Publisher's Comments (cont.)
Ostrowitz is an art historian and an artist who lives in New York, is affiliated with Yale University, and is a former assistant curator at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. Here she presents a thorough, scholarly exploration of the complex issues of authenticity, tradition, and creative translation carefully considering Northwest Coast dances, ceremonies, masks, painted screens, and houses, and drawing on an extensive body of interviews with tribal leaders, artists, and artisans known and respected in both Native and non-Native venues.
