Publicerad text, engelska

A prolific, multimedia artist, Marcus Amerman (b. 1959, Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma) burst onto the Native American art scene in the 1980s. Born in Phoenix, and growing up in the Pacific Northwest, Amerman received his first degree in Fine Art at Whitman College, Walla Walla (WA), where he focused on painting and sculpture. Close to his Hopi extended family, Amerman attributes his artistic growth to the Institute of American Indian Art (IAIA) in Santa Fe. It was at IAIA that he alighted on fashion, then beadwork and performance as fertile forms of expression.

Important to know about the information in the online collection database

Users of the database are warned that some records may include language or terminology dating from the 19th and 20th centuries which depicted people in ways that are obsolete and/or offensive. We are conscious that the inclusion of such terminology is problematic. As an institution, we have chosen to include this historic information in our database because it is part of the documentation for the object, photograph, or archival item. Where known, objects associated with, or photographs depicting, ritual or ceremonial activity have been hidden in the publicly accessible database as there may be restrictions relating to the age, gender, initiation and ceremonial status or clan of the person who may see them. The database may also include the names of deceased persons, which could cause sadness or distress, particularly to relatives of these people.
