Art Defines the Culture,
By gobirds2 (New England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Historic Pottery of the Pueblo Indians, 1600-1880 (Hardcover)
Art, or pottery in this case, defines the culture. Historic Pottery of the Pueblo Indians (of Southwestern United States) is an impressive collection of photographic works and analysis that exemplifies the highest artistic achievement of these Native Americans. The Pueblo Indians have kept their culture basically intact for over a thousand years. Their works of pottery are an essential and practical form of artistic expression. The basic ingredient for making pottery is clay dug up from deposits in the earth. These deposits of clay were pulverized and cleaned of impurities and used in the process of making pottery. This book examines this process and details the different types of Pueblo pottery both of practical use and those exemplifying the highly decorative samples of artistic expression. This pottery truly defines the culture of these people.
