This review is from: Visions of the North: Native Arts of the Northwest Coast (Paperback)
When the front cover flap says "text offers a basic introduction to the Northweest Coast culture" put the emphasis on basic, very basic. The value of the book is in the photographs. This book includes not only old work and recent work but even work in progress. It includes petroglyphs, masks, dugouts, baskets, jewlery, totel poles, rattles, spoons i.e. a full introduction to the material culture. It also includes photographs of the region allowing one to envision the physical space in which the Native Americans lived.I find the book as a whole much more like a tour of a well-planned musuem display than like an art book. As such it is enjoyable. |
