This is a scholarly book with the usual apparatus and takes into account a range of theoretical approaches but is written clearly enough to offer something to serious general readers. -- Andrea Kirsh * Artblog * <i>Art for an Undivided Earth</i> reframes Native American art history in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, revising our understanding of modernism and contemporary art. Highlighting Native North American artists as key figures for imagining the global contemporary, Jessica Horton demonstrates that the much-celebrated global turn has in fact characterized Native North American experience and cultural production since 1492. Based on exhaustive and imaginative research, this book should transform the field and help change the way that Native American artists are understood and taught. --Bill Anthes, author of Edgar Heap of Birds Author InformationJessica L.
