Composition drives Birgit’s photography. An amalgam of light, line and tone provides a sense of aesthetic balance and contemplative energy that invites the viewer to consider the familiar in unfamiliar ways. Birgit endeavors to create and nurture an intimate affinity with the subject, one that communicates and celebrates the beauty, poignancy and oft-times ironic nature of our chaotic world. The culture-scapes of Colorado and New Mexico are predominately featured in this exhibit.
One and the Same explores mirages and other psychological and optical illusions that sometimes occur in the perception of landscapes. Creating otherworldly and surreal places, Heather's work serves as a form of visual poetry for the idea of a parallel universe that is both clear and distorted, wonderful and strange. Photographed in Taos county, her work examines mirages and other optical illusions by using multiple lenses, infrared filters, and long exposures to photograph landscapes. A mirage-like experience is created by placing a photograph in the back of a shadowbox frame, with a photo transfer strip placed on the front glass of the shadowbox.

Bringing back a cult classic – Director’s Cut! Donnie Darko is a movie that promotes hard thinking and even harder re-thinking -- after the film ends, it's almost impossible to keep yourself from thinking of all the possible ways to interpret it. It's not quite surreal or quirky, it's more like a set of events which seem to make sense on one level, no sense on another level, and finally perfect sense on another level. The movie acts as an illusion to what's really going on. It’s a most pleasantly distracting movie!

David A Leffel:An American Master - Documentary Film & Exhibition
David A Leffel:An American Master - Documentary Film & Exhibition
May 18 - 21, 2017
Taos Community Auditorium
Film
Thursday May 18, 7pm - One Night Only
David A Leffel: An American Master is a documentary of an artist’s search to understand the lost knowledge of the old masters. Through an avid study of Rembrandt van Rijn, one of the greatest artists in history, he reveals a destined love affair with painting and former student and soul mate, Sherrie McGraw. Through anecdotal stories from the past, we learn how a serious bone disease almost ended his life and how that led to profound insights into the magic of living a sentient existence.
A talented raconteur, Leffel delights the audience with experiences painting and teaching Abstract Realism, and his own thoughts on Modern Art. We witness the intensity he maintains while painting the portrait and hear interviews with friends and professional colleagues who illuminate the many sides of this modest realist legend. But no matter where your aesthetics lie, David A Leffel: An American Master reveals how the power in simply living moment-to-moment can transform a life.
Q&A - With Director, George Gallo; Editor, John Vitale; and David Leffel, Artist
$12 General; $10 TCA Member; $5 Youth
Tickets available at TCA office – 758-2052; at the door, or online by clicking here (additional fees apply to online ticket purchases)
Books
A talented writer, Leffel has authored two books, An Artists Teaches: Reflections on the Art of Painting and Self-Portraits: A Journey of Insight, both published by Bright Light Publishing. Books will be available before and after screening.
Exibition
Thursday May 18 to Sunday May 21: Call 758-2052 for hours.
Serendipity brings this exhibtion to the TCA. It will only be on exhibit for 4days due to other long term scheduled exhibitions. This is an extraordinary exhibition and certainly a do not miss.
Leffel is not only recognized by his peers as a painters’ painter, he is also considered by many to be no less than the artistic reincarnation of Rembrandt. He continues to spread his special understanding of how painting works with students worldwide through membership to an online instructional library, The Artists Guild at Bright Light Fine Art.
Leffel’s work resides in the permanent collection of the Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa, OK; the Museum of the Southwest in Midland, TX; the J.B. Speed Art Museum in Louisville, KY; the Elizabeth T. Greenshields Foundation in Montreal, Canada; and the New York Racing Association in New York, NY, which acquired his famous painting of Belmont Race Track. His work is also found in some of the most important private collections compiled today. In May of 2016 Leffel had a comprehensive retrospective at the Weisman Museum in Malibu, California where work from as young as age 12 will hang along side his most recent masterpieces.

A juried show of artworks by Taos artists, all depicting the artist himself/herself. One of TCA's most popular shows!
Join the artists for an opening reception Thursday, May 25th from 4 to 6pm and vote for your favorite self portrait in The Peoples' Choice Awards.
This year's self portrait artists were challenged to not only create works of art that reflected their personality, life stories, and feelings in a media of their choice, but to also choose one color -- to play with dark and light, warm and cool, and hue and texture. Easy, one thinks, but not so! What is color and do we all see color the same?Each artist has chosen to depict himself or herself in an objective or subjective manner within a chosen style. A few of the styles in the show include abstract, expressionism and representational.
The jury reviewed forty well-qualified submissions, with the final selection including the works of twenty-nine artists. The artists are:
Jaya Aaron, Kathleen Brennan, Hank Brusselback, Joana Cardozo, Catherine De Brito, Donna Dufresne, Bob Fitch, Ron Furedi, Meredith Garcia, Zelma Goldstein, Carolyn Hinske, Cynthia Homire, Seri Kotowski, Gloria Longval, TJ Mabrey, Anna Magruder, Brook Maher, Diane Nelson-Scott, Susan Pasquarelli, Joy Purcell, Rhonda Read-Turner, Sunny Redmond, Princetta Rose, Rosalind Rosen, Charlotte Shroyer, Brian Skinner, Jean Stevens and Izumi Yokoyama.
The Self Portrait show will grace the walls of The Encore Gallery through July 9th.

Gemma Arterton is Joan of Arc in Josie Rourke's production of Bernard Shaw's classic play.
Josie Rourke (Les Liaisons Dangereuses, The Vote, Coriolanus) directs Gemma Arterton (Gemma Bovery, Nell Gwynn, Made in Dagenham) as Joan of Arc in this electrifying production.
Bernard Shaw’s classic play follows the life and trial of a young country girl who declares a bloody mission to drive the English from France. As one of the first Protestants and nationalists, she threatens the very fabric of the feudal society and the Catholic Church across Europe.

Big SCreen TCA: ONE WEEK AND A DAY

Location: Taos Community Auditorium
How a mother and father attempt to go back to "normal life" after the death of their son
May 28-31
Sun 2pm Mon-Wed 7pm
Director: Asaph Polonsky, Israel, Runtime 1hr 38min, Unrated, Drama, 2017
Asaph Polonsky's first feature film combines drama with humor, levity and death. Quirky and endearing, this tale, like its characters, matures from offbeat to the right beat. The elements of comedy and drama are beautifully balanced, the acting is uniformly excellent, and Polonsky uses widescreen shots beautifully to enhance the emotional back and forth of the events he films. It’s the kind of movie where one can see new things with every viewing, and Peter Halter, our Film Programmer, says he can't wait to see it again.
Tickets are $8.50 for G.A., $7.00 for TCA Members and $5.00 for youth 17 and under.
