| KEVIN RED STAR | THE PREMIER PLAINS ARTIST | ROBERTS AND RED LODGE, MONTANA - the homepage of kevin red star, the premier plains artist
Intensely brilliant colors and an almost mystical use of light bring a special joy to the canvases of Kevin Red Star. Kevin draws from his Crow culture for his subjects -- historical and modern. His exaggeration of the anatomical features and the haunting eyes captivate the viewer. Then the experienced hand finishes the canvas adding a deeper dimension. These are defining characteristics of the work of internationally acclaimed artist Kevin Red Star.
Kevin was born on the Crow Indian Reservation in Lodge Grass, Montana-- the third oldest in a family of nine. His father had an abiding interest in music and his mother is a skilled craftswoman. In this nurturing environment, Kevin developed early artistic capability.
In 1962, Kevin's formal art education began at the Institute of American Indian Art (IAIA) when he was selected to be among the first 150 students for this experimental Native American art school in Santa Fe. Here Kevin was exposed to various mediums and expressions of art, learning the fundamentals of art from the finest Native American teachers. In 1974, Kevin was asked to return to IAIA to participate in their Artist-in-Residence program. While in Santa Fe, he expanded his art to include stone lithography, serigraphs and etchings.
