Provenance: Legacy Gallery, Scottsdale, AZ Scottsdale Art Auction, Scottsdale, AZ, 2016 Private collection, Wisconsin Ray Swanson didn’t look back into time for his Native American subjects. Instead, he focused on present-day communities in Northern Arizona and Northern New Mexico. The resulting body of work depicted people not as they once were, but as they were when Swanson visited them. For many viewers, it was a refreshing twist on Western art. Key subjects within his work were children and small animals, but also fellow artists, as seen here in Hopi Kachina Maker. The work was part of a series of Native American artists that included weavers, potters, jewelers and Hopi carvers.
