Source: Frank Kaquitts Date: August 15, 1967 Interviewed by: Gord Kelly Speed: 3 ¾ Remarks: Interview on “Today from Calgary” with host Gord Kelly. “CFCN TV, Frank Kaquitts, Aug. 15, 1967” Artist Frank Kaquitts discusses some of his paintings. Attended the Banff School of Fine Arts. Quadravision paintings (can turn it any way), he has the past present and future in on painting – centennial symbol, beautiful colors. Most of his work incorporates Indian scenes – portrait of an Indian child “kid.” Some of his paintings for sale at the Trading Post. Starts with one thing turns it around until finished – quadravision technique. East side of “Clinic” (?) Lake. His own people like his painting. One picture is supposed to give you a feeling of warmth, moon is at the horizon, Indian person making a peace-pipe offering. The buffalo skull depicted in painting represents danger. Frank Kaquitts Indian name is Sitting Wind. He Sketches outdoors, paints indoors – works only in oils. Description of his painting of a Chinook arch.
