....John Nieto is widely regarded as
one of the most accomplished and exciting contemporary artists in
the United States. An innovative
interpreter of his native southwest, Nieto's
dramatic compositions and bold use of color translate classic
American themes into unmistakably modern images that somehow escape
the boundaries of time. While Nieto
maintains that his art is the result of an emotional involvement
with his subject matter rather than a cerebral one, his powerfully
evocative paintings reveal a seamless blend of instinct and keen
intelligence. His deft handling of Western
motifs - including Native American
tribal representatives, warriors, and ceremonial dancers, as well as
legendary frontiersmen or indigenous wildlife - demonstrates why
these icons still loom large in the national consciousness.
Wielding his brush with precision and
control, Nieto invest each figure with a mesmerizing presence.
In 1994, Nieto received New Mexico's
prestigious Governor's Award for achievement in the Arts. He
has served on the Advisory Board of The Wheelwright
Museum in Santa Fe, the Advisory Board of the Native American
Preparatory School, and served as a Regent at his alma mater,
Southern Methodist University in Dallas
where he received his Bachelor of Arts
Degree.... |
