“Race of Fire”
Frank Day (Konkow Maidu) was born in 1902, in Berry Creek, Butte County, California, and died August 13, 1976, in Sacramento. Day was educated in the Berry Creek public school system and at Greenville Indian School, but he had no formal training as an artist. Day explained: “I talk my paintings, say them, sing them, and then paint them.” In 1967, the American Indian Historical Society (San Francisco) featured a solo exhibition of Day’s work at their Museum of Indian Art. Other exhibition venues have included the Crocker Art Museum, the C.N. Gorman Museum (Davis, CA), the Heard Museum, the Museum of the Plains Indian (Browning, MT), the Office of California Governor Edmund G. Brown, the Native American Center for the Living Arts (Niagara Falls, NY), and the Oakland Museum of California.
