XX [From the text] The objects in this collection were chosen as works of art rather than ethnologic artifacts. They were selected with the critical view that the standards that one applies to the art of the Renaissance, of China, of classical antiquity and of the modern world also are applicable to the art of the Plains Indians of North America. The aesthetic production of the Plains Indians was abundant, filled the everyday existence of this remarkable people, dominated their ceremonial occasions and in every way expressed a joyous celebration of life. Part of the difficulty that scholars once experienced in critically evaluating Plains Indian art is that it was so completely integrated into its society and so different from European art. Indian women created high art matter-of-factly, not differentiating between creation and more mundane occupations. Art for them was inseparable from life, and each individual functioned as an artist, although some excelled at expanding socially imposed limits while others simply worked within the structure of conventionalized motifs. The plains culture was an amalgam. Village tribes acquired horses brought from Europe and liberated themselves into a nomadic warrior life, with an artistic, religious and military presence that was ritualized, stylized, and codified in ways not unlike those of Japan's samurai. The plains phenomenon existed for about 200 years, reaching its artistic zenith in the latter half of the 19th century. The flowering of the warrior lifestyle with its bold aesthetic principles was deeply affected by the growing European penetration of the plains. The newly available range of artistic raw materials dazzled the bronze-age plains artists, yet they triumphantly adapted these new media to their own values and sensitivities while rejecting the European notion of art as separate from life. The intricate beadwork that is the eponym of Plains Indian art was created of beads made in Europe but adapted to the technology and designs of earlier quillwork embroidery and hide painting. Increasingly the plains tribes came to depend on white traders to obtain beads, dye, vermillion, calico, muslin, and Stroud and List cloth. Every possible manufactured object was worked into the traditional design scheme. Thimbles and brass cartridges became bells, tin pots and tobacco tins were cut up to make janglers. Small trade mirrors and bone beads and sea shells readily combined with ribbons, feathers, brass bells, fringing and painting.
