VASE, c. 1904 Glazed white clay Alice Gouvy, designer Tiffany Pottery "Have nothing in your houses which you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful," William Morris declared in 1880. Morris was a leader of the Arts and Crafts movement, which originated in Britain in the late 19th century and soon spread to America.This group of reformers, passionately committed to righting the ills they saw in an increasingly industrialized and urban society, chose the arts as their medium. They were convinced that industrialization had degraded the work process and destroyed the environment, reducing the formerly creative craftsman to an anonymous laborer mindlessly repeating unfulfilling tasks. And they condemned the host of ornate, indiscriminately adopted revival styles - from Louis XIV to the Rococo Revival - that dominated the architecture and decorative arts of the Victorian period. Morse Museum The collections at the Morse Museum illustrate the goals of the Arts and Crafts movement - the revival of hand craftsmanship, the creation of more satisfying working conditions and the elevation of the decorative arts to the status of fine arts through design unity.

43. Southwestern Arts & Crafts Of Native Americans (DesertUSA) The purpose of this article is to introduce you to a variety of native american arts and crafts, as well as the religious, cultural and economic influences http://www.desertusa.com/mag98/dec/stories/craft.html

By Lynn M. Bremner Native American cultures of the Southwest portray a colorful and varied heritage through their fine arts and crafts. Many of the designs and symbols prominent in Native American craftwork represent ideas that are important to their cultures. Images of crops, rain, feathers, lightning, animals and other nature symbols are prominent in Native American art. The purpose of this article is to introduce you to a variety of Native American arts and crafts, as well as the religious, cultural and economic influences that have shaped their development. All craftwork has an economic purpose to use, to buy or to trade. For centuries, Native American crafts have been used in religious ceremonies, to barter for trade or for their utility, as a functional part of every day life. Through the centuries, new ideas, changing markets, and the introduction of new tools and materials have greatly influenced the development of their craftwork. Basketry and pottery are some of the oldest and most functional of Native American crafts. Silverwork, painting on paper and commercial sandpaintings are newer art forms, that have been driven by European influences and developing markets. Other items such as Kachina carvings and fetishes have been used for centuries to represent and Kachina Dolls The Hopi believe that all things in the world have both a spiritual form and a material form. They do not worship the Kachinas, but consider them allies of the pueblo and are respected by the villagers. There are more than 200 different Kachina spirits ranging from butterflies, eagles and bugs, to the sun, corn and clouds.

45. Native American Communities In West Virginia Traditional arts and crafts are practiced widely in The strong craft tradition of the native plans include the development of a local native american Museum. http://www.wvculture.org/arts/ethnic/native.html

Native American Communities in West Virginia (as originally published in 1999) In West Virginia, the contemporary Native American population can best be described as a statewide community, consisting of a far-reaching network of individuals with Native American ancestry. There are approximately 3000 Native Americans in West Virginia. The community includes individuals from at least 43 different bloodlines and tribal associations. These are descendants from the regional Native Americans, including Cherokee and Shawnee, and individuals who more recently relocated to West Virginia from throughout North America. Many people in West Virginia have Native American blood, but do not have a historical tribal association, and many individuals have mixed blood, that is, ancestry of different tribes as well as different races in addition to Native American. The contemporary community reflects those who are finding new pride in their native heritage, and Native Americans who are newcomers to this area and who represent the pan-Indian community. The Native American community has struggled with oppression, imposed disruption, and insecurity since the arrival of European settlers in West Virginia. Individuals were being shipped away to Oklahoma reservations as late as the 1950s. As recently as 1964, it was illegal for a Native American to own property in West Virginia. In spite of these hardships, vestiges of communities survived and their heritage is re-emerging with renewed pride.

The Arts and Crafts Movement was an international stylistic movement that turned everyday objects into artistic statements, valued hand-craftsmanship and rejected the industrial ideals of economy and profit. Inspired by an eclectic mix of English, Native American and Spanish arts and principles, the Movement promoted honesty, purity, simplicity of design and materials, and craftsmanship. At its peak between 1890 and 1920, the Movement influenced decorative arts, architecture, and book and textile design. "Advocates strongly believed that through handicraft, either by making it or living with it, people would attain and enjoy a better life, " said Curator Karen Blanchfield. Popularizers of the Movement in the U.S. included

DreamCatchers Legend states that the DreamCatchers should be hung over the sleeping person's bed so that the sacred web of life can catch the bad dreams. The good dreams pass through the center hole and are fulfilled in the sleeper's destiny. The bad dreams caught in the web will disappear with the first light of day. Mandalas They are sacred symbols of the Universe. In many tribes they are variations of dance shields used by the Plains Nations. They are adorned with designs and fetishes that have special meaning to the owner and are meant to bring them happiness and prosperity. Some use the mandela for meditation and prayer. Shield Plains Indian - 1880s Photo by Tony Walsh Shields Among the Plains Nations, a war shield was made of buffalo hide from around the neck because it was thicker. The Warrior's shield was his "medicine". It protected him from harm and gave him special sacred powers. The painting on the shield and the Scared objects tied to it, all had special meaning to the owner and those Sacred qualities were in turn given to the owner of the shield. Ceremonial Lances Ceremonial lances as the name implies were used mostly for dances, parades, and pow-wows. Most of the lances are tipped with a flint spearhead. The overall length is about six or seven feet with twenty-four eagle feathers attached to one side of the shaft. Red cloth is used to attach the feathers to the shaft. The shaft may be oiled or painted.

fig. 1: Ghost Dance Remnant . Liquid light on muslin Native American Women Photographers As Storytellers Professor Emerita, New Mexico State University For Native American women photographers, identity is expressed in many ways. In Ghost Dance Remnant (fig. 1), Pamela Shields carefully constructs a collage that combines objects and images that recall specific aspects of her community's history. Her collages are complex visual stories that invite a complex reading. She uses Indian signifiers heaped one upon the other that take the viewer back into the past with her. Theresa Harlan (Director of the Carl Gorman Museum at the University of California, Davis) a Native American critic who has written perceptively and extensively about Native American women's art, calls Shields and other Native women artists "message carriers." They carry messages about Native cultures through their photography. The artists experiment with a wide range of photographic techniques. While sometimes women use straight photography and the silver print, at other times they use oil paint on photographs, hand-tint black and white photographs, photomontage, collage, or even use liquid light on muslin. In other words, they employ all the various techniques available to contemporary photographers. The women refuse to photograph some parts of their culture, especially religious objects and rituals, which most Native people feel inappropriate to represent visually. Many are hesitant to photograph people of cultures other than their own, feeling that Euro-Americans have been particularly insensitive and intrusive in their photography of indigenous cultures.
