Clifford Beck
(1946-1995)
"Each face reveals a story," Clifford Beck says. "I analyze faces like a historian analyzes the details of mankind's written history."
Beck, a Navajo Indian who lived in Scottsdale, Arizona, said although his portraits are faces of individuals, they portray the many. Through them he tried to link the traditional Navajo with the non-Indian.
Beck himself was a link between cultures. He was born in the Black Mesa area between the Hopi Reservation and the Utah border. His mother, a weaver, and his father, a tribal councilman, provided him with an understanding of tribal custom, values and religious beliefs. He also studied at the California College of Arts, focusing on art history, photography and studio art.
In an attempt to fuse these two facets of his life, Beck returned to the reservation and began teaching basic design, studio painting and advanced drawing at the Navajo Community College. He also served as director of the cultural arts department of Many Farms High School in Black Mesa area.
A painter, illustrator, photographer and teacher, Clifford Beck was a Navajo Indian who settled in Flagstaff, Arizona. He attended the California College of Arts and Crafts and the University of Northern Arizona. less
