Dear Art Educators,

Here is a different twist for your Native American units......
You can tie in Roy Lichtenstein, too.
I think you will find many lesson ideas if you browse the book. Maybe
a nearby university would have it.

Here are links to the book
Roy Lichtenstein: American Indian Encounters
http://www.amazon.com/Roy-Lichtenstein-American-Indian-Encounters/dp/081353738X
http://rutgerspress.rutgers.edu/acatalog/__Roy_Lichtenstein_2217.html
"Beyond his fascination for icons of popular culture, however,
Lichtenstein had a little-known, but deep appreciation for the objects
and images of American Indian culture. This book explores in detail
and fully illustrates a virtually unknown collection of his paintings
and works on paper that were influenced by his encounters with Native
American subjects"

If anyone does a lesson, send it my way. Folks often ask for Native
American art lesson plans.
