Description

Explore the deep history and meaning behind Northwest Coast art with this academic study by Jonathan Meuli. Part of the Studies in Visual Culture series, this book provides a comprehensive look at how art objects have been understood from pre-Contact times to the modern era. Meuli examines how the physical locations and specific contexts where these objects are created help define their significance. By placing a linear historical narrative within a broader study of ethnographic art ideas, the text highlights connections across different cultures. The book also looks at the various attitudes toward Northwest Coast material culture and how these perspectives are expressed through oral traditions. This work is an essential resource for those interested in the evolution of indigenous art and the ways cultural identity is maintained through physical objects and storytelling.
