Description: Offered by Antique American Indian Art, LLC---AAIA--- Northwest Coast Wall Board, Marvin Baker, late 20th century Northwest Coast Wall Board, Marvin Baker, late 20th century 14.25" h. Marvin Dana Baker was born in 1951 in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. He is a member of the Coast Salish Nation, Squamish Tribe, Capilano Reservation. The Nation is located in the southern region of the province. Marvin’s interest in carving began at age of 12 and has been creating West Coast Native art since then. He credits his father Benjamin Dick and his prominent artist brother Beau Dick for influencing him to begin carving. Marvin is an adaptable artist who primarily uses the burl section of yellow and red cedar as his medium for carving. He produces two and three-dimensional pieces and especially enjoys carving large full-scale pieces. In the many years Marvin has been carving for several exhibitions he has been invited to and has assisted in numerous monumental commissions. Marvin said one of his most memorable events was being invited to carve fifteen “Sea Monster Masks” for the APEC Summit Meeting held in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada in 1997. Each mask was a gift to the respective heads of state of the participating nations. Marvin’s work can be found in galleries, corporate buildings and private collections throughout Canada and overseas. His future plans include taking a course in Silver-Jewellery making at the Vancouver Vocational Institute. 5182-26Welcome to Matt Wood's Antique American Indian Art, llc (AAIA) eBay ListingsPlease HIT "SAVE THIS SELLER" in top-right corner of listing if you want notifications of our new listings.As the nation’s leading gallery of Antique North American Indian Art and Artifacts, we invite you to consider the beautiful art and artifacts that we list on eBay with full confidence in the authenticity and legality of the item, in the accuracy of the listing, and in the professionalism that we demonstrate in processing each transaction.
