Bob Haozous

Bob Haozous is a Chiricahua Apache sculptor from Santa Fe, New Mexico.

[2] His parents are Anna Marie Gallegos, a Navajo-Mestiza textile artist, and the late Allan Houser (1914–1994), a famous 20th-century Apache sculptor.

[3] Haozous studied at Utah State University before enlisting in the US Navy, where he served for four years on board of the USS Frank Knox during the Vietnam War.

[citation needed] He creates work about his Apache heritage, the environment–especially climate change–and institutional racism.

As an emerging artist, Haozous exhibited at the annual SWAIA Santa Fe Indian Market, from 1971 until 1991.
