This special pottery combines the traditions of Pueblo and Navajo
artists from Arizona and New Mexico with daring new interpretaions
by the modern generation. In hundreds of beautiful color photos,
styles inherently connected with old beliefs and Southwest clay are
shown to have a fresh appearance in the hands of contemporary
potters. Bowls, plates ollas, pitchers, and vases by potters in
Acoma, Hopi, Jemez, Navajo, San Felipe, San Ildefonso, San Juan,
Santa Ana, Zia, and Zuni families are featured along with
storytellers and charming animal figures. The Directory of Artists,
including kachina carvers, jewelry makers, sculptors, and potters,
cross-references the pottery shown in this book. This reference
section alone makes the work indispensible for all who are
concerned with contemporaty Indian arts.
