautiful and imaginative. Any crafter working with ceramics will find this book indispensable as a source of rich, easily used, powerful design; workers in wood, weavers, metal workers, and leather workers will find that it will enlarge their decorative resources considerably. It also offers unusual and eye-catching designs for commercial artists who wish to do work suggesting travel, handcrafts, the Southwest, or the social sciences. Individual drawings are royalty-free and may be reproduced without fee or permission. "Worthy of an honored place in the library of aboriginal American art." — F. H. Hodge, Director, Southwestern Museum.
