What People are Saying About This
"Makes available a unique and fascinating body of modern art that, as interpreted by the author, expands our understanding not only of Native American but also of American modernism during the first half of the twentieth century."
"Mary Sully’s art stops you in your tracks. So do the interpretations offered by her great-nephew Phil Deloria. Deloria argues that Sully was a ‘native to modernism,’ an extraordinary early twentieth-century talent whose personality prints disrupt the categories of American Indian and modernist art genres. Once again, Deloria sets the bar for brilliant Indigenous scholarship that elevates our understandings of our shared—Indigenous and non-Indigenous—world."
