SO-SCH-2013-9780764344299-X2 Hopi Kachinas: History, Legends, and Art by Ron Pecina and Bob Pecina ISBN:9780764344299 Book Title:Hopi Kachinas: History, Legends, and Art Author:Ron Pecina and Bob Pecina Binding:Hard Cover with dust jacket Copyright:2013 Pages:192 Size:8.5 x 11 in. The Hopi Indian's rich culture and exciting religious ceremonies continue to thrive. However, outsiders have limited opportunity to witness the exciting Katsina dances and ceremonies of the Hopi, save through the well-known and much prized kachina dolls the Katsina spiritually inform. Presenting work from a select set of recognizable Hopi artists, this book relates the detailed history and culture of the Hopis in tandem with their creative efforts to showcase that framework: from remarkable paintings to the kachina sculptures and dolls that manifest as physical representations of the Katsinam, the Hopis' spiritual beings. These pieces complement the Pecina's studious and informative narrative of chronological vignettes and text based on a careful selection of events in Hopi history, oral teachings of great cultural significance, and legends of the Katsinam. Hopi Kachinas presents a clear and meticulous portrait of the Hopis beliefs, history, legends, their Katsina celebrations, and the personas of the Katsinam. This book illuminates the stage of study for scholars, and is vital for students of the Hopi culture. 155 color images (SO Schiffer Categorical generated 2024-11-04) 5311eda60c3691dc9b21792ed81352a1
