Helen Cordero and the Storytellers of the Cochiti Pueblo

Native American artist Helen Cordero (1915-1994) is best known for her remarkable clay Storytellers--figures of mothers, fathers, grandmothers, and grandfathers covered with tumbling children. Get to know her work, and that of other artists from the Cochiti Pueblo in New Mexico. Unique activities encourage kids to use their imagination to enter the New Mexican pueblo, to explore the details of the sculptures, to think like an artist, and to develop their own creative ideas. They'll enjoy traditional Cochiti legends, draw pictures with characteristic designs, and even make their own Storytellers.48 pages (all in color), 8 1/2 x 10. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.
