Emmi Whitehorse (born 1956) is a Native American painter. She was born in Crownpoint, New Mexico and is a member of the Navajo Nation. She currently lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Emmi Whitehorse grew up on the open land northeast of Gallup, New Mexico in a family where only the Navajo Language was spoken. In 1980, Whitehorse earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in painting from the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque (UNW). She earned her master's degree in art in 1982, also from UNM, majoring in printmaking and minoring in art history.〔http://chiaroscurosantafe.com/artists/21/. Retrieved May 3, 2014.〕 Whitehorse's paintings draw upon a personal iconography, based on her reflections of her natural surroundings. She brings together Navajo cosmological perspectives with abstraction in her work.〔Reno, Dawn. ''Contemporary Native American Artists.'' Brooklyn: Alliance Publishing, 1995:183〕 Whitehorse's work is deliberately apolitical.〔(Biography. www.ewhitehorse.com ) (retrieved 25 Jan 09)〕 Her paintings are usually oil on paper, mounted on canvas. Her work is represented in public collections throughout North America, Europe, Japan, Uzbekistan and Morocco. Now Emmi Whitehorse's abstract work is exhibited internationally, and she travels to Europe often. ==Education== 1980 B.A., Major in Painting, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM 1982 M.A., Major in Printmaking, Minor in Art History, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Emmi Whitehorse」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
