Arlo Namingha is 34 years old, from the Tewa/Hopi tribe, and the eldest son of internationally known artist Dan Namingha. He was born in Santa Fe, New Mexico and raised in San Juan Pueblo, New Mexico. Growing up with his Native culture, he began carving Katsina Dolls at an early age. Working from commissions in his early twenties, he started producing wood sculptures and now works in wood, clay, stone, fabricated and casted bronze. After managing Niman Fine Art for ten years, he is now focused on his art career with recent exhibits in both the Southwest and on the East coast. His works are included in many museums private collections as well as several U.S. Embassies. He has also given generously to various organizations and fundraisers throughout New Mexico.

In 2001, he was commissioned to be a part of the Horse Power New Mexico art project of Painted Ponies. His horse, Pueblo Pony, was designated for a local organization, Gerard’s House, which is a grieving center for young children to help them cope with the loss of a loved one.

In 2002, the Montclair Art Museum in Montclair, New Jersey acquired two pieces for their permanent collection which are currently o display.

In 2003, the First Lady of New Mexico selected two of his sculptures to be displayed at the Governors Mansion, where they remain.

Also in 2003, the New Mexico Community Foundation commissioned Arlo and Dan Namingha to create a sculpture that will be presented annually to a family or individuals who have contributed to the state of New Mexico. That year, the first recipient of the award was the New Mexico Lt. Governor, Diane Denish and her family, The Daniels. The title of the sculpture is Looking to the Future.

Arlo's work was a part of the traveling exhibit Changing Hands: Art Without Reservation, Contemporary Native American Art from the Southwest. The exhibit was ongoing from 2002 – 2004.

The Palm Desert Museum and the U.S. Embassies in Uzbekistan and Phnom Penh, Cambodia have recently added Arlo's work to their permanent collections.

The Albuquerque Museum in New Mexico has recently commissioned Arlo to do an outdoor sculpture for their permanent collection.
