Timeless Textiles: Traditional Pueblo Arts 1840-1940

by Tyrone D. Campbell

The Ancestral Pueblo people of the Southwest were excellent weavers; plain cotton cloth appeared in the archaeological record by the first century AD. Published in conjunction with an exhibition of pueblo weaving at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture in Santa Fe, "Timeless Textiles presents a survey of textiles from 1840 to 1940 that have been overshadowed by the more glamorous Navajo blanket and rug traditions.

Publisher Description

'Timeless Textiles' follows the Pueblo weaving tradition through a tumultuous century during which many changes took place in Pueblo life and after which weaving fell into sharp decline. The 100 years between 1840 and 1940 represents a classic period in Pueblo textile production, yet the magnificent textiles produced during this time are little known outside of the Pueblo world. This catalogue accompanies an exhibit at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture in Santa Fe running from 17 May 2003 to 15 February 2004.
