Nevada Fine Art owner R. Russ Lindsay is an authority on the life and artwork of Nevada artist Robert Cole Caples. In 2006 Russ successfully nominated Caples’ home and studio in Dayton, Nevada, to the State Register of Historic Places. He later co-curated the traveling exhibition “Robert Cole Caples: Rooted in Nevada” as part of the Nevada Touring Initiative’s Traveling Exhibition Program. He authored the exhibition’s education guide and in 2007 penned the article “Remembering Robert Cole Caples” for the winter edition of the Nevada Historical Society Quarterly (link loads slowly).

Russ holds a B.A. in Art (Illustration) from California State University, Fullerton, and a Graduate Certificate in Art Gallery and Museum Studies from California State University, East Bay, the latter of which included an internship at the Nevada Museum of Art in Reno. He served more than 20 years in the defense and law enforcement intelligence communities as an analyst and operations specialist. He holds an M.A. in National Security Affairs from the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California. He has lived and worked in a number of countries around the world, providing a unique form of intellectual and aesthetic training that no formal education could replicate.
