Ira Yeager
Indian Paintings
8.5x11 P.B. 128 pgs

In his Indian paintings, Ira Yeager allows his humanity as an artist to shine through without sentimentality but with a profoundly moving display of character and gravitas. These paintings, of course, cannot undo or make up for the wrongs inflicted on Chief Joseph and countless other Native Americans, but they serve to remind us of an often-underemphasized aspect of who we are and where we come from as Americans that should never be forgotten.
