Taos Art Museum & Fenchin House

Taos Art Museum & Fenchin House

Paintings by the founders of the Taos Society of Artists: Joseph H. Sharp, Bert G. Phillips, Ernest L. Blumenschein, Oscar E. Berninghaus, E.I. Couse and W. Herbert Dunton are exhibited, together with the active and associate members. Works of art by Nicolai Fechin and the Taos Moderns are also featured.

The Fechin home and studio are filled with his hand carved doors, windows and furniture. Fechin was a master of painting, sculpture, woodcarving and architectural design. The home he designed and reconstructed is on the National Register of Historic Places. The Taos Art Museum is just two blocks north of the famous Taos Plaza, in front of the Fechin Inn.
