Memory and Markets: Pueblo Painting in the Early 20th Century

In the early 20th century, a new movement of Native American painting emerged in the Pueblo communities of the Southwestern United States. The formation of the Studio at the Santa Fe Indian School formalized the training of generations of Native painters. The resulting works were dynamic, colorful, and decidedly modern. “Memory and Markets” presents nearly 20 paintings plus a small selection of pottery exemplifying early painting traditions.
