Santa Fe Art Auction will hold its Prints + Works on Paper sale this March, featuring an array of two-dimensional historic and contemporary works of art. “[This sale] is our wonderfully broad overview of works on paper, prints and multiples, both American and international, historic and contemporary,” says Gillian Blitch, Santa Fe Art Auction president, “From Gene Kloss, to Howard Cook and Will Shuster as well as Native American artists including Veloy Vigil, Woody Crumbo and R.C. Gorman.”

Especially exciting, she says, is a group of early Gallup posters. “We will have a marvelous group of ceremonial posters from the WPA art program of the early Inter-tribal Indian Ceremonial posters. Most of them were illustrated by Louie Ewing…It will be exciting when it all comes together.”
