Kevin Red Star is a Crow (Apsáalooke) artist known for vibrant paintings that celebrate his people’s history, traditions, and identity. Born in Lodge Grass, Montana, on the Crow Reservation, he joined the inaugural class of the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe in 1962 and later studied at the San Francisco Art Institute. His distinctive style combines bold color, stylized figures, and abstract elements in depictions of Crow dancers, warriors, horses, and ceremonial life. Drawing on family memories and cultural knowledge, Red Star brings a contemporary artistic vision to subjects rooted in his heritage.
