Emmi Whitehorse Art

American, b. 1958

Born in 1956, Emmi Whitehorse is a Native American painter and printmaker. She was born in Crownpoint, New Mexico, and is a member of the Navajo Nation. She currently lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Whitehorse grew up on the open land northeast of Gallup, New Mexico, in a family where only the Navajo Language was spoken. In 1980, Whitehorse earned her bachelor’s degree in painting from the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque (UNM). She earned her master's degree in arts in 1982, also from UNM, majoring in printmaking and minoring in art history. Whitehorse's paintings draw upon a personal iconography, based on her reflections of her natural surroundings. She brings together Navajo’s cosmological perspectives with abstraction in her work. Whitehorse's work is deliberately apolitical. Her paintings are usually oil on paper, mounted on canvas, such as Movement, in the collection of the Honolulu Museum of Art. Her work is represented in public collections throughout North America, Europe, Japan, Uzbekistan and Morocco.

La Bouteille de Rhum (Bottle of Rum), c. 1965

By Pablo Picasso

Located in Palo Alto, CA

This work is captivating in every sense as it seeks to represent this cylindrical bottle from every angle against a two-dimensional space – as is the goal of most cubist works. It blends into a series of brown, yellow, and black tones that appear to be arranged in a chaotic geometry that continues to make perfect sense to his audience. This is a truly groundbreaking and magnificent still life work of art, whose large scale and grandeur makes this a quintessential Picasso for any art collection. This print was based off of the oil painting of the same name which is housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York), part of the Jacques and Natasha Gelman Collection. Picasso painted the original work in the French Pyrenees town of Céret during the summer of 1911, and is a perfect example of his most abstract phase of Cubism, his "high" Analytic Cubism period. Picasso included lettering in this work, one of the first examples of him doing so. The letters "LETR" possibly refer to "Le Torero," a popular bullfighting magazine at the time, of which Picasso was known to be a fan of. They could also refer to the French word for word, "lettre." Created in c. 1965, this original color lithograph is hand signed by Pablo Picasso (1881 – 1973) in pencil in the lower right margin, and H.C. 6/25 in pencil in the lower left margin, aside from the regular edition of 250. Published by Guy Spitzer, Paris after an original oil on canvas of the same title by Picasso created in 1911. Catalogue Raisonné & COA: Pablo Picasso Bottle...
