Item description from seller

Palm Springs Desert Museum [Published Date: 1991]. Catalog for exhibition held at the Sept 17- Nov. 10, 1991 at the Palm Springs Desert Museum. Softcover, 30 pp. In acceptable condition. White paper covers have moderate to heavy staining from what looks like water color paints and light bumping and creasing to edges and corners. Binding tight. Pages are double-sided ie, printed on one side and attached at the fore-edge so that it takes twice as many pages to print the book. Not certain if this is a printers error but all pages are present. A few pages have moderate paint-stains along edges as well. NOT Ex-Library. NO remainder marks. A solid reading copy only.

Integral to an understanding of his art and its spiritual quality is the knowledge of his ancestry. His work is the product of an artistic Native American heritage in which the creation of art is a high ideal in a centuries-old Hopi-Tewa tradition. Namingha belongs to the fifth generation of a talented family of artists and potters. Beginning with his great-great-grandmother Nampeyo, down through great-grand mother Annie Nampeyo, grandmother Rachel Nampeyo and his mother Dextra Nampeyo, all achieved recognition for making fine traditional pottery. Camille Nampeyo, Dan Namingha's sister, is a talented potter who joins her brother in the family legacy along with their father and uncles, all of whom carve and paint kachinadolls. This inheritance has provided Dan Naminghawith a solid foundation for pursuing his own creative soul.…
