83. THE COLLECTOR’S GUIDE: NATIVE AMERICAN BASKETS Some perspective on the long history of Native American basketry. These newcomers had little interest in Native American basketry until the late 19th http://www.collectorsguide.com/fa/fa004.shtml

Advanced Search Collecting and Change in Native American Basketry The practice of collecting baskets has spurred numerous changes this century. Based on early evidence, we know that prior to contact with European cultures, the basket-making tribes of the American West had created a repertoire of basket shapes and design elements specific, if not unique, to each tribal grouping. Tribal customs and artistic traditions dictated that basketry styles remained rather constant over time with little emphasis on experimentation or innovation. The volatile impact which Euro-Americans had on the native cultures was eventually reflected in the material culture of the various tribal groups, basketry being no exception. Tillamook Tribe, Western Oregon These newcomers had little interest in Native American basketry until the late 19th century when the belief that the native cultures of the West were soon to disappear. Motivated by this belief, some individuals began collecting Native American cultural material with an enthusiasm and appreciation previously unknown. Before these early collectors entered the arena, some Native American basketry had already begun to exhibit change as evidenced by the appearance of trade items incorporated into the baskets such as glass beads, commercial yarns and exotic feathers from the ostrich and peacock. However, these new materials were still utilized in the traditional manner as decorative elements merely substituting for native-made clam shell beads and wild bird feathers.

The Nihon Kogeikai (Japan Craft Arts Association) emphasizes beauty in functional form and technical excellency. The Kogeikai works with the Agency for Cultural Affairs in the selection of craft artists to be named as Living National Treasures of Japan. Some established artists choose to not be associated with a professional association. Young artists who have not yet joined an association are also included in this group.

Philbrook Museum of Art Tulsa, OK www.philbrook.org Front of Museum, photo by John Hazeltine Museum Gardens, photo by John Hazeltine Woven Worlds: Basketry from the Clark Field Collection "W oven Worlds: Basketry from the Clark Field Collection" is on display March 11-May 20, 2001 at The Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The tapestry of Native American cultures has been woven into their remarkable Basketry for centuries. This landmark exhibition explores the cultural and geographic diversity among Native Americans with over 250 baskets selected from Philbrook's world-renowned Clark Field Collection. These baskets, remarkable for their quality and breadth, honor tribal groups from the United States, Canada and northern Mexico, and weave together the inter-relationship between the artists and the collector, Clark Field. This special exhibition, and the companion catalogue, is the culmination of four years of concentration on Philbrook's encyclopedic collection of baskets created from the late nineteenth century to the 1960s. Spectacular examples of this fascinating craft include the national treasure Degikup (1918) by Washoe artist Louisa Keyser (Dat So La Lee) and an artistically superior Pomo feather basket.

Egypt Home Antiquities Shop Get Price for Tour ... Message Basketry in Ancient and Modern Egypt by Heba Fatteen Bizzari Basket making is one of the worlds oldest forms of craft, and therefore not surprisingly a part of ancient Egyptian tradition. Basketry is known from the earliest sites in Egypt. Remains of baskets have been found in the Fayoum dating to the Neolithic period, about 5000 BC. Basketry found in a Predynastic context is often of very high quality, not surpassed later. There were several words used to denote baskets, including mndm, nbt and dnit. In general, baskets can be categorized into at least three primary descriptive classes, based on their construction and form, each exhibiting a wide range of variations. The three classes are coiled, twined and plaited, and all three types are known from ancient Egypt. In coiled construction, a basket is formed by spirally coiling a continuous foundation of tightly wrapped bundles of fibers which creates a circular or oval base and walls. This coiled foundation is then bound by stitching, which intersects and binds the successive coils one to another. The stitching usually provides the products unique look. In the Bee-skep technique of coiling, the stitches are spaced widely apart without touching one another. The Furcate coil technique uses the new stitch to split the stitch in the preceding coil.

Katsinas Navajo Weaving Clay Beings ... SAR Home Southwestern Indian Basketry November 2-5, 1997 Old Roots, New Growth: Adaptation and Innovation in Contemporary Southwestern Indian Basketry D ubin Artist Fellow Kevin Navasie , a yucca ring basketmaker from Hopi First Mesa, worked at the IARC throughout the summer on his baskets, and assisted with the November 1997 Indian Basketry Convocation. This meeting brought together ten accomplished basketmakers from throughout the southwest who represented Santa Clara Pueblo, Navajo, Akimel O'Odam, Tohano O'Odam, Jicarilla Apache, and several different Hopi villages. The School commissioned a basket from each weaver for the permanent collection, provided a stipend, space in a twelve bedroom house so all the participants could live together, meals and transportation, and assisted with their study of the basketry collection here. The convocation participants spent four days of intense discussion and debate on topics at the frontiers of this artform including the creative process; the past, present, and future of this ancient tradition; and styles, materials, and techniques. The goal of this convocation was to provide an opportunity for in-depth communication among these highly skilled artists whose work is among the finest, most creative being produced today. The School provided the format to facilitate and encourage productive discussion that broadened the horizons of individual participants and lead to the dissemination of information for scholarly and public audiences.

97. IARC-Basketry The basketry collection is a wellused resource and represents all basketmaking cultures in the southwest throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. http://www.sarweb.org/iarc/collection/basketry.htm

IARC Home Page SAR Home Basketry T he basketry collection is a well-used resource and represents all basketmaking cultures in the southwest throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. For his comprehensive history of this oldest southwestern craft, Andrew H. Whiteford drew extensively on the IARC collection. Although this is by no means the largest collection of southwestern Indian basketry, numbering about 890 objects, it is an excellent, representative study collection, offering a rare opportunity to view this art form's stylistic development across cultures and time. In the Jicarilla Apache collection four generations of basket makers from one family are represented, and the contemporary San Juan Paiute collection is perhaps the largest extant. The many uses of baskets for collecting and storing grains, carrying loads, cooking and serving food, holding water, and for many other purposes are reflected in the IARC collection. The School's basket collection provides the younger generations of basketmakers who use it an opportunity to associate traditional values from older pieces with their own new and imaginative baskets. The collection is documented in Andrew Hunter Whiteford's Southwestern Indian Baskets (SAR Press 1988).

98. Florida Tropical Weavers Guild Odessa, Florida group who educate the public on the art and craft of weaving, spinning and basketry. Information on state conference. http://www.ftwg.org/index.htm

Home Board Conference 2005 Pictures Winning Items Vendors Door Prize Donors ... Workshops FLORIDA TROPICAL WEAVERS' GUILD Home Florida Tropical Weaver's Guild is a non-profit organization whose primary mission is to educate the public on the art and craft of weaving, spinning and basketry. It's membership consists of anyone who is interested in promoting opportunities for weavers of all skill levels to develop new skills, interests and expand their creative efforts in the fiber arts. The state guild was formed March 5, 1943, precipitated by the Florida Department of Agriculture - Sea Island Bureau re-introducing cotton in the state as a commercial crop in 1935. Individuals were sought who could teach the public about the many aspects of cotton - growth, processing, and use. Naturally, spinning and weaving were an integral part of this and teachers were identified in the Orlando area who would teach a cottage industry of spinning and weaving cotton cloth. This simple education project took hold across the state. Individual guilds were formed and, in 1943, the Florida Tropical Weaver's Guild was formed as a way of joining individual guilds together and providing further support to the education efforts. We have come a long way, building on a foundation of the love of fiber, the desire to learn technical weaving skills and the creative urge to expand the use and manipulation of cloth. This is evident as you look back on past conferences and the classes offered.
