The Penfield Gallery has hundreds of Zuni fetishes carved by the best artists from Zuni Pueblo available in their Albuquerque store. A considerable number of these can be seen on this website, having the most extensive selection of Zuni fetishes available on the Internet. The gallery carries pottery made by the artists of the New Mexico Pueblos, as well as those of Hopi and the Navajo Nation. There is a large collection of miniature pottery, especially from Acoma and Santa Clara, as well as the more traditional forms. The Navajo rugs carried by the gallery are all hand-woven, many of hand-spun wool, and come mainly from the western part of the Navajo Nation. A specialty is sandpainting rugs from the Shiprock area. Navajo sandpaintings are also found here, with large and highly detailed sandpaintings being available. A large selection of Pueblo storytellers is carried, including pottery masks. Navajo folk art, including the work of Delbert Buck and Johnson Antonio, and Zuni beaded figures may also be found here.

Guide to Hopi Kachinas L to R: Owl Kachina, Sun Kachina and Butterfly Maiden Following is an explanation of Hopi Kachinas that appear on our pages, and how they fit in the Hopi life and religion. The "dolls" representing these kachinas are carvings originally used as a teaching aid, but more recently as a Hopi art form. Information for this section has been taken, by permission, from a book by our friend, Barton Wright— Hopi Kachinas, The Complete Guide to Collecting Kachina Dolls. These carved and painted figures are called a tihu by the Hopi, and a kachina doll by others. They are not dolls, playthings for the children, but effigies or small parts of the the kachinas they represent. Each one bears a portion of the individual kachina spirit's power, just as a child bears resemblance to its parents. Traditionally, Hopi have used dried cottonwood roots as the base material for their carving. After trying many substitutes, the cottonwood root remains the best material for the carvers, and is used exclusively in the kachinas we present to our customers. Formerly, appropriate feathers were often used to decorate the kachina dolls; however, since the government ban on feathers of endangered species, the carvers have adapted to using carvings to represent feathers. As a comment, this change has actually improved the dolls, from an esthetic and artistic viewpoint.

The Indian Arts and Crafts Act of 1990 The Indian Arts and Crafts Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-644) is a truth-in-advertising law that prohibits misrepresentation in marketing of Indian arts and crafts products within the United States. It is illegal to offer or display for sale, or sell any art or craft product in a manner that falsely suggests it is Indian produced, an Indian product, or the product of a particular Indian or Indian tribe or Indian arts and crafts organization, resident within the United States. For a first time violation of the Act, an individual can face civil or criminal penalties up to a $250,000 fine or a 5-year prison term, or both. If a business violates the Act, it can face civil penalties or can be prosecuted and fined up to $1,000,000. Under the Act, an Indian is defined as a member of any federally or State recognized Indian tribe, or an individual certified as an Indian artisan by an Indian tribe. The law covers all Indian and Indian-style traditional and contemporary arts and crafts produced after 1935. The Act broadly applies to the marketing of arts and crafts by any person in the United States. Some traditional items frequently copied by non-Indians include Indian-style jewelry, pottery, baskets, carved stone fetishes, woven rugs, kachina dolls, and clothing. All products must be marketed truthfully regarding the Indian heritage and tribal affiliation of the producers, so as not to mislead the consumer. It is illegal to market an art or craft item using the name of a tribe if a member, or certified Indian artisan, of that tribe did not actually create the art or craft item.

(Due to bandwidth constraints on this site, full texts of some of our essays are being provided on alternate sites. If above site is unavailable, try this link Abstract Academic appraisals of Indian art and architecture in the Western world have often suffered from colonially inspired biases and prejudices that have either attempted to discount the secular character of Indian art, or failed to fully appreciate it's most endearing qualities. Although the subcontinent has enjoyed a virtually uninterrupted history of developments in the realm of art and architecture, India has been either studiously ignored in compilations of "world" art - or it has been represented by a very small and limited number of examples. Although, much of India's oldest secular architecture has not survived because it was built from wood, anecdotal accounts of Greek and Chinese travelers, surviving literature and court histories, ancient sculptural finds and cave paintings - all indicate that India was not lacking in secular buildings, many of which were embellished with architectural ornamentation and painted in naturally available colours. Of particular note are the public gateways known as

Indian Art Indian art is also an art of social, political and religious influences. It changed and evolved with the evolution of a civilization which was full of remarkable innovations in all areas of artistic expression. The cultural policy of the Government of India has three major objectives - preserving the cultural heritage of India, inculcating Indian art consciousness amongst Indians and promoting high standards in creative and performing arts. Western scholars have often had difficulty understanding the complex cultural and philosophical systems that gave birth to Indian art tradition. The story of Indian art is also the story of the oldest and the most resilient culture on earth. It is seen as an amalgamation of indigenous and outside influences, yet having a unique character and distinctiveness of its own. Indian art features spirals and curvaceous lines, vines and tendrils, round-figured goddesses, circular amulets, colored gemstones, arches and domes, haloed deities, crescent moons, and the globe of the sun. Indian sculptures and paintings depict the diversity, colour and spontaneity of this country and are representations of the all-encompassing nature of Indian culture.

East Asian Art Costume and Textiles European Decorative Arts European Painting and Sculpture ... Fairmount Park Houses After the arrival of the distinguished Langdon Warner as director of the Museum in 1917, the Division of Eastern Art was established, and Horace H.F. Jayne became curator of Oriental Art in 1923. Under the directorship of Fiske Kimball, W. Norman Brown, professor of Sanskrit at the University of Pennsylvania, was named curator of Indian art in 1931. The expansion of the department was augmented through a 1931 expedition to Persia, jointly sponsored by the University of Pennsylvania Museum, where Jayne simultaneously served as director. The Austrian-born scholar Stella Kramrisch, who had been the first Western art historian to teach at the University of Calcutta, succeeded Brown as curator of Indian art in 1954, and remained curator emeritus from 1972 until her death in 1993. Under her aegis, the Museum's major holdings of Indian sculpture and painting were acquired. In 1959 came the first of seventy-one gifts from Natacha Rambova, who was the major benefactor of the Himalayan collections. Dr. Kramrisch's bequest of her own collection in 1993 brought to the Museum distinguished examples of Indian sculpture, painting, and folk art in many mediums, reflecting the full range of her scholarly interests.
