Charles Loloma, Hopi Jeweler
Charles Loloma was one of the first Native American jewelers to use gold instead of silver
and diamonds and other precious gems in addition to turquoise, coral, and shell. His
innovative designs, so sculptural in quality, were internationally acclaimed. And his
clients included celebrities, monarchs, and presidents. This program examines the work of
Charles Loloma—and how the visionary behind the enchanting jewelry managed to break
the barriers that separated Indian traditionalism and mainstream modern art. For him, the
art world and the Hopi world were one. (30 minutes, color)
