Fresh from a<br>local estate along with a painting on canvas by the same artist. Guaranteed<br>authentic. This had to be extremely labor intensive and would stand out<br>anywhere, he did do much of this type of work. Malcolm Attended University of<br>Texas here in Austin and Studied art. This piece came from Austin, I believe it<br>is one of his earlier pieces when he was still trying to figure out what<br>direction to take his career, obciously it is super cool.<br><br>The comes out and will be removed for shipping. The paint is very sturdy, I<br>believe it is a special metal paint similar to auto paint but it will be well<br>wrapped to prevent abrasion or wear during transportation.<br><br>Taos resident, Malcolm Furlow, an award winning painter, hasn't always been an<br>artist. As a young man he received a track scholarship to the University of<br>Texas and decided to choose art as his major. Unfortunately, his art professor<br>disapproved of his style of painting and a disappointed Furlow left college to<br>become a rock and roll musician. For 18 years he played the sax, bass and<br>sometimes the guitar, playing back up for such notable groups and soloists as<br>the Beach Boys and Lou Rawls.<br><br>Leaving his music career behind, Furlow used his artistic talent to construct<br>models for movie sets at Walt Disney Studios. He also delved into photography,<br>writing a book for Kodak, called Close-Up Photography, that explained the best<br>way to photograph miniatures, especially models. But, in 1987 after hearing<br>scholar Joseph Campbell's words "Follow Your Bliss," Furlow decided to go back<br>to his first love, painting.<br><br>Furlow began drawing American Indians at the age of six, when his father had<br>Malcolm accompany him on business trips throughout New Mexico. Beginning with<br>watercolors, Furlow realized the medium was ill suited for large canvases and<br>switched to brightly colored acrylic images of Native Americans. In all his<br>works, Furlow strives to show his deep admiration and respect for his Choctaw<br>heritage.<br><br>About his subject matter and painting style, Furlow has said, "I knew I wanted<br>to say it with color because that's the emotion of it. I've got to make the<br>viewer feel what I feel . All I'm trying to do is paint them as they are - paint<br>their culture, their dignity and their stature . I didn't want to do portraits<br>of Indians, I wanted to say something about the human condition." He paints two<br>worlds: the Native American and their place in the Anglo World. In addition,<br>Furlow rides and decorates motorcycles.<br><br>A recently filmed documentary entitled the "Life and Art of Malcolm Furlow,<br>"refers to him as a "Renaissance Man": the quintessential cowboy, musician, and<br>intellectual artist. He is an award-winning painter, whose accolades include the<br>Silver award from the Sorbonne, and the highly coveted Gold Award from the<br>world-renown Luxembourg Museum, Paris. PBS featured him in a documentary called<br>"The Life and Art of Malcolm Furlow", he was also awarded the Gold Award from<br>the Luxembourg in Paris (an honor shared with Pablo Picasso)<br><br>As of spring 2007, Furlow has "sold-out" over fifty solo shows. Malcolm Furlow's<br>paintings command principal placement in exhibitions, philanthropist campaigns,<br>and private collections around the world, including the U.S. Embassies of<br>Morocco, Belgium and Beijing; the White House; CEO Magazine; The Smithsonian;<br>Mobil Oil; Arnold Schwarzenegger; Samuel Goldwyn; Richard Pryor; Presidents<br>George H.W.

He has written several<br>"How-To" books for Kodak photograghy, worked as a photogragher for Italian Vouge<br>. Malcolm has also written several "How-To" books for Model Railroading.

Legoria Tafoya (1911-1984) Santa Clara Blackware jar
Legoria Tafoya (1911-1984) Santa Clara Blackware jar signed by both her and her daughter Celes. 5" wide x 4 3/8" tall with no damage or significant wear.Legoria Tafoya (1911-1984) worked with Celes (her daughter) for many years. Legoria was a sister of Pablita Velarde and therefore was almost solely represented in the sale of her pottery by The Enchanted Mesa Indian Arts, located on Route 66 at the east end of Albuquerque, for most of her career."Legoria was one of the first Santa Clara Pueblo artists to have a brochure with her personal biographical statement. The document states in part: 'Along with many other children of the Rio Grande Pueblos, Legoria attended St. Catherine's Indian School at Santa Fe...Married quite young to Pasqual Tafoya, Legoria was soon very busy with a family of her own. Marriage, children, and the resultant responsibilities prompted Legoria to become interested in making pottery to sell to supplement the family income.'In 1930 Legoria learned the art of pottery making from her grandmother...Legoria's first work consisted mostly of clever, small animal figurines, which she molded with her fingers. Lions, bears, birds and turtles are design forms which are much in evidence in Tewa mythology. These little -like ceramics proved to be extremely popular, and Legoria sold many of them to the tourists who came to the Pueblo...Legoria decided to exhibit her work. At her first exhibit in 1940 she won a blue ribbon for a plain polished bowl. This was at the Indian Market at Santa Fe...Legoria has received many awards for pottery making...'" (Schaaf). tw108

Tomasita Montoya(1899-1978) San Juan Pueblo pottery vessel
Tomasita Montoya(1899-1978) San Juan Pueblo pottery vessel 5" wide x 3.75" tall, no damage or restorations, very minor exterior wear. Comes with tag from when it was last purchased. Tomasita Montoya was one of the original 7 San Juan potters who revived the art form in the 1930’s. Her daughters Rosita de Herrera and Dominguita Herrera learned to make pottery from her. The Pueblo had a wonderful history of pottery making, but by about 1890 there were no potters left. In 1930 Regina Cata organized a pottery study group at San Juan Pueblo with the intent of revitalizing pottery production. The group studied ancient potsherds of wares made at San Juan in earlier times and selected Potsuwi‘i Incised Ware (1450-1500) as a basis for a contemporary pottery type. By the late 1930s, further development resulted in deeply-carved polychrome wares, and incised wares, both of which are still being produced today. Tomasita was especially known for her incised red ware jars, bowls, and vases. The decoration on these vessels was primarily fine line geometric hatching. On occasion she utilized micaceous clay, adding some texture and sparkle to the geometric elements. Tomasita also made deeply carved polychrome pieces which included designs of clouds, kiva steps, and plants.

Josephine Cordova Vigil (1927-2001) was from Taos Pueblo and she moved to San Ildefonso when she married Albert.

Maria Martinez taught Josephine how to coil-shape the clay and Clara Montoya taught her how to polish the pottery before it was designed or painted. They began making pottery in 1945. Josephine and Albert used the traditional methods of hand-coil, polishing, and traditionally open fired pottery.
