Mark Bahti,
author, cultural historian and second- generation Native
American arts dealer, (See http://bahti.com/)
for an insightful exploration of New
Mexico's Rio Grande Pueblos and Georgia O'Keeffe Country. Mark
Bahti's grandfather, Arthur N. Pack, conservationist and publisher
of Nature magazine developed and operated Ghost Ranch as a
dude ranch in the 1930’s and ‘40’s when O’Keeffe arrived
|
and
began
to
make New Mexico her home (and Ghost Ranch was host to some fairly
interesting if taciturn guests who turned out to be the scientists
from the then-super-secret Los Alamos Lab). In 1952 Arthur Pack
moved on to co-found the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum in Tucson,
Arizona. Mark's enthusiasm for Indian arts, history and culture is
deep and contagious! |
| Consider
New Mexico—a land of enduring cultures and cultures of enduring
art.
From the delicately rendered pre-historic Clovis point to
meticulously crafted jewelry of today—each culture that has
touched this land has contributed its own distinctive traditional
arts that complement the beauty that is New Mexico.
This
is our most comprehensive and wonderful Indian Country program.
Not often available (not since 2002), it’s full of new features
for 2010!
Join
author, Indian trader Mark Bahti, along with New Mexico Pueblo
Indians, artists and historians, to savor the arts and culture of
one of America’s most amazingly beautiful places! |
