A stunning survey, ideal as an introduction to the internationally recognized world of Haida art. A stunning package of 120 finely reproduced images, featuring contemporary as well as traditional work. Haida art is often discussed with little reference to its creators and their homeland, Haida Gwaii or the Queen Charlotte Islands. Raven Travelling situates Haida art where it has always belonged, inseparable from its people and at the very apex of the great accomplishments of human creativity. The book follows the monumental achievements of renowned Haida artists like Bill Reid, and contemporary artists like Robert Davidson, Don Yeomans and Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas, and the defining myths of origin that continue to inspire them, even while the next generation pushes the boundaries of tradition
