PUBLISHER’S NOTE
|
THREE-DAY WEEKENDS are always special, but this long weekend in Santa Fe is going to be extraordinary. Zozobra burns tomorrow night and with it, all of your gloom, cares, and worries go up in smoke. Free of those annoyances, you are good to enjoy the Labor Day weekend with so many great things happening. This Friday night is final Friday of the month, which means gallery openings all over town. I would like to point you towards a special opening at DR Contemporary gallery, David Rothermel’s Homage to Hans. This group of paintings is David’s salute to a major influence in his career: Hans Hofmann, considered the father of abstraction. The gallery is on the corner of Old Santa Fe Trail and Alameda and it will be a very strong show. It’s also still Music Week. Be sure to check our music and nightlife listings, because this weekend is full of great music in just about every possible venue and genre. The weather looks gorgeous, gas is cheap, and it’s a three-day weekend. Go live large.

THE BURNING OF ZOZOBRA
MELINDA HERRERA
EVENT Each year at Santa Fe’s hottest party, the public sends Old Man Gloom up in flames. Zozobra, a 50-foot effigy designed in 1924 by artist Will Shuster, is one of the world’s tallest, fully functioning marionettes. The monstrous figure, which has large ears, pointing fingers, and glowing eyes, is stuffed with slips of paper inscribed with gloomy thoughts and disappointments. In a wild extravaganza, Zozobra is burned against a backdrop of colorful fireworks. The weekend before the big night, Zozobra is introduced at ZozoFest, a free public party and art show at the Santa Fe Place Mall. Souvenirs are for sale and anyone can add report cards, divorce papers, pink slips, and written grievances to the doomed puppet’s pile of kindling.–Sarah Eddy The Burning of Zozobra, August 30, 4–10 pm, $10, Fort Marcy Park, 490 Bishop’s Lodge, burnzozobra.com
NM RAILROAD HISTORY CELEBRATION
JAMES MCGREW
El Museo Cultural celebrates the history of the railroad in New Mexico over Labor Day weekend.
ASPEN SANTA FE BALLET
PERFORMANCE On August 31, the Aspen Santa Fe Ballet presents its first-ever evening-length ballet. Choreographer Nicolo Fonte’s Beautiful Decay hauntingly juxtaposes bold and skillful athleticism against the harsh realities of aging. Joining the company for this production are guest artists Hilary Cartwright and Gregg Bielemeier, two distinguished performers now in their 70s. The music comes from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, as well as contemporary composer Max Richter’s interpretation of the same, and original set design is by Tony Award–winner Mimi Lien. The dance company was created in 1996 in Aspen, Colorado, and it spread ballet further across the Southwest by forging a dual-city relationship with Santa Fe in 2000. ASFB places a priority on developing new performances and nurturing relationships with emerging choreographers. It fostered the early career of Fonte, who has now created or staged ballets for the Australian Ballet, the Finnish National Ballet, the Washington Ballet, and many others.—SE Aspen Santa Fe Ballet, August 31, 8 pm, $36–$94, Lensic Performing Arts Center, aspensantafeballet.com
EVENT The train is a classic symbol of the West. First arriving in New Mexico in the late-1870s, the railroad played a heavy role in shaping the history, industry, and culture of the state. This several-day event explores and celebrates that role. The weekend kicks off with an opening night reception and panel discussion Friday evening, 5–8 pm at El Museo Cultural. Then, all Labor Day weekend, find 21,000 square feet of model railroad layouts surrounded by related art and photography. Railroad information and concession booths educate visitors on railroad history, railroad safety, locomotive restoration projects, and rail artifacts. On both Saturday and Sunday, free, docent-led history walks start and finish at El Museo from 10 am to noon. The nearly twomile tours cover the greater Railyard area, stopping at the Santa Fe Depot, Union Station, Chili Line, and a dozen other points of historic interest. On Sunday, a mellow bike ride tour leaves at 10 am and visits the New Mexico Central Railroad, Bruns General Hospital Rail Spur, and other locations.–SE NM Railroad History Celebration, Opening Night Reception August 30, 5–8 pm, Exhibit open August 31–September 2, 10 am–4 pm, free, El Museo Cultural de Santa Fe, 555 Camino de la Familia, nmrailroadhistory.com.

While this is Aimee Erickson’s first solo show at Meyer Gallery, she’s no rookie. More than 20 years ago Erickson became the first female artist commissioned to paint the official portrait of an Oregon governor. Still life, landscape, and city scenes are all within her range, and she is known for her plein air work. Several of the paintings at Meyer are from this spring’s En Train Air event, during which Erickson and five other artists rode Amtrak’s Southwest Chief from Chicago to Los Angeles, stopping for a day or two in small towns along the way to paint the scenery.—Lisa J.

MONDEN YUICHI TAI Modern 1601 Paseo de Peralta taimodern.com August 30–September 14 Reception August 30, 5–7 pm
Monden Yuichi’s father, renowned bamboo artist Monden Kogyoku, discouraged his son from following in his footsteps. Monden heeded his father’s advice and, for financial security, became an engineer. “It was not until late one night in 1975, after my father was asleep, that I ventured into his studio and asked myself, ‘Is it not a waste for me to not try expressing myself through bamboo?’” Monden says. He began to experiment with the medium that night, finishing his first simple basket later that year. In 1998, at the age of 56, he retired from engineering to study bamboo art. Monden’s work honors that of his father by employing his distinctive fallen-pine-needle plaiting style, but it has an energetic voice of its own. His flowing, organic creations, made from hundreds of strips of bamboo, evoke natural imagery.—Sarah Eddy

EPOCHS galleryFRITZ 540 S Guadalupe galleryfritz.com August 30–September 22 Reception August 30, 5–7 pm Frank Buffalo Hyde (Onondaga/Nez Perce) detoured through the worlds of rock ‘n’ roll and writing before settling into a career as a painter. He was raised on the Onondaga reservation, just south of Syracuse, New York, and came to Santa Fe to attend the Institute of American Indian Arts and the Santa Fe Art Institute. “You can’t create for this long and not have an idea where your work is going,” says Buffalo Hyde, having put in 25 years with a paintbrush. “I finally feel like I’m fitting into my own shoes.” His humorous yet hardhitting paintings show that he is very much a 21st-century American with a pop culture sensibility, unafraid to express exasperation with continued cultural appropriation and stereotyping of Indigenous cultures.—LVS Above: Frank Buffalo Hyde, EPOCHS—1979, acrylic on canvas, 48 x 48"

Above: David Ligare, Magna Fide, oil on canvas, 60 x 80"
Three exhibitions open this weekend at LewAllen Galleries. Night and Day showcases recent paintings by David Ligare. His meditative art contemplates nature, social diversity, and ideals of beauty, knowledge, and myth, portraying movement and stillness in turn. The Scholder exhibition shows paintings inspired by dreams, sexuality, the occult, and mythology, created at a time when Scholder was grappling with fame. Tom Palmore shows a series of drawings instead of his usual acrylic paintings. In addition to displaying his technical prowess, his animal portraits express a true reverence for his subject matter. “They’re about other earthlings that we share this planet with . . . and about our relationship with them,” Palmore explains. His show’s opening reception is at LewAllen August 31.—SE August 29, 2019 NOW 13

REFLECTIONS FROM RUSSIA Gallery 901 555 Canyon gallery901.org August 30–September 30 Reception August 30, 5–7 pm
Gallery 901 celebrates the centenary of Fedor Zakharov’s (1919–1994) birth with a retrospective show. Zakharov was born in Ukraine and studied in Moscow. Health issues kept him out of the military, freeing him to continue his studies. Rather than follow the accepted path of painting in the Soviet socialist realist style, showing the joys of life under Stalin’s murderous rule, Zakharov cast his eye back towards a 19th century view of the landscape. He employed loose brushwork and deep color to paint the timeless land and sea of Ukraine.—LVS

A PASSION FOR STONE Thomas-Carole Bowker Fine Art 815D Early St thomas-carolebowkerfineart.com August 30–September 30 Reception August 30, 1–7 pm
Thomas Bowker shows hand-carved stone sculpture from his Peace Series and Pisces Series. Inspired by sculptors such as Auguste Rodin, Henry Moore, and Manuel Neri, Bowker often works in limestone, but also carves his fish, hands, and abstracted shapes from materials like alabaster and Colorado yule marble. “My art is a visual, concrete and elemental language represented in two- and three-dimensional works and is done in a direct fashion, rarely making use of a maquette or preliminary drawings,” Bowker says. “I do not try to restrict or narrow its translation, choosing rather to broaden its meaning and impact to the greatest possible audience. I engage the viewer’s mind to think about their closely held beliefs . . . to challenge their aesthetic understanding and question their own values.”—SE
