Kenneth Miller Adams Art

American, 1897-1966
Kenneth Miller Adams was born in Kansas and first started his art career in Topeka in 1913. He studied with artist, G.M. Stone, whose instruction became the basis for his formal education that began three years later at the Art Institute of Chicago. After serving in WWI, he moved to New York City to study at the Art Students League. Soon after completing his courses there, Adams moved abroad to study Italian and French art. In 1924, Adams was back in Kansas, where friend and fellow artist Andrew Dasburg encouraged him to move to New Mexico. Adams settled in Taos, and remained there for the next twelve years. He was the youngest and last member of the Taos Society of Artists. Adams became a professor at the University of New Mexico in Taos in 1929. In 1938, he moved to Albuquerque after receiving a Carnegie Corporation Grant, becoming the first artist-in-residence at the University of New Mexico. He went on to teach at the university for the next 25 years, attaining the rank of full professor in 1963. He passed way in Albuquerque, New Mexico, in 1966.

About the artist: Painter Kenneth Adams (1897-1963) arrived on the Taos art scene in 1924, at the urging of his former instructor Andrew Dasburg. Although Adams had been born and raised less than 700 miles away in Topeka, Kansas, his journey to the Southwest had been years - and countries - in the making. Earlier in his 20s, Adams had embarked on the Midwesterner’s equivalent of a Grand Tour: Chicago, then New York City, and finally, Italy and France. From these sojourns, the artist had absorbed all the lessons in light, color, and form that renowned teachers and rolling countrysides could offer. Now, thanks to Dasburg’s invitation, Adams found he could stop traveling; he had finished honing his craft and found his muse. New Mexico - its people and its land - would be an infinite source of inspiration. Adam’s painterly devotion soon impressed the prestigious Taos Society of Artists...
