A rare American Indian photographer who documented Indian subjects, Poolaw began making a visual history in the mid-1920s and continued for the next fifty years. When he sold his photos, he often stamped the reverse: A Poolaw Photo, Pictures by an Indian, Horace M. Poolaw, Anadarko, Okla. Not simply by an Indian, but by a Kiowa man strongly rooted in his multi-tribal community, Poolaws work celebrates his subjects place in American life and preserves an insiders perspective on a world few outsiders are familiar with-the Native America of the southern plains during the mid-twentieth century.For a Love of His People: The Photography of Horace Poolaw is based on the Poolaw Photography Project, a research initiative established by Poolaws daughter Linda in 1989 at Stanford University and carried on by Native scholars Nancy Marie Mithlo (Chiricahua Apache) and Tom Jones (Ho-Chunk) of the University of Wisconsin-Madison.Distributed for the National Museum of the American Indian\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51928212177184,"sku":"NEW0300197454","price":70.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/for-a-love-of-his-people-the-photography-of-horace-poolaw-the-henry-roe-cloud-series-on-american-indians-and-modernity-0300197454","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
