he
Penfield Gallery has hundreds of Zuni
fetishes carved by the best artists from
Zuni Pueblo available in their Albuquerque store. A considerable number of these can be seen on this website, the most extensive selection of Zuni
fetishes available on web. The gallery carries pottery made by the artists of the New
Mexico Pueblos, as well as those of Hopi
and the Navajo Nation. There is a large collection of miniature pottery, especially from Acoma
and Santa Clara Pueblos, as well as the more traditional forms.
The Navajo rugs carried by the gallery are all hand-woven, many of hand-spun
wool, and come mainly from the western part of the Navajo
Nation. A specialty
is sandpainting rugs from the Shiprock area. Navajo
sandpaintings are also found
here, with large and highly detailed sandpaintings being available. A large selection
of Pueblo storytellers is carried, including pottery
masks. Navajo folk art and
Zuni beaded figures are also available. We have recently added the gourd
art of two renowned non-Native artists, Robert
Rivera and Tony McGregor.
