$40.00
Description
Words by Ann M. Wolfe
This large-scale book presents breathtaking Native American basketry made by the Washoe people who have lived in the Lake Tahoe region of California and Nevada for millennia.
This book explores fine art and functional basketry made by Washoe weavers, who are recognized for their intricate and meticulous weaving techniques and complex designs. Drawing inspiration and natural materials from their ancestral homelands, Washoe baskets reflect the deep cultural reverence of their makers for the environment, particularly the sacred site of Lake Tahoe, the surrounding Sierra Nevada, and adjacent valleys. Among Washoe weavers, Louisa Keyser, also known as Datsolalee, is widely regarded as one of the most innovative, important, and famous basketmakers in North America. The book provides a deeper understanding of the cultural, historical, and political contexts in which these remarkable baskets were created, making it an essential read for anyone interested in Indigenous art and culture.

Sudpsuez At Home in The American Barn
Words by James B. Garrison
At Home in the American Barn examines the fascinating possibilities for living and adaptive reuse provided by the expansive spaces and rough-hewn look of these traditional structures. Nationwide, Americans are turning to structures such as the barn with a mind to renovating them to fit the lifestyles of today, redesigning these often-wonderful places of the past into residential spaces. At Home in the American Barn embraces the dream to slow things down and return to basics and shares some success stories, as made plain by the buildings themselves.This richly illustrated volume focuses on the barn as home. Each of the structures featured has been adapted from its original utilitarian purpose to allow for comfortable, joyous living. Built at first as places for work, barns nevertheless often demonstrate fine craftsmanship and artistry. This volume emphasizes the rare beauty of these structures and shows throughout elegant solutions for living in these beautifully imagined homes. Soaring rafters here allow for dramatic chandeliers in one home or a wall of magnificent bookcases in another. Spaces that are unconventional in a traditional domestic sense here serve as springboards for inspiration that allow for, in one home, a spiral staircase of fantasy made from hand-planed wood, and, in another, a wall of glass that lets in the sun. At Home in The American Barn shows the way that this can be done successfully and artfully.
