About the Item

Native American on horseback. Signed and numbered 24/30, artists cypher. Daro Flood (1954 - 2017) was active/lived in Arizona. Daro Flood is known for Portrait bust Indian and cowboy sculpture. Daro Flood was a jeweler who made the decision to fully dedicate himself to realist sculpture. His studio is in Arizona, and he derives his subject matter from personal experiences depicting the people and places with which he has had contact. American Indians of the western United States are a favorite subject, and he has received commissions for public art. When Daro Flood passed away in 2017, he was immediately hailed by collectors, curators, and fellow artists as a “true Renaissance man,” as someone who, as one curator observed, “had the closest thing these days to a 19th century sensibility about nature and the natural world around him. He knew and understood things that few modern people do. He was one of the few people I have ever known that could be dropped into the middle of the wilderness and make do for himself just fine.” Daro Flood was born into a world of western art and indigenous artifacts. His father, Dick Flood, was an old-time trader who opened the first art gallery in Jackson, Wyoming. Born and educated in Scottsdale, Arizona, by the age of 18—just out of high school—Daro Flood had mastered so many Native American skills that he was appointed conservator of the museum collections of the Alaska State Museum in Juneau, Alaska where he “literally ‘saved for posterity’ some of Alaska’s most priceless and irreplaceable cultural objects.” Flood then went on to study sculpture and to create exceptional bronzes of Plains and Northwest Coast Indians, wrapping his impeccable research and knowledge of beadwork, wood and ivory carving, and quill and birchbark around exquisitely rendered physical forms and faces. Flood’s body of work ranks with the finest in the history of American Western bronze.
