Developed in conjunction with the first extensive exhibition of the art and culture of the Coast Salish peoples of Washington State and British Columbia, the book traces the development of Salish art from prehistory to the present. Sculpture in wood, stone, and bone--including monumental house posts--as well as expertly crafted basketry, woven regalia, and contemporary works in glass, print media, and painting showcase a sweeping artistic tradition and its contemporary vibrant manifestations.S'abadeb is the Lushootseed term for "gifts" and invokes a principle at the heart of Salish sculpture: reciprocity, both in the public and spiritual domains. This richly symbolic word expresses the importance of giving gifts at potlatches, of giving thanks during first food ceremonies, of the creativity bestowed upon artists and other leaders, and of the roles of the master artists, oral historians, and cultural leaders in passing vital cultural information to the next generations. The theme of S'abadeb and practices of reciprocal exchange in Salish society are illuminated here through the intersection of art with ceremony, oral traditions, the land, and contemporary realities." Contents by the authors listed above include: Storied arts: lushootseed gifting across time and space, Kwulasulwut: teachings of the past, treasures of the future, Traditional teachings about coast Salish art , The recognition of coast Salish art, how did it all get there? tracing the path of Salish art in collections, A dialogue about coast salish aesthetics, Remembrance, symbols of identity, containers for knowledge and memories, Objects of function and beauty: basketry of the Southern Coast Salish, Weaving in beauty, weaving in time, More than transportation: the traditional canoes of Puget Sound, et. al. 279 pages with large color plates throughout.
