About the Artist:
Rudolph Carl Gorman, also known as R.C. Gorman, (1931–2005) was a celebrated Native American artist from the Navajo Nation, dubbed "the Picasso of American Indian art" by the New York Times. His vibrant paintings primarily featured Native American women, known for their fluid forms and vivid colors. Beyond painting, he ventured into sculpture, ceramics, and lithography. Gorman's culinary passion led him to write four cookbooks, Nudes and Food, accompanied by his own illustrations. Raised amidst Navajo traditions in Arizona, he found inspiration in the natural beauty of Taos, New Mexico, where his artistic vision flourished. Gorman's timeless portrayals of Indigenous women, influenced by his admiration for strong female figures, earned him acclaim and comparisons to Picasso. His works adorn prestigious museums and private collections worldwide, cementing his legacy in American art history.
