Jean LaMarr (1945- )
Some Kind of Buckaroo
Pitt River/Paiute

"Because I recognize that there are certain audiences . . . people who are sensitive and understanding . . . I feel like my work needs some kind of artistic intelligence . . . recognizing what has happened to Indian people . . . what's happening in current events . . . I try to use symbolism . . . I feel that might represent something that other people might recognize."
