About This Book

"Ellen Moore has written the first history of Navajo beadwork - belts and hatbands, baskets and necklaces - in a book that examines both the influence of Navajo beliefs in the creation of this art and the primacy of light and color in Navajo culture.

Navajo Beadwork: Architectures of Light traces the evolution of the art as explained by traders, Navajo consultants, and Navajo beadworkers themselves. It also shares the visions, words, and art of 23 individual artists to reveal the influences on their creativity and shows how they go about creating their designs."--Jacket.
