Creativity
Golden, CO: Fulcrum Publishing, 1994.
This is the book that accompanied the exhibition of the same name.
In a turnaround view, the European idea of "art" focuses more on
the object or the product, whereas for Native American
craftspeople the process and the materials used in creating is as
important (sometimes more important) than the finished product.
Native American artists represented here are from Canada, the
continental United States, Alaska and Hawaii.
