I saw this painting at the Scottsdale Ferrari Art Fair a few weeks ago. The artist is Dennis Numkena (1941-2010), a Native American architect and artist. As a child, Numkena attended the Phoenix Indian School and graduated from Scottsdale High School. After serving in the US Military, he lived for a short period in New York City. A visit to the Guggenheim Museum inspired him to become an architect. He graduated from Arizona State University and formed the first Native owned architecture firm. His artworks can be found in collections all over the world.
This painting caught my eye because to me it looked both futuristic and historic at the same time. It looks very much like a Hopi pueblo site while also looking like it could be a scene from a Start Wars movie.
The painting was for sale from Savvy Collectors for $30,000.00
