February Schedule

I will be traveling out of state for the last week of February and, due to quarantine rules, will not be able to welcome visitors to the gallery for the week before and after (February 15th to March 6th).  But the Indigo Arts website will be active as always, and I will be able to ship orders out except during the week from February 21st to March 1st.

Oveer the last year the Indigo Arts website has remained active despite the widespread shutdowns due to the COVID-19 virus.   Under current rules I have been able to resume operations but must limit visitors to the gallery, by appointment only.   I am able to pack and ship most orders within a few days.   Shipping times have increased during this period.  USPS has been so slow that we recommend avoiding it entirely, at least for the present.  Parcels sent by 2 or 3 Day Priority Mail may take 2 to 4 weeks to arrive.
Please stay safe in these difficult times.  
We wish you all a healthier, saner and more civil 2021.

Sequins and beads on fabric, with cotton fill for relief areas, stretched on frame (24 1/4" x 17 1/2”), c.2000.  
Ex collection of Nancy Josephson.
This flag is published in the book Spirits in Sequins by Nancy Josephson, p. 126.  "The chromolithograph of Saint Gerard is used to depict the Vodou spirit Baron, one of the Guede family.  The small cuts made into the back of the doubled fabric get cotton stuffing, which makes the top of the flag not only 3-D but also very heavy."

Country: 

Haiti

Indigo Arts Gallery celebrates the artistic genius and the indomitable spirit of the Haitian people, with a continually changing collection of Haitian paintings, masks, vodou flags, and sculpture.

We fell in love with the art and people of Haiti on our first visit thirty-one years ago. While our focus is on artists actively working today, we also have a stock of paintings from the 50's through the 90's that we have collected in Haiti over the years or acquired from estates and collections.
