About the Item
'The Turquoise Suite' is a portfolio of three original color lithograph by the renown printmaker R.C. Gorman. From Arizona, the artist's later works focus almost entirely on the female figure and take Native American and Southwestern imagery as a source of inspiration. In each print, a single woman sits in a colorful yet undefined space that suggests the sandy desert and blue skies of the American Southwest. Each of the prints bears the name of a different turquoise mine, including 'Morenci', 'Blue Gem' and 'Cerillos', and each of the three women wears a beautifully rendered piece of turquoise jewelry. This portfolio likewise includes the original portfolio cover, which is constructed of turquoise-blue silk-lined paper and repeats the image of 'Cerillos' tipped to its exterior.

R.C. Gorman is a Navajo artist born in Arizona in 1931. Of his upbringing he says: "I was born near Canyon de Chelly in Arizona and spent my early years living close to nature and Navajo tradition. My family was rich in artistic talent and creative spirit, but not in material possessions. I have been fortunate to live and work in the beautiful Taos Valley, an environment also rich in artistry and tradition." He received education from Arizona State College and Mexico City College.
Gorman draws inspiration from Native American and Southwestern imagery for his work. "Gladia" features this influence and creates a quiet scene of reflection between woman and nature.

Rudolph Carl Gorman
Rudolph Carl Gorman was an American artist, born on July 26, 1931, in Canyon de Chelly, Arizona. He was raised in a traditional hogan, on the Navajo Reservation. He became one of the Southwest USA's most famous and celebrated Native American artists. His signature works were Navajo women in a variety of poses. Referred to as the Picasso of American Indian Artists by The New York Times, his paintings are primarily of Native American women and characterized by fluid forms and vibrant colors, though he also worked in sculpture, ceramics and stone lithography. In 1973, the Metropolitan Museum of Art included several Rudolph’s works in an exhibition on Native American art and in 1986, Harvard University honored him for his notable contributions to American art and Native American culture. His admirers included Andy Warhol, who painted him on several occasions and who was among the many celebrities, who collected his art. He was also the author of a series of popular cookbooks. Gorman died on November 3, 2005, in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
