This tightly focused career retrospective, long overdue, presents iconic works that demonstrate the arc of her groundbreaking artistic output. \u003ci\u003eO' Powa O' Meng\u003c\/i\u003e showcases Folwell's remarkable contributions, integrating the trailblazing Native American artist within the wider canon of contemporary American art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis fully illustrated exhibition catalog, with contributions from the co-curators and leading Native artists, reveals how Folwell has revolutionized Pueblo pottery, and Native art more broadly, by pushing the boundaries of traditional form, content, and design. She was one of the first Pueblo artists to use pottery for political commentary and advocacy of social justice, and she singlehandedly set a trend, now widely used by younger clay artists, for using writing and designs as direct narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eAdriana Greci Green\u003c\/b\u003e is curator of Indigenous arts of the Americas at the Fralin Museum of Art. \u003cb\u003eJill Ahlberg Yohe\u003c\/b\u003e is a consulting curator of Native American art. \u003cb\u003eBruce Bernstein\u003c\/b\u003e is senior scholar at the School for Advanced Research in Santa Fe. \u003cb\u003eContributors: \u003c\/b\u003e Kevin Coochwytewa (Isleta Pueblo and Hopi), Kaa Folwell (Santa Clara Pueblo), Eliza Naranjo Morse (Santa Clara Pueblo), Les Namingha (Zuni and Tewa-Hopi), Tessie Naranjo (Santa Clara Pueblo), Cara Romero (Chemehuevi), Diego Romero (Cochiti Pueblo), Bird Runningwater (Cheyenne and Mescalero Apache), Rose B.
