The Art of Timeless Beauty, the Navajo Child’s Blanket

No form of Navajo weaving garners more interest than the Navajo Child’s Blanket. Handspun yarns dyed with indigo and cochineal along with raveled Bayeta make these 19th century blankets some of the most important examples of classic Navajo weaving extant. The 2024 Whitehawk Antique Indian & Ethnographic Art Show presents ‘The Art of Timless Beauty,’ 25 examples of the best of the best Navajo Child’s Blankets.

This collection has been years in the making. Robert L Parsons of the Robert L Parsons Fine Art Gallery in Taos, New Mexico, along with gallery director Ashley Rolshoven, set a high bar with this collection by talking to collectors and experts from across the country.

“I’ve honestly never seen a collection of Navajo Child’s Blankets that rivels this one,” Kim Martindale, Whitehawk Show owner, said. “We’re all very lucky to have Mr. Parsons create this level of event. The art and craft of these pieces demonstrates the Navajo’s preeminence as American artists.”

The Art of Timeless Beauty, the Navajo Child’s Blanket opens Friday, August 9th during Whitehawk’s Benefit Preview and will run through August 12th at the Santa Fe Community Convention Center.

View examples of these weavings at whitehawkshows.com or contact Robert Parsons directly at 575-751-0159.

Miniature Native American Baskets –A Lifetime Collection

The Show is proud to announce a special exhibition of

Curated by basket expert Jan Duggan.

Baskets on display are as delicate as 16 stitches to the inch. “It’s almost like a tapestry.” Duggan says.” The Pima weavings can feature the pictorial forms of human beings or animals like butterflies, snakes, and Gila monsters. “I’ve always loved their baskets because the designs were so creative,” she remarked. Duggan’s display at the Whitehawk Show traces Pima weaving from before the turn of the 20th century to modern examples. Pima weavers, typically women, continue to keep the artform alive and are committed to traditional techniques and materials. They still gather willow from the riverbanks and strip them down into small strands to weave baskets, hats, purses, and more.

The collection is the result of a 40+ year study of the Arizona tribe’s basketry and is considered one of the finest and most comprehensive examples of Native American basket weaving in the world. Following its exhibit at the Whitehawk Show, the baskets will go to a major museum.

Duggan will be at the event to answer questions.

Featured Artist Aboubakar Fofana

Born in Mali and raised in France, Aboubakar Fofana is a multidisciplinary artist and designer whose working mediums include calligraphy, textiles, and natural dyes. He is known for his work in reinvigorating and redefining West African indigo dyeing techniques, and much of his focus is devoted to the preservation and reinterpretation of traditional West African textile and natural dyeing techniques and materials.

Fofana’s work stems from a profound spiritual belief that nature is divine and that through respecting this divinity we can understand the immense and sacred universe. His raw materials come from the natural world, and his working practice revolves around the cycles of nature, the themes of birth, decay and change, and the impermanence of these materials. He sees the conception and realisation of this work as a form of spiritual practice, which is shared with his audience.

Fofana is currently deeply involved in creating a farm in conjunction with the local community in the district of Siby, Mali, in which the two types of indigenous West African indigo will be the centrepiece for a permaculture model based around local food, medicine, and dye plants. This project hopes to contribute to the rebirth of fermented indigo dyeing in Mali and beyond, and represents his life’s greatest project to date.

John H. Morris, Jr

May 16, 1939 – November 10, 2023

With decades of experience producing historically significant shows in the art and music realm, John Morris and Kim Martindale have created a unique collection of art shows curated to create a unique art experience.

John H. Morris, Jr., of Santa Fe, NM, and Malibu, CA, the creator and first managing director of the Fillmore East rock & roll theater in New York City, and the production manager of the original Woodstock Festival of Art and Music, died at his Santa Fe, New Mexico home Friday, November 10, 2023, after a long illness. Born in Gramercy Park, New York City, in 1939, John studied theater at Carnegie Tech. At the age of 25, after a brief career as a lighting designer off-Broadway, on London’s West End, and at Peter Cook’s The Stroller’s Club in New York City, John launched his career as a theatrical producer. He acquired the rights to Peter Cook’s satirical British productions, The Establishment and Cambridge Circus, and toured the shows across the U.S. with casts including John Cleese, Cass Elliot, Peter Bellwood, and Joe Maher.

In July of 1967, during “the summer of love,” John produced his first rock and roll concert, a free show in Toronto, Canada’s City Hall square, featuring Jefferson Airplane, which drew a crowd of more than 50,000, second in size only to The Beatles’ Shea Stadium concert the year before. The show was to promote a weeklong Jefferson Airplane and Grateful Dead rock & roll residency at Toronto’s O’Keefe Theatre produced by John and fellow Carnegie Tech alum Joshua White, for West Coast rock & roll empresario, Bill Graham.

In Toronto, John Morris and Joshua White introduced elaborate theatrical staging to the world of rock and roll, including the first psychedelic light show projected from behind a giant screen, as a backdrop for the band. Their theatrical innovations in concert production and lighting have evolved into today’s elaborate staging of popular music shows and festivals.

John produced Jefferson Airplane’s first East Coast tour before rejoining Mr. White in December of 1967, to produce a weeklong Festival of Light and Music at the Minneola Theater on Long Island, featuring shows by Frank Zappa, Vanilla Fudge, Tim Buckley, and Ravi Shankar, that formally launched the psychedelic Joshua Light Show.

John then produced rock concerts at the Anderson Theatre on New York’s Second Avenue for Crawdaddy magazine, where, with Janis Joplin’s New York City premier, he convinced Bill Graham to open an East Coast theatrical version of his already legendary San Francisco’s psychedelic rock ballroom, The Fillmore.

Eighteen days after Graham and partners, including Bob Dylan’s agent Albert Grossman, acquired Lowes’ lower east side Village Theatre, John, and a crew including theatre tech students from NYU, led by Professor Chris Langhart, opened The Fillmore East with Janis Joplin, Albert King, Tim Buckley, and the Joshua Light Show on the marquee.

After co-producing the first European concert tours for Jefferson Airplane and The Doors, with Doors manager Bill Siddons, John was invited to join the production team for the Woodstock Festival of Art and Music. John booked most of the bands which would appear at Woodstock, assuring that the relatively unknown Santana, Country Joe and the Fish, and Joe Cocker were on the bill. During the iconic, but weather-plagued three-day festival, where a crowd anticipated to be 100,000, grew to an estimated half a million, Morris was the principal Master of Ceremonies and is recognized as “the voice” of Woodstock, having made the now famous announcement, “It’s a free concert from now on.”

After moving to England in 1970 to organize the European Producers Association and promote touring U.S. rock bands, John launched London’s first rock & roll theatre, The Rainbow, in Finsbury Park, with The Who as its opening act, November 4, 1971.

John continued to produce rock and roll events throughout Europe and the United States until 1990, including 19 Grateful Dead concerts; the premier European tour of Paul and Linda McCartney’s post-Beatles band, Wings; and tours with Ike and Tina Turner, Chuck Berry, New Riders of the Purple Sage, Isaac Hayes, and Santana.

His production companies, Jumpin’ Jack Productions in the UK and Europe, and Cadogan Productions in the U.S., mounted concerts for artists including Stevie Ray Vaugh, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Rudolfo Nureyev, and Frank Zappa. He also acted as manager for Otis Redding, the Danish band Gasolin’, and Japanese jazz musician, Stomu Yamashta, producing Yamashta’s third album, Go Too for Arista Records.

A collector and student of Native American art and artifacts since boyhood, John opened a Native American Antiques store in London in 1973, The Bear Creek Trading Company. In 1995, he joined with Kim R. Martindale to produce antique, fine art, and design shows throughout the U.S. For the next 28 years, their Antiquities Shows, Native American Art Shows, and Objects of Art Shows were produced in Santa Fe, NM; New York City; Los Angeles; San Francisco; Seattle; Denver; Scottsdale; and Napa, CA.

The son of John H. Morris and Louise Morris, John’s Grammercy Park childhood in New York City, was interrupted when his father returned to active duty in the U.S. Army during the Korean War, and he attended 6th grade in three states, before the family settled in Pleasantville, NY, following the war.

Morris is survived by his partner of 33 years, Luzann Fernandez of Santa Fe, NM and Malibu, CA; brother, Mark Morris of Sneden’s Landing, NY; nephew Eric Morris of Los Angeles, CA; and nieces, Nicole Merrick and her husband Keil; Marie Fernandez and her husband Guillermo Serrano Terren; Katie Fernandez; grandnephews Oliver and Charlie Merrick; and grandniece Kate Merrick.

John H. Morris, Jr. is also survived by a world of loyal and loving friends drawn to him over a lifetime on concert stages, sailing adventures, photographic safaris, dinner tables, art show floors, and pickup football games.
