About John Nieto Applying his highly personal, emotional treatment of color to a wide range of subjects, John Nieto's art mirrors the complicated heritage of the Southwest, as well as the intertwining threads of his own ancestry. He is known for his emotionally resonant paintings of Southwestern, Indigenous, and wildlife subjects conveyed in heightened, expressive color. Nieto was inspired by both his own heritage and his deep study of the history and culture throughout the Southwest. His ancestry—a mix of Spanish and Native American—Mescalero Apache and Navajo—can be traced back more than three hundred years in New Mexico. Nieto's work was exhibited across the United States and in Europe, Japan, Latin America, and Africa. After participating in an exhibit at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC, John met with President Reagan in the Oval Office of the White House and presented him with his painting, “Delegate to the White House.” The work was hung in in the White House for many years and was later included in the collection of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California. In 1994, Nieto received New Mexico's Governor's Award for achievement in the Arts, the state’s highest honor for a living artist. He received Southern Methodist University’s Distinguished Alumni Award in 2006. Today, Nieto’s work is represented in numerous prominent museums.
