This volume brings together contemporary works by 27 major Iroquois artists from the U.S. and Canada whose thriving and varied tradition of creative expression is less well known than that of the Northwest Coast or the Southwest. Contemporary Iroquois artists express themselves in a great variety of media and styles, while emphasizing their Native identity in relation to Western society.The artists' own comments on their work are supplemented by interpretive essays based on extensive interviews with the artists. Other essays by Iroquois and European authors reflect on aspects of Iroquois art, its historical development, and its cultural background.Kasprycki, Sylvia S. is the author of 'Iroquoisart: Visual Expressions of Contemporary Native American Artists' with ISBN 9783000024498 and ISBN 3000024492.
