Download or read book Indian made written by Erika Marie Bsumek and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In works of silver and wool, the Navajos have established a unique brand of American craft. And when their artisans were integrated into the American economy during the late nineteenth century, they became part of a complex cultural and economic framework in which their handmade crafts conveyed meanings beyond simple adornment." "Bsumek unravels the layers of meaning that surround the branding of "Indian-made." When Navajo artisans produced their goods, collaborating traders, tourist industry personnel, and even ethnologists created a vision of Navajo culture that had little to do with Navajos themselves. And as Anglos consumed Navajo crafts, they also consumed the romantic notion of Navajos as "primitives" perpetuated by the marketplace. These processes of production and consumption reinforced each other, creating a symbiotic relationship and influencing both mutual Anglo-Navajo perceptions and the ways in which Navajos participated in the modern marketplace." "Ultimately, Bsumek shows that the sale of Indian-made goods cannot be explained solely through supply and demand. It must also reckon with the multiple images and narratives that grew up around the goods themselves, integrating consumer culture, tourism, and history to open new perspectives on our understanding of American Indian material culture."--BOOK JACKET.

Book The Navajo and His Blanket  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Navajo and His Blanket Classic Reprint written by Uriah S. Hollister and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-17 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Navajo and His Blanket In decorating our homes with fine examples of our Indians' barbaric work which we willingly purchase at almost any price, we gratify our love for curious things and yield to our fancy for unusual embellishments; but in doing so we may also be building better than we know. Collections of the implements Of domestic use, and of warfare, and of the clothing and ornaments, made by the Indians of our eastern coast in the time when our Pilgrim Fathers landed, would be of great value now; and collections as sembled by us of similar articles made by the Indians of the present day will be hereafter of great ethnological and historic value. As Indian wars have gone out of fashion, present-time products of Indian handiwork, among which general attention is divided, are basketry, beadwork, buckskin garments, necklaces, pottery, and the Navajo blanket. The more conspicuous of these. And toward which the greatest interest is directed, are the basket and the blanket. Basket-making covers a wide range of territory, the art being prac ticed by many tribes, who produce an almost endless variety of forms and patterns. From Alaska southward along our western coast and in the Rocky Mountain region, wherever there is an Indian tribe or clan, we may find the native made basket in some form either for utilitarian, ceremonial, or ornamental purposes.

Book IMAGINING INDIANS SW

Download or read book IMAGINING INDIANS SW written by DILWORTH L and published by Smithsonian. This book was released on 1996-10-17 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Imagining Indians in the Southwest, Leah Dilworth examines the creation and enduring potency of the early twentieth-century myth of the primitive Indian. She shows how visions of Indians - created not only by tourism but also by anthropologists, collectors of Indian crafts, and modernist writers - have reflected white anxieties about such issues as the value of labor in an industrialized society, racial assimilation, and the perceived loss of cultural authenticity. Dilworth explores diverse expressions of mainstream society's primitivist impulse - from the Fred Harvey Company's guided tours of Indian pueblos supposedly untouched by modern life to enthnographic descriptions of the Hopi Snake dance as alien and exotic. She shows how magazines touted the preindustrial simplicity of Indian artisanal occupations and how Mary Austin's 1923 book, The American Rhythm, urged poets to emulate the cadences of Native American song and dance. Contending that Native Americans of the Southwest still are seen primarily as living relics, Dilworth describes the ways in which they have resisted cultural colonialism. She concludes with a consideration of two contemporary artists who, by infusing their works with history and complexity, are recasting the practices and politics of primitivism.
