Paul Peter Forster (1925-2012)Market Day, n.d.Oil on boardBoard: 30” x 40”Unframed Adorned in traditional Navajo clothing, Navajo women wander through a market. Each woman has a distinct relationship to the painting’s space, color, and light. The painting achieves a kind of intimacy by positioning the viewer within the bustle of the marketplace, while also estranging the viewer by keeping the gaze of each woman averted. Forster maintained distinctly ethnographic intentions throughout his career, aiming to preserve indigenous culture in his art.Provenance:Louisville, ColoradoPrivate Collection, Utah
