Linda Lomahaftewa: Council of 100’s 2025 Distinguished Woman Artist

Aug 09, 2025 - Jan 11, 2026
Linda Lomahaftewa of the Hopi Nation in Arizona is the Council of 100’s Distinguished Woman Artist for 2025. A practicing Native American artist since 1964, her exhibition at the Fresno Art Museum concentrates on the years 1965 through 1976, when she left her homeland to live and work in the San Francisco Bay Area. On exhibit will be major paintings accomplished over this period when her use of Native iconography and abstract desert landscapes starkly contrasts with the Bay Area Figurative Movement which at that time dominated the Northern California art scene. In addition to the significant early paintings exhibited in the Lobby Gallery, recent prints will be shown in the Concourse Gallery.
