One of the group’s aims was to arrange exhibitions for this body of work: “The goal is to make known the nature of transcending painting which, developed in its various phases, will serve to widen the horizon of art.” The group found some short-lived success in carrying out its goal, mounting shows at the 1939 World’s Fair, the Golden Gate International Exhibition,

with the concepts of identity and place, as well as the process of creation. Collecting many self-portraits in different mediums in one exhibition shines a light on how self-perception and self-reflection encompasses the full artist practice.

Eye to I: Self Portraits from 1900 to Today from the National Portrait Gallery, originally scheduled for last summer, was pushed back due to Covid closures and restrictions. One important work had to ship by courier and could not travel; another was committed to another exhibition. When Albuquerque Museum curators learned two works would not be part of the rescheduled exhibition, it gave them the opportunity to add New Mexico-based artists to the exhibition.

Museum curators chose three selfportraits from the permanent collection.

Although vastly different in style, they share the view of the artists living and working in a specific place—in this case, New Mexico’s desert landscapes.

with technique and process but in different ways. Will Wilson, no relation to Paula, lives and works in Santa Fe. His photographic project, Critical Indigenous Photographic Exchange uses wet collodion printing—an early photographic technique that requires quick exposure and development. It’s a manual process, requiring a metal plate that is sensitized with salted collodion and silver nitrate, and developed within minutes. The works produced are reminiscent of Edward Curtis’s early 20th century photographs (using the same process) of Native Americans. Wilson’s work, How the West is One shows the Diné photographer juxtaposed against himself —essentially his two identities.

The photograph is inherently political as he portrays himself as both cowboy and Indian, underscoring how identity is bound up in history and place.
