NDN Art 2008 --- Teri Greeves, Kiowa
What is art ? What is Indian ? Do you consider yourself a native artist or an artist or both ?
These are just some of the questions that Teri Greeves has been presented with throughout her career. Greeves created this beautifully beaded work in response to these types of questions by using a stereotypical image of a figure in a warbonnet, and inspired by 1960s Pop Art artist Roy Lichtenstein’s oil painting ART. With this work she challenges the impulse to define and limit Native Art.
