I will be working out of state this week, and so will not be shipping or open for vistors at the gallery. The Indigo Arts website will be active as always, I will respond to emails, and I will be able to ship orders after July 13th..
Unusual jacket decorated by sequins and beads to depict the Vodou "lwa" Bossou, in the form of a bull's head. Attributed to Antoine Oleyant, the most original, celebrated and sought-after artist of the era. Style of bull's head is characteristic of Oleyant's style as are the "pwen" star figures on the front and back of the jacket.
