American Indian Art
by Mitch Battese
American Indian Art is sometimes controversial and sometimes elusive. Contemporary Native American Artists maintain the traditions and culture of the aboriginal people of North America. This reflects the dynamic and sometimes painful changes that Native peoples have endured for hundreds of years. Native artists, in their work, cover the gamut of expression in all mediums and provide a sense of pride, ownership, emotions, and a gateway to spirituality and culture. These podcasts provide a window into a mysterious and complex culture that is full of dreams and visions. Artist, Mitch Battese, provides the illustrations in these very interesting podcasts.
