Bob Kapoun: Owner, The Rainbow Man - Epi. 76, with Host Dr. Mark Sublette

Bob Kapoun, the owner of the historic Shop of the Rainbow Man in
Santa Fe New Mexico, discusses the factors that led him down the
path of dealing in Native American art. His interest in taking
pictures during the Vietnam war led to an appreciation of
photography and cinema, ultimately leading to a degree from
Southern Illinois University and connecting Bob to the world of
renowned photographer Edward S. Curtis.

Bob details his obsession with the culture and history of the
Native Americans of the Southwest, the foundation lends to the
authoring of books on Trade blankets and Cochiti pottery. Bob's
reputation for contemporary Native art and trade blankets makes
for a fascinating interview on this week's episode of the Art
Dealer Diaries.
