“The Newark Museum’s collection of Art of the Americas includes both Native North American art, the focus of a permanent gallery, and Latin American art. Its holdings comprise over 4,500 objects with a geographic span from Alaska to Argentina and a time span from the pre-Columbian era to the present.
The strengths of the Native North American art collection lie in works produced in the western and central United States, although art from the Great Lakes, Southwest, Plains and California are also well represented. While there is some pre-contact material (primarily ceramic and stone artifacts), most of the works date from the 19th to the late 20th century. The collection represents the diversity and richness of indigenous arts with a range of object types, from tools and household objects, personal objects and clothing, to ritual and ceremonial objects, and paintings and drawings.” Text courtesy of the Newark Museum. www.newarkmuseum.org.
