SF Indian Market 2

This contemporary native american art is the work of Marcus Cadman. He is of Navajo and Kickapoo heritage and lives in Shiprock, NM. Here is a of one of my favorite paintings(the large one). To see more visit his website here. For all of you, I hope Monday is good one and very quick.

I've always had trouble sorting out the genuine from the "Hollywood" when it comes to native American culture. I was surprised recently while touring the Anthropology Museum here in Cambridge UK to see an elaborate beaded buckskin suit which looked like something out of a movie but was obviously genuine. These paintings are very attractive and colourful - I really should find out more.

I enjoy his style of placing the main subject on a background of quilt or blanket like setting.

Sharon said...

That is a very nice painting. I really enjoy some of the non-traditional art at these festivities.

He's chosen an interesting background for his painting Randy. My Monday is almost over and yes it certainly did zip by.

I like that name Shiprock, NM.

The background has a futuristic matrix look to it in complete contrast to the person pictured. I really like that, but I like the strong head shot to the right also.
Yes, Monday fly by!

Ohmygosh I am so far behind on my blog reading! I can see why you like this, Randy. It's beautiful. I love all the colors used here.

This is interesting, Randy. I always thought that Indian Market was restricted to traditional crafts. This artist certainly has built on the traditional art with a strongly contemporary flair.

I'm more of a traditionalist when it comes to Native American art -- but these are really quite beautiful. :)
