This lushly illustrated book examines the cross-cultural influences and unique artistic dialogue between Hispano and Native American arts in the Southwest over the past 400 years since Spanish colonisation. Insightful essays by historians, artists, and scholars including Estevan Rael-Galvez, Lane Coulter, Enrique R Lamadrid, Marc Simmons, and others, explore the impact of cultural interaction on various art forms including painting, sculpture, metalwork, textiles, architecture, furniture and performance and ceremonial arts. Over 150 art works and photographs gathered from museums across the country are testimony to the unique South-western aesthetic that developed from this dynamic cultural exchange.
"This Final Report provides an in-depth analysis and recommendations based on the Commission's findings following outreach to communities throughout the United States."--Exec. summary.
Examines the intersection of Native-American and African-American history, discussing how the two groups have influenced one another, what conflicts they have faced, and how they came together despite slavery, dispossession, racism, and other obstacles.
Indigenous communities throughout the world are under pressure from mainstream societies and the western world to assimilate and to abandon their Indigenous Culture. Colonialism has disrupted Indigenous ways of living for over five centuries now. Much of the Indigenous culture still lives, resonates, and continues to be resilient in many places globally. However, Indigenous culture is still susceptible to being displaced into present day modern mainstream culture. Latino people in the United States are also faced with pressure from mainstream society to be more American. This community workshop is an attempt to have an open dialogue with participants about the Indigenous Roots-Indigenismo, founded in the Latino Culture. This project is focused in a small pocket community in Humboldt County California, named Loleta. Most of the participants are from Mexico, or their parents are from Mexico. Furthermore I will examine barriers of how Latino’s have been Colonized, and the barriers to embracing our cultural identities. Essentially this community project is aimed at examining ways on how to preserve the Latino culture alive for future generations of Latinos in America. This project advocates the importance of promoting and preserving cultural identity in order to ensure diversity and inclusion in our communities.
