Modern by Tradition: American Indian Painting in the Studio Style presents the form, style, and pictorial intention behind the finest artists to emerge from the Studio, the renowned art program developed at the Santa Fe Indian School in the 1930s by Dorothy Dunn. Featuring provocative essays by noted art historian W. Jackson Rushing and anthropologist Bruce Bernstein and 120 beautifully reproduced works by artists such as Joe Herrera, Pablita Velarde, Oscar Howe, and Gerald Nailor, Modern by Tradition takes the first exclusive look at the Studio Style of modern Indian Painting since Dunn's landmark American Indian Painting (1968).

A splendidly illustrated introduction to the rich history of Native American art, distinguished by its broad coverage and nuanced discussion. This timely new book surveys the artistic traditions of indigenous North America, from those of ancient cultures such as Adena, Hopewell, Mississippian, and Anasazi to the work of modern artists like Earnest Spybuck, Fred Kabotie, Dick West, T. C. Cannon, and Gerald McMaster. The text is organized geographically and draws upon the testimonies of oral tradition, Native American history, and the latest research in North American archaeology. Recent art historical scholarship has helped restore, to a large degree, some understanding of the identities and cultural roles of Native American artists and the social contexts of the objects they created. Native American art is often discussed simply as a cultural production rather than the work of individual artists who made objects to fufill social and cultural purposes; this book focuses as much as possible on the artists themselves, their cultural identities, and the objects they made even when the names of the individual artists remain unrecoverable. But this is not a book of artists' biographies. It seeks to inform a general readership about the history of Native American art with a lively narrative full of historical incident and illustrated with provocative and superlative works of art. It explores the tension between artistic continuities spanning thousands of years and the startlingly fresh innovations that resulted from specific historical circumstances. The narrative weaves together so-called "traditional" arts, "tourist" arts, and Native American art of today by taking the point of view of their particular and local histories—the artists, their communities, and audiences. Among the many cultures included are: Arapaho, Athapascan, Cherokee, Cheyenne, Chumash, Hopi, Hupa/Karok, Inuit, Iroquois, Kwakiutl, Lakota, Miwok, Navajo, Ojibwa, Pomo, Tlingit, Tsimshian, Uypik, and Zuni.

Color and b & w illustrations accompany descriptions of the work of Native American painters working in contemporary and traditional styles, including major painters recognized as prominent in the mainstream of American art as well as artists who prefer to remain within tribal boundaries. The paintings prove that heritage is an important part of the painters' artistry. c. Book News Inc.
