The traditional arts of the indigenous peoples of North America were a significant part of the everyday lives of their creators. In each region at least one art form was developed in response to the environment, the ideology and way of life, and the availability of materials. In all regions animal skins were worked. The cultures of the Eastern woodlands, e.g., the tribes of the IROQUOIS confederacy, made pottery, baskets, quillwork, and beadwork as well as carved wooden masks. The Plains tribes, e.g., the Sioux, used beads and quills to paint or decorate their hides, which were used for clothing, containers, and teepees. Using stone, ivory, and bones, the Eskimo of the Arctic carved fine sculptures of animal life. The peoples of the Northwest Coast, e.g., the Kwakiutl, used elaborate wood-carving techniques to fabricate houses, huge canoes, and totem poles. In this work human and animal figures were stylized to abstraction. The Southwest tribes had a highly developed art whose tradition went back to pre-Columbian times. An art of strong, graphic, geometric design developed for pottery decoration. The Navajo developed sophisticated artistic techniques. In recent years, works of North American Indian artisans have come into vogue.
