About the Artist
Al Hubbard is a Northern Arapaho and Navajo multi-media artist born in Idaho Falls, Idaho. He studied at the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe, New Mexico and Central Wyoming College in Riverton, Wyoming.
Al’s range of projects have included painting, installation and printmaking. The unique manipulation mix of materials consists of image-transfers, acrylic mediums, and collage elements, reflect the complexity and multi-levels of living as a Native American in today’s world. His work combines stories, memory, and iconography of the Northern Arapaho and Navajo nations. Connecting these elements into his own visual language creates a direct link to the preservation of the past, living today, and preparing
for the future.
Al currently resides on the Wind River Reservation in central Wyoming. He continues to inspire others as he creates and produces bodies of work that challenges and redefines institutional Native American art.
