The art of Edgar Heap of Birds as it come to life in these pages guides us into the dense interplay between seemingly familiar contemporary forms that in fact derive from a lifetime of contemplation on the Cheyenne and Arapaho world the artist belongs to and the art-making that grows therefrom. Bill Anthes impressively appreciates the technical virtuosity Heap of Birds revels in even as he finds a path toward understanding growing spiritual and intellectual wisdom--and perhaps more than anything the great joy, humor, and hope--that have long fueled the art Edgar Heap of Birds makes. --Robert Warrior, editor of The World of Indigenous North America
