Fritz Scholder : Major Indian Paintings 1967 - 1977. Published to coincide with an exhibit at the Wheelwright Museum, Santa Fe, New Mexico, May 15 - July 8, 1977. From a Statement by the artist: "Ten years ago in Santa Fe, I painted my first painting of the Indian Series. Since the image didn't look much like an American Indian, I stenciled the words Indian on the front of the painting. It gives me pleasure to see that first painting, along with other key works brought together to be exhibited, many for the first time. The Indian Series has gone through a number of phases: monster Indians, Indians on horses, the Dartmouth Portraits and the American Portraits along with contemporary Indians in Gallup and most recently, the Indian Postcards."

Fritz Scholder (October 6, 1937-February 10, 2005) was one of the most renowned Native American artists of the 20th century. Born in Breckenridge, Minnesota, Scholder was one-quarter Luiseño,1 a California Mission tribe. Scholder's most influential works were post-modern in sensibility and somewhat Pop Art in execution as he sought to deconstruct the mythos of the American Indian. A teacher at the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe in the late 1960s, Scholder influenced a generation of students that are prominent Native artists today.
