A prolific artist, teacher, writer, and poet who worked in many styles and media, his sculpture, painting, and prints are simultaneously rooted in traditional Eskimo and Northwest Coast Native styles and are highly innovative and contemporary. His art bridges past and present, and his philosophies on the evolution and meanings of Native art will be influential for many years to come. As a teacher and writer, he was instrumental in the advancement of Alaska Native arts education and active in public discourse on Native arts throughout the 1970s and 1980s. In his tragically brief time, he built a lasting creative legacy.? - Steve Henrikson. N° de ref. del artículo 003385
