<p style="text-align: center;">Prior to contact with Europeans, Native American tribes on the Northwest coast evolved complex social and ceremonial groups, as well as permanent settlements. These groups hold various tangible and intangible rights and properties. Among them are the stories passed down from ancestors. Many of the Northwest coastal arts are visual expressions of these stories. After European contact, in the late 18th century, the people groups that produced Northwest Coast art suffered huge population losses due to diseases cultural losses due to the assimilation into European-North American culture. The production of their art dropped drastically as well.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Toward the end of the 19th century, northwest coastal artists began producing work for commercial sale. By the end of the 19th century, there was large-scale export of totem <img data-attachment-id="3364" data-permalink="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/2019/02/28/region-8-art-architecture-the-pacific-northwest-fun-facts/totem-indio-norteamericano-600x483/" data-orig-file="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/totem-indio-norteamericano-600x483.jpg" data-orig-size="600,483" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{";aperture";:";0";,";credit";:";";,";camera";:";";,";caption";:";";,";created_timestamp";:";0";,";copyright";:";";,";focal_length";:";0";,";iso";:";0";,";shutter_speed";:";0";,";title";:";";,";orientation";:";1";}" data-image-title="totem-indio-norteamericano-600&;#215;483" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/totem-indio-norteamericano-600x483.jpg" data-large-file="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/totem-indio-norteamericano-600x483.jpg" class=" wp-image-3364 alignleft" src="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/totem-indio-norteamericano-600x483.jpg" alt="totem-indio-norteamericano-600x483" width="325" height="262" />poles, masks and other traditional art objects from the region to museums and private collectors around the world. By the early 20th century, very few indigenous artists in the northwest coast region were producing art, although there were those who maintained a link to older traditions. The mid-20th century saw a revival of interest and production of northwest coast art, due to the influence of historians, artists and critics. A revival of traditional ceremonial ways also drove the increased production of traditional arts. This time also saw an increasing demand for the return of art objects that were illegally or immorally taken from Native American communities. This demand continues to the present day. Today, there are numerous art schools teaching formal Northwest Coast art of various styles, and there is a growing market for new art in this style. The revival of ceremonial life, has also driven production of traditional clothing, painting and carving for use in ceremonies.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Although no significant architectural structures from the era before European settlement survive as anything more than archaeological sites, architecture in the Pacific Northwest includes designs that have reflected and influenced numerous architectural styles over time, and are unique to the Northwest.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">*The Pacific Northwest Indian peoples often organized themselves into corporate “houses” of a few dozen to 100 or more related people who held in common the rights to particular resources. Within a house group, each member had a social rank that was determined by their relation to a founding ancestor. These complicated societies also had three main divisions: elites, commoners, and slaves or war captives.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">*By 1935 the architectural style in the region took on a look called Northwest Regional style. It was a regional variation of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Style_(architecture)" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">International style</a> . It is defined by the long rectangular shape, taking inspiration from the Native American longhouse. There is usually an extensive use of unpainted wood both inside and out, and long windows. Other features of the style include a low-pitched or flat roof with overhanging eaves, and a minimum of decoration. This style is sometimes referred to as Northwest Modern.</p>
