A Totem Pole History
The Work of Lummi Carver Joe Hillaire
Pauline Hillaire
Joseph Hillaire (Lummi, 1894_1967) is recognized as one of the great Coast Salish artists, carvers, and tradition-bearers of the twentieth century. In A Totem Pole History, his daughter Pauline Hillaire, Sc?lla_Of the Killer Whale (b. 1929), who is herself a well-known cultural historian and conservator, tells the story of her fatherês life and the traditional and contemporary Lummi narratives that influenced his work.
A Totem Pole History contains seventy-six photographs, including Joeês most significant totem poles, many of which Pauline watched him carve. She conveys with great insight the stories, teachings, and history expressed by her fatherês totem poles. Eight contributors provide essays on Coast Salish art and carving, adding to the authorês portrayal of Joeês philosophy of art in Salish life, particularly in the context of twentieth century intercultural relations.
This engaging volume provides an historical record to encourage Native artists and brings the work of a respected Salish carver to the attention of a broader audience.
