Attribution
Jennifer McLerran
Publication Details
Book, University of Arizona Press, 2009
Description
In A New Deal for Native Art Jennifer McLerran reveals how positioning the native artist as a pre-modern Other served the goals of New Deal programs?and how this sometimes worked at cross-purposes with promoting native self-sufficiency. In this first book to address the ways in which New Deal Indian policy specifically advanced commodification and colonization, McLerran reviews its multi-pronged effort to improve the market for Indian art through the Indian Arts and Crafts Board, arts and crafts cooperatives, murals, museum exhibits, and Civilian Conservation Corps projects.

Indigeneity In The Mexican Cultural Imagination : Thresholds Of Belonging

Attribution
Analisa Taylor
Publication Details
Book, University of Arizona Press, 2009
Description
Yet, until now, no single book has combined the various elements of this process to provide a comprehensive look at the Indian in Mexico?s cultural imagination. The book focuses on representations of indigenous peoples in post-revolutionary literary and intellectual history by examining key cultural texts. In addition, she moves beyond her analysis of indigenous peoples in general to take a gendered look at indigenous women ranging from the villainized Malinche to the highly romanticized and sexualized Zapotec women of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec.
