本文以威拉·凯瑟的作品为考察对象,从宗教、建筑、日常生活三个方面分析了北美印第安人的艺术。印第安艺术融汇了原住民对生命的理解、对宇宙的感悟、对未来的憧憬。他们是真正的艺术家,从生活中提炼艺术,用艺术照亮生活,在天地间实践着诗意的栖居。 This article takes the works of Willa Cather as the object of study, and analyzes the art of North American Indians from the aspects of religion, architecture and daily life. Indian art integrates Aboriginal understanding of life, perception of the universe, the vision of the future. They are real artists, refining art from life, illuminating life with art, and practicing poetic dwelling between heaven and earth.
