The Navajo sandpainting is a powerful tool used in many ceremonies. They portray the supernatural beings the Navajo call on to restore balance in their lives. This catalog, which accompanies the exhibit of the same name, gives background history about images in the weaving artform as well as family histories and family trees of some well-known weavers. Photographs in both black and white and color bring the viewer a wonderful glimpse of the weavings and their makers.
