GREETINGS!
We would like to share something important from the Native arts community with you. As a service to the community, American Indian Artists Inc. (AMERINDA) is hosting a comprehensive web-based roster of North American Indian traditional and contemporary artists of the greater New York City area. The NAAR is a single source of multi-disciplinary information of the rich array of emerging and established Native American artists from the many disciplines who live and work in New York City and the surrounding metropolitan area.
"Like the city in which it developed, the hallmark of the New York Contemporary Native American Art Movement is its diversity. Since the 1940's, indigenous artists have flocked to the New York to cultivate their own work in dialogue with the developments of the city's art scene." David Bunn Martine (Nednai-Chiricahua Apache/Montauk/Shinnecock), No Reservation: New York Contemporary Native American Art Movement |
The Native Artist Roster is designed and built
to serve the needs of the artist; introduce Native American artists
to the mainstream arts world; and create larger audiences for Native
American art. The roster is a publicly available archive of comprehensive,
easily accessible information that we hope will put the artists themselves
directly in contact with more opportunities.
You can search for an artist in three ways:
| → Discipline | → Native Nation | → Name |
Click on the menu buttons or the links above to search for an artist within one of these criteria. If you would like to be listed in the Native American Artist Roster you can dowload the guidelines and application with the links below. We highly recommend you download the NAAR BioBuilder, as it will help you create a bio that is appropriate for the roster. The files are PDF documents and you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to be able to open and print them. You can download a free copy by clicking below on the Get Adobe Reader Button.
