Fine art photographer Meredith Garcia and painter Tera Muskrat are emerging artists in Taos who have come together to mount a Norteño-themed show as part of the “TCA Exhibits” series at The Taos Inn. Both were poster artists for the Taos Fall Arts Festival [Garcia in 2015 and Muskrat in 2016], and they share a love of the people and culture of Northern New Mexico – “El Norte.”

Merediths photographs are from a suite of work entitled “Española Redux.” Meredith taught for several years at Northern New Mexico College, where she learned to love and appreciate the people of Española and their distinctive lifestyle. If Taos is the "Soul of the Southwest," Española is its viscera.  With its people steeped in the traditional culture of Northern New Mexico, with the accompanying blood, sweat, toil and tears of its agricultural and blue-collar roots, the heart of Española beats to a different drum. Her photographs capture the gritty reality of life in the town that was once known as the Low Rider Capital of the World, whose culture is being changed by the influx of modern life. Several of the subjects of her photographs have disappeared since she took their images – most notably, the iconic watering-hole Red’s Bar, now replaced by a gas station – and others have closed and are suffering demolition by neglect, such as the Arrow Motel. Her work serves to celebrate as well as to enshrine these elements of Norteño culture.

Tera has truly become a New Mexican and as an artist, she has managed to paint daily life in a very authentic manner that expresses the real dignity and beauty of the people with whom she has become friends and family, with an emphasis on women. She paints contemporary expressions of New Mexican women in daily life. Tera’s paintings capture an authentic experience, which shows all of the beauty in Northern New Mexico. Her New Mexico Calendar Girls are celebrations of the strength, durability, power, diversity, and uniqueness of the women here, inspired by the calendar artists of Mexico from the 1930s and ‘40s and the folk artists of northern New Mexico. Tera’s art is powerful, witty, and transgressive, pushing at the boundaries of the Taos art scene with a playful finger. Her work is unique.

The opening reception for the show will be at The Taos Inn on Friday, June 9 2017, from 4:00-6:00 PM. Light refreshments will be served and a cash bar will be available. The work will be on display through September 11.

Artist Talk - Thursday August 17, from 4 to 6 pm.

Migration, is a mixture of wall vessels and boxes made of paper clay, as well as Sang Roberson’s traditional terra cotta box forms on pedestals. The title alludes to the transition from pedestals to the walls of Encore Gallery. Sang says the many colors of the Southwest, in particular the flowers in her Taos garden, have influenced the shapes and palette for this exhibit.

Roberson describes her work as non-functional sculpted boxes and vessels inspired by the organic shapes of nature. Roberson’s work is hand built from slabs of terra cotta or paper clay. Each piece is burnished with terra sigillata, a fine clay slip. The work is fired twice in electric kilns, then often pit-fired outside in hay, sawdust, bamboo and other plants. All findings are organic and the cording used is waxed linen.

Sang Roberson grew up on a lake in the Mississippi Delta where she was surrounded by nature. Her work is inspired by her love of nature’s organic forms. She also believes that her signature box shapes are derived from the many Sundays she and her family spent at the construction sites of custom homes that her father, a builder, designed. Roberson got her start in pottery from a class she learned about in a newspaper ad. The class offered free babysitting, so she took her son and took the class. Since that introduction to ceramics, she has refined her craft and distinctive style. She describes her relationship to clay as “Love and Obsession.”

Sang attended Sophie Newcomb College and received her bachelor’s degree from the University of Mississippi. Her sculpted clay forms have been exhibited in galleries nationally and internationally and in juried exhibitions such as SOFA Chicago, SOFA New York, the Smithsonian Craft Show and the Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show. She is a recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts Individual Fellowship and a Visual Artist Grant from the Florida Department of State. She has led clay workshops at the Penland School in Penland, NC.; La Universidad Nacional in Bogota, Columbia; and Gaya Ceramic, Ubud, Bali, Indonesia, among numerous others. Her artwork is in many public and private collections.

Roberson is currently represented by Blue Spiral 1, Asheville, NC., and Watson MacRae Gallery, Sanibel, Florida.

Tunnel Books

The current Taos Books Arts display features tunnel books, a form of three dimensional
art. Tunnel books are a series of pages held together by folded strips of paper, giving
an illusions of depth and perspective. Originally called peep show art, this form has been
around since the mid 18th Century.

Director: Brett Haley, USA, Runtime 93mins, Rated R, Drama, 2017
Stars: Sam Elliott, Nick Offerman, Krysten Ritter, Katharine Ross

Writer-Director Brett Haley’s latest film reflects on the life of an aging Western actor whose only significant role was in "The Hero,” a movie made in the 70s. "I've been busy not achieving," Lee comments. Haley pays attention to the details, since it's the small things in life that make most of our lives. The movie is full of top performances but none more so than Sam Elliott, who seems to be only getting better as he gets older.

Tickets are $8.50 for G.A., $7.00 for TCA Members and $5.00 for youth 17 and under.

Clint Murphy once again brings Misfits, Malcontents and Mystics to the TCA stage -- an engaging evening of stories about Taos, always fun, often surprising, usually inspiring, sometimes risque and NEVER boring!

This time it's all about the ladies of Taos and, appropriately so, all proceeds will benefit HEART of Taos, our new local nonprofit dedicated to providing transitional housing, emergency assistance and support services for Taos women who are facing homelessness or are actively without a home.

Tickets are $10 and may be purchased in advance by calling (575)758-2052 Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm or in person at the TCA office behind Caffe Renato. Tickets will also be available at the theater box office, which will open at 6:15pm for the 7pm performance.

Paint! is a show at The Stables Gallery August 4-13 offering work by two artists who met in a painting class at UNM Taos given by Gary Cook - Rosalind Rosen and Rhonda Read Turner.

Jasper Johns said, "Sometimes I see it and then paint it. Other times I paint it and then see it."

Turner's works in this exhibition arise from a series she calls "Altered States." Each of the pieces appeared to her during meditation and the resulting work attempts to capture the memory of those very vivid patterns and colors and experiences. Turner has been amazed at how vibrant colors can seem when your eyes are closed; she has seen and then painted.

Rosalind Rosen adheres to Johns's latter idea. Her work is always evolving within a process of experimentation - color usually being a continuing dominant element. Drawing on her past of living overseas extensively, she is always open to new experiences whether in fact or on canvas.

An opening reception will be held at The Stables Gallery on Friday, August 4, from 4 to 7 pm.

For more information, call 770-3182 or 776-1536.

In “Spirit Game” directors Peter Spirer and Peter Baxter turn the spotlight on the Native American founders of Lacrosse. This isn’t a standard sports documentary -- the focus is on spiritual matters as well as physical because it deals with a game as old as time. As if this weren’t enough, “Spirit Game” also has a political message concerning a proclamation known as the Doctrine of Discovery which said any lands without Christians living on them were empty and free to be colonized.

Paper, Paper, Paper Exhibition

The Paper, Paper, Paper Exhibition (Sept 4 to Oct 29) will call for works of art created with paper as a medium. Cellulose must be involved in the concept of the artwork and works may be handmade papers, manipulated papers, prints that feature paper in some way, artist’s books made with papers etc.

Lynn Sures, Professor Emerita and former Chair of Fine Arts at the Corcoran College of Art + Design in Washington, DC, has been invited to jury the exhibition and conduct a pulp and paper workshop. Lynn has traveled within the US, Italy, Japan, Australia, Sri Lanka, and Turkey to exhibit, lecture, and offer workshops on hand papermaking. Lynn has recently been awarded an Artist’s Research Fellowship from the Smithsonian Institution for research in Washington, DC and Kenya. The expertise that Lynn brings to both is not found among Taos artists and there has been an expressed interest among printmakers and bookmakers for instruction in pulp drawing and paper making.

Call for submissions pending. Stay tuned.

Pulp and Paper Workshop

The Pulp and Paper Workshop (Oct 26 to Oct 29) at the Stables Gallery will provide participants with the opportunity to prepare several types of natural pulp fibers –including hand-beating kozo pulp, pigmenting abaca and flax pulp to create collaborative and individual pulp paintings.

Reception for the artist on September 14, 4:00 - 6:00pm

Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter, The Woman in Black), Joshua McGuire (The Hour) and David Haig (Four Weddings and a Funeral, The Witness for the Prosecution) star in Tom Stoppard’s brilliantly funny situation comedy, broadcast live from The Old Vic theatre in London.

David Leveaux’s new production marks the 50th anniversary of the play that made a young Tom Stoppard’s name overnight.

Against the backdrop of Hamlet, two hapless minor characters, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, take centre stage. As the young double act stumble their way in and out of the action of Shakespeare’s iconic drama, they become increasingly out of their depth as their version of the story unfolds.

Runtime is 2 hours 45 minutes including intermission.

“Ponselle, Milanov, Sutherland, Callas -- after last night, Radvanovsky can add her name to the list,” declared the Huffington Post when Sondra Radvanovsky made her Met role debut as Norma in 2013. The 2017–18 season opens with a new production of Bellini’s masterpiece, starring Radvanovsky as the Druid priestess and Joyce DiDonato as her archrival, Adalgisa—a casting coup for bel canto fans. Tenor Joseph Calleja is Pollione, Norma’s unfaithful lover, and Carlo Rizzi conducts. Sir David McVicar’s evocative production sets the action deep in a Druid forest where nature and ancient ritual rule.

Estimated runtime is 3hours 4 minutes, with one intermission.

Rory Kinnear (The Threepenny Opera, Penny Dreadful, Othello) is Marx and Oliver Chris (Twelfth Night, Green Wing) is Engels, in this new comedy written by Richard Bean and Clive Coleman. The production is directed by Nicholas Hytner and reunites the creative team behind Broadway and West End hit comedy One Man, Two Guvnors.
1850, and Europe’s most feared terrorist is hiding in Dean Street, Soho. Broke, restless and horny, the thirty-two-year-old revolutionary is a frothing combination of intellectual brilliance, invective, satiric wit, and child-like emotional illiteracy.
Creditors, spies, rival revolutionary factions and prospective seducers of his beautiful wife all circle like vultures. His writing blocked, his marriage dying, his friend Engels in despair at his wasted genius, his only hope is a job on the railway. But there’s still no one in the capital who can show you a better night on the piss than Karl Heinrich Marx.
