Art is a rich and ancient tradition among the Tewa Pueblo Indians
of northern New Mexico, going back to the pictures their ancestors
carved and painted on stone across the Southwest. Today Pueblo art
is created in an environment in which traditional forms overlap
with modern media. Nowhere is this fusion more evident than in the
art of Pueblo children. In Where There Is No Name for Art,
photographer and "art coach" Bruce Hucko introduces us to some of
his Tewa Pueblo students through their drawings, paintings, and
words and through his photographs of them at work and at play.
These children straddle two worlds. They participate in traditional
dances and play video games. They paint airplanes and horses,
basketball stars and sacred kivas. They also do their homework,
help with the chores, and listen to rap music. The children's
vibrant, imaginative artwork is complemented by their humorous and
thoughtful commentary on living in a changing culture. Presenting
an insider's view of what it means to be growing up Pueblo today,
the children talk about their families and their communities, share
their feelings about their culture, and discuss the process of
making art.
