The Southwest has long beckoned the artist. But too often, art made by Euro-Americans drawn to this region has either 'basked in the sunny celebration of the picturesque, the exotic, and the sentimental' or appropriated the myths and art of Native Americans. In this collection of essays, Udall explores the work of some of he painters who have found stimulus in the ideas, people, and myths of the Southwest, among them Georgia O'Keeffe, Marsden Hartley, Page Allen, and Woody Gwyn.
