Pi'ikea Clark: "The role of art and image-makers within the indigenous cultures of the twenty-first century needs to be determined by indigenous people themselves. While it is important that indigenous expression distinguish themselves throughout the art markets of the world, it is essential that indigenous art function to serve the community from which it extends." (Essay from the 2001 Longhouse gathering at Evergreen State College, Olympia, Washington
