This first portfolio of the two-portfolio set is complete in itself, being devoted to depictions of paintings of the Sioux and other tribes of the Great Plains from a number of Sioux, Shoshone, and Kiowa artists.OCLC Number: 953431503Notes: English and French.Edition limited to 400 numbered copies signed by publisher.Contains works by Kills Two (Nupa Kte), Amos Bad Heart Buffalo (Tatanka Cante Sice), Pretty Hawk, Chief Washakie, Chief Charles Washakie, Katsikodi, and Silver Horn (Haun-goo-ah).The portfolios were instrumental in promoting and recognizing the worth of Native American art. Having its genesis in the 1931 Exposition of Indian Tribal Art that was mounted at Grand Central Art Galleries, this publication is one of the most significant renderings of Native American art, presenting works painted by several important artists, including Amos Bad Heart Buffalo (1869-1913). Part of their significance is that they show history from the Native American viewpoint, one considerably rarer than that presented by their more prolific American and European counterparts who roamed the West in search of subjects and displayed their works in galleries on both sides of the Atlantic. The exhibition and this publication presented Native American paintings as works of art rather than mere ethnographic curiosities to be studied for such details as costumes and customs, probably for the first time. This change was part of the quest at the time for art that was uniquely American, rather than American art that looked like it could have been painted in Europe. These paintings also captured events and persons not witnessed or recorded by others, especially the impatient Anglos who were overrunning the land and culture of Native Americans. The volume editor, Hartley Burr Alexander, provides a valuable introduction on Native American art and the place these images have in it. He considered the Plains Indians, whose work is shown here, to be the most accomplished of all Native American artists and lamented that their earlier works had vanished because of the fragile media on which they were originally executed. He also believed that the artists presented here were among the most significant Native American painters and that their works represented the apex of their craft. While admitting that the artists often painted in a non-realistic manner and sometimes concentrated on symbolism, he also argued persuasively that the artists were assuredly artists who deserved respect and admiration for their skills and techniques. Among the somewhat unrealistic features he noted was the Native American practice of rarely including realistic facial features, which, as he notes, rarely change from image to image. On the other hand, he remarks with some admiration on the skill with which the artists depict animals. He seems to harbor few doubts about the accuracy of the diurnal details of dress and custom that the paintings portray. He is particularly redolent in his praise for the painting and compositional skills of Amos Bad Heart Buffalo, who did the images in the second volume, including one of himself as a cowboy trailing a herd. Alexander gives a brief explanation of what is depicted in every image, sometimes with short critical commentary. The subjects treated in the paintings range widely, from legends, to daily activities, to portraits of famous leaders, to religious ceremonies (including the peyote ritual). Even a freak accident is depicted.…
