Native Americans
The Tribes of McGary Bronzes
The diversity of Native American tribes across North America are as unique as the land itself. Just as with societies of today, many Native American nations formed alliances with similar tribes to help overcome their enemies or for reasons of self-defense, trade and friendship.
The tribes that Dave McGary focuses on in his bronze sculptures tell their epic stories of life in a time much misunderstood by today's society. A glimpse into the history of the individual Native American tribes depicted in Dave's work is revealed in the links below:
