The Folk Art Fiesta!

A Folk Art Fiesta!

Set inside a beautiful two-bedroom New Mexican-style casa, this estate is an exceptional example of how folk art can become part of a home rather than simply a collection displayed within it. Every room is filled with color, texture, handmade objects, and unexpected details, with pieces ranging from New Mexican santos and Native American art to Mexican folk art, painted furniture, sculpture, jewelry, textiles, and decorative arts.

Collectors will find works by Frank L. Garcia, Lorrie Garcia, Alfred Benally, Carlos Mérida, Sticks, David Marsh and many others, alongside hundreds of Zuni fetishes, Diné weavings, micaceous pottery, Tonalá ceramics, Mexican tinwork, folk-art furniture and an extensive mix of one-of-a-kind objects.

This is the kind of sale that rewards taking your time. There is something to discover in nearly every corner, from significant named artists to handmade pieces that may be completely unfamiliar until you find them.
