Painter and sculptor Dan Namingha is one of the preeminent Native American contemporary artists practicing today. A reverent spirit for nature and the land stands at the heart of his creations, as he celebrates the life and traditions of his Hopi heritage. The artistic influences on his dynamic minimalist works include Jackson Pollock, Michelangelo and Norman Rockwell.
Namingha was born in Keams Canyon, Arizona. He is a member of the Hopi-Tewa tribe, an Indigenous nation known for vivid art, especially pottery. He comes from a long line of artists and potters. His mother is Dextra Quotskuyva, one of the most influential potters of the past century. His great-great-grandmother is Nampeyo, who is considered the godmother of Hopi pottery.
Namingha studied at the Institute of American Indian Arts in Sante Fe, which later awarded him an honorary doctorate in 2009. He also attended the American Academy of Art in Chicago.
In 1992, he was the subject of the PBS documentary Dan Namingha: Seeking Center in Two Worlds. He has received many prestigious awards, including the Award and Tribute from the Harvard Foundation at the Fogg Art Museum of Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1994, the Visionary Award from the Institute of American Indian Arts in Sante Fe in 1997 and the Abbott Sekaquaptewa Award from the Futures for Children in 2008.
Major collections and museums holding his work include Booth Western Art Museum in Atlanta, the Náprstek Museum in Prague, the Royal Collection in London and the NASA Art Collection in Washington, DC.
Namingha lives and works in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he continues to create art that inspires viewers, collectors and critics.

"Union Jack (Blue and Gold)" Pop British Flag 23k Gold Leaf/Oil Contemporary
By Charlotte Andry Gibbs
Located in Wellesley, MA
Charlotte Gibbs’ "flag" and "star" paintings often reference the artist's interest in Pop art and sometimes incorporate 23 karat gold leaf in addition to oil paint, but not always. With its depiction of a graphically idealized British flag. "Union Jack (Blue and Gold) " is at once lovely and bold. Part of a series of 'flag' paintings (American, British, French, Japanese, Scottish) these elegant works of rich color are sophisticated examples of Gibbs' ability to both pay homage in a straightforward way to these international cultural symbols, as well as to the broader tradition of pure geometric abstraction in painting. They can be perceived on both levels. The artist's simple distressed slightly distressed white wood double lattice frame is the perfect complement. Also available are paintings of the 'Union Jack" in white and 23 karat gold leaf and bright, 'day-glo' like colors of blue, chartreuse and red, and red and gold. See also: "Sgt. Pepper Jack," "Union Jack Red and Gold," "Union Jack Navy and Gold," and "Union Jack White and Gold"), the Scottish flag...
