Gerald Dawavendewa's fine art reflects the rich culture
of the Hopi and Cherokee people that spans thousands of years of creativity.
His work is inspired by ancient prehistoric art in the Americas which
include Kiva murals, pottery, petroglyphs, and Katsinam ceremonies
and rituals that Gerald grew up with. Dawavendewa's involvement in
the museum field gave him opportunites to explore what archaeologists
and anthropologists had collected and wrote. Gerald admires early
native artists such as Fred Kabotie and members of Artist Hopid who
successfully developed their style to bridge traditional and modern
interpretations of Hopi culture. You can view more of Dawavendewa's
