Los Cinco Pintores

Known as "five little nuts in five adobe huts," the Cinco Pintores challenged the artistic audiences of the 1920s and 1930s, which had grown accustomed to romantic depictions of Pueblo Indians created by the more traditional Taos Society of Artists. The Cinco Pintores enjoyed the newly founded Museum of Fine Arts "open door" policy that provided alcove exhibition space regardless of stylistic "schools," and sponsored numerous Pintores exhibitions beginning in December 1921.

Biography of Jozef Bakos (1891-1977)

Jozef Bakos, born in Buffalo, New York, was a member of “Los Cinco Pintores,” an avant garde painting group in Santa Fe. Trained in Buffalo, Toronto and Denver, Jozef Bakos went on to teach at the University of Colorado at Boulder, the University of Denver and Santa Fe High School. Multi-talented as much by necessity as choice (Los Cinco Pintores were never terribly successful at selling their work) Bakos was also a carpenter and furniture maker whose large commissions (like that which he received from La Fonda Hotel) sustained him financially. The Pintores (Bakos, Ellis, Mruk, Nash and Shuster) dissolved after only five years, but Jozef Bakos stayed in Santa Fe and became famous for his parties and anachronistic hobbies, including home brewing.
