Description:
|
|
John Sloan's Ancestral Spirits captures his responses to the activity of a Pueblo dance. In this painting, ritual clowns seem to spill down the stairway leading from the rooftop entrance of a kiva, a Pueblo ceremonial chamber. Sloan blends these figures into a single mass of abstracted motion. Evocative, highly personal, and emotive responses to the New Mexico's cultural landscape quickly dominated the paintings by the Santa Fe modernists during the post-World War I period.
