Luis Rolando Ixquiac Xicará (born 1947) is an indigenous artist born in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala.〔Móbil, José A. Historia del arte guatemalteco, 11th Edition.

Manual de arte latinoamericano: A Bibliographic Compilation. 2 vols. General ed., Joyce Waddell Bailey. Santa Barbara: ABC-Clio Information Services, 1984.〕 He is known, principally in Latin America, for his ability to combine abstract art with vernacular art forms (sometimes referred to as primitivism or Naïve art) to represent elements of the natural Guatemalan landscape, including animals.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=retrieved September 23, 2009 )〕 While Ixquiac Xicara shares the tradition of neo-naïf, or folk imagery, art, he creates images through a modernist abstract lens.〔Zuleta, Aspasia and Morten Svendsen. Maya, Sami, Barí, Wayúu, Yukpa, Añú: arte contemporáneo. 2003: Centro de Arte de Maracaibo Lía Bermúdez (Venezuela).〕 He works in oil on board and canvas, and also produces drawings and watercolors on paper. Ixquiac Xicará's art is held in the collection of the Museo Nacional de Arte Moderno "Carlos Mérida" in Guatemala City,〔Stewart, Iaian. The Rough Guide to Guatemala 3rd Edition.
