History of Indigenous Art of the Americas is an introduction to the art and visual culture of the Indigenous peoples of the American continents, including those of the Pacific Northwest. The course explores visual objects from prehistoric times until the present day, focusing on artistic process, rituals, and how art can be used as a tool for communication.
