Marcus Amerman Art
Native American, b. 1959
Marcus Amerman is a Choctaw bead artist, painter, fashion designer, and performance artist. He was born in 1959 in Phoenix, Arizona.
At the age of ten, his aunt taught him the techniques of Native American beadwork and he is now renown for his highly realistic beadwork portraits. Amerman has portrayed many historical heroes in his beadwork, such Chief Joseph, pop icons such as Janet Jackson, and imagery inspired by comic superheroes.
He earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts from Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington. He also studied the Institute of American Indian Arts and the Anthropology Film Center.
Amerman's work is in the collections of the George Gustav Heye Center, the National Museum of the American Indian, the American Museum of Natural History, the Heard Museum, the Portland Art Museum, the Sequoyah National Research Center, and the Museum of Arts and Design.

Provenance
Steve Chase Design, Palm Springs, CA
Ronnie Landfield was born in the Bronx, NY on January 9, 1947 - the same day as his older brother. As a teenager, he was encouraged to pursue a career as an artist, subsequently creating his first real paintings around the age of 14. He was particularly influenced by a Life magazine article from 1961 on the Abstract Expressionists, most notably: Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Adolph Gottlieb, Hans Hofmann, Mark Rothko, Clyfford Still, Robert Motherwell and Franz Kline.
After stints at the Art Students League, the Kansas City Art Institute, the San Francisco Art Institute, and the University of California at Berkeley, Landfield’s professional career as a painter began in New York in 1965. The following year, after completing a major series of hard-edge border paintings, success as a painter began to materialize. The famous architect and collector Philip Johnson and the collector Robert Scull each acquired large paintings works, as did the Sheldon Memorial Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska.
In 1967, Landfield was invited to participate in the Whitney Annual at the end of the year. His work attracted considerable attention, and he was invited to participate in important group exhibitions at the Bykert, Bianchini, and Park Place Galleries in New York.
Landfield joined the David Whitney...
