0, A new and exciting voice in contemporary art that enriches the wider discourse on Native women artists Rose B. Simpson (b. 1983), a mixed-media artist from Santa Clara Pueblo, New Mexico, is from a long lineage of women working in ceramics in her tribe, dating back hundreds of years. Her signature figures draw heavily on her ancestral Kha'po Owingeh (Santa Clara Pueblo) tribe's centuries-long ceramic tradition while also integrating modern methods, materials, and processes to express bold interventions in colonial legacies of dependency, erasure, and assimilation. Published on the occasion of a large-scale commission for the Cleveland Museum of Art, this richly illustrated volume features essays that contextualize Simpson's work in terms of the history of art, Indigenous feminisms, and Native American art in general. It also includes a moderated conversation with the artist that elucidates Simpson's conceptual framework and practice.

The Coit Tower Murals: New Deal Art and Political Controversy in San Francisco
5, Created in 1934, the Coit Tower murals were sponsored by the Public Works of Art Project (PWAP), the first of the New Deal art programs. Twenty-five master artists and their assistants worked there, most of them in buon fresco, Nearly all of them drew upon the palette and style of Diego Rivera. The project boosted the careers of Victor Arnautoff, Lucien Labaudt, Bernard Zakheim, and others, but Communist symbols in a few murals sparked the first of many national controversies over New Deal art. Sixty full-color photographs illustrate Robert Cherny's history of the murals from their conception and completion through their evolution into a beloved San Francisco landmark. Cherny traces and critiques the treatment of the murals by art critics and historians. He also probes the legacies of Coit Tower and the PWAP before surveying San Francisco's recent controversies over New Deal murals. An engaging account of an artistic landmark, The Coit Tower Murals tells the full story behind a public art masterpiece.
