Happy Holidays!
I will be away from the gallery from December 19th to the New Year. The gallery will not be open for visits and I will not be shipping after the 18th. But the website will be active and I will respond to email requests as quickly as possible. I wish you all a peaceful holiday season and a saner and more just New Year.

Koupe Fè: The Steel Drum Sculpture of Gabriel Bien-Aimé

November 18, 2021 to March 26, 2022

Gabriel Bien-Aimé was born in 1951 in the village of Croix des Bouquets, now known as the “cradle of 20th century Haitian metal sculpture”. Croix des Bouquets nurtured such great Haitian sculptors as the late Georges Liautaud and Murat Brierre, the brothers Louisjuste, and Serge Jolimeau.

Mahalaxmi: A Mithila Artist of India

May 2, 2021 to June 30, 2021

We watch in horror as yet another wave of the Covid19 pandemic sweeps through India with unprecedented death and devastation. It is a time to offer both empathy and any assistance that we can. Indigo Arts features a young artist of India who carries on with her work despite the catastrophe around her.

Bon Coiffure: African Hair Signs

October 6, 2020

"Bon Coiffure", Coiffure Moderne", "Super Tresse", "Rasta Do", "Ladie's Choice", "Ici Bonne Tresse", "Mervilleuse Tresse Beninoise", "God's Time", - the names grabbed me as much as the images on the signs which announced the trade of itinerant barbers, braiders and hairdressers in Africa. Over many years of observing, traveling or living in Africa, I regret that I didn't begin to collect the signs until the founding of Indigo in 1986. But one of our first shows was a small collection of hair signs from West Africa, mostly from the 70's and 80's.
