Samenvatting
In the early twentieth century a group of elite East Coast women turned to the American Southwest in search of an alternative to European-derived concepts of culture. Description of the growing influence that this network of women has on the Native American art market as well as the influence these activities had on them. Drawing on fiction, memoires and accounts the author shows how anthropological notions of culture were used to valorize Indian art and create a Southwest Indian art market. |
