let’s take a look

Santa Fe just doesn’t stop. There’s something happening this week, as with most weeks, that will satisfy a wide variety of tastes.

In the art world, we go from an exhibition of plein air works at InArt Gallery to new media exhibitions at Zane Bennett Contemporary Art and El Museo Cultural de Santa Fe. We can take in everything from relatively low-tech painting techniques that have been employed for centuries to very high-tech endeavors that use today’s innovations to create completely new and interesting artwork that wasn’t even possible a few years ago.

On the music scene, we have everything from Bill Hearne and his honky-tonk music at Cowgirl BBQ to some swinging jazz at El Mesón and multimedia offerings in the Railyard. It’s all over the place—and we’re only a few weeks away from the opening of the Santa Fe Opera’s season.

Regardless of your musical or artistic tastes, this town and this weekend have something for you. The only requirement is that you get out there and enjoy it.

12:00–2:00 pm Curators from the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture and the Laboratory of Anthropology will be in the lobby of MIAC to look at your treasures and attempt to identify and interpret artifacts and historic objects. Free and open to the public. Federal and state regulations prohibit the curators from appraising any artifact.

NEXT UP Saturday, June 21st, 1:00–3:00 pm Before you buy your next piece of turquoise, learn what to look for.

Garrick Beck from Natural Stones, Santa Fe, will conduct the seminars. wednesday, June 22nd, 2:00–4:00 pm Turquoise Perspectives and Meaning Lecture Series: Anthony Lovato (Santo Domingo), a world renowned jewelry artist, will discuss the history of turquoise at Santo Domingo and his personal views on the stone.

SHOPPING IN SANTA FE

From the time of the ancient Anazasi, the Santa Fe area has been a trading center. The Santa Fe Trail is synonymous with the romance of the old west, and from the time of New Mexico statehood in 1912, Santa Fe has been a multicultural art center and shoppers’ paradise.

The Yes Men

A still from The Yes Men Fix the World (2009)

The culture-jamming activist duo known as The Yes Men are seriously concerned about climate change, but they have a funny way of showing it. On June 13, the group, created by Jacques Servin and Igor Vamos (who use several aliases and currently go by the names of Andy Bichlbaum and Mike Bonanno, respectively), will perform at the Lensic in an effort to draw attention to global concerns related to warming temperatures and rising sea levels.

The Yes Men have been traveling around the country and raising awareness of pressing social issues for more than a decade. Using tactical media techniques, the duo employs satire, impersonation, and the creation and maintenance of fake websites similar to ones they’re spoofing in an effort to expose the private machinations of powerful entities like the government and big business. The duo has produced two films—The Yes Men (2003) and the award-winning The Yes Men Fix the World (2009)—and their June 13 show at the Lensic, whose proceeds go to the Santa Fe Art Institute’s Thematic Residency Program, will feature excerpts from their new documentary The Yes Men Are Revolting.

“Our journey through climate change starts by talking about the immensity of the problem,” Bonanno says. “We offer uplifting solutions and alternatives and show how easy it can be to change it.”—Emily Van Cleve

Santa Fe’s own version of the bull on Wall Street, Homage to the Burro in Burro Alley, lost its tail, so on June 3 sculptor Taylor Mott and assistant Benjamin Helflin welded reinforcement pieces at the base of a new tail.

“Blame the buskers for the vandalism!” shouted one passerby. “Or aliens,” added Mott.

Mott notes that he’s good friends with the burro’s sculptor, Charles Southard, who created the piece in 1988 to honor Santa Fe’s Taylor Mott forefathers, and who gave final approval of Mott’s new tail, a foot-long chunk of steel. “We had a glass of whiskey together, and I made sure [the new tail] reached his tail standards,” Mott says.

The burro’s hooves were also renovated, with strips of new steel added to parts that had been eroded by weather.

“We’ll grind down the repairs and refinish him with a metal preservative. It’s a great sculpture,” Mott adds. “I’m honored to put this damn tail back on.”—Cristina Olds

Rodney Crowell

b y Charle s C . P oli n g

With its rising chords and Woody Guthrie–esque lyrics, “The Long Journey Home,” on Rodney Crowell’s new album Tarpaper Sky, plays like a baby boomer’s anthem to lost youth, impending old age, and (finally) acceptance.

“We ran off chasing rainbows/’Neath the blue Montana sky/And we selfproclaimed our freedom with a roar,” Crowell sings.

But the chorus counters that rebellion: “The simple life tastes sweeter now/You have no need to roam/Are you ready for the long journey home?”

Look for Crowell to mix songs from Tarpaper Sky with old favorites at his June 17 show at the Lensic, where he’ll perform in an acoustic trio with guitarists Jedd Hughes and Will Kimbrough.

Crowell says he’s been writing the songs on Tarpaper Sky for 20 years. “Frankie Please” recalls Emmylou Harris’s brilliant album Luxury Liner, with its swampy nods to the bayou and to Chuck Berry. As a member of Harris’s Hot Band—an all-star cast that would eventually help define the genre called Americana— Crowell was all over that record. You can find the band on YouTube, with Crowell singing harmony, strumming an acoustic, and sporting a righteous Afro behind Harris while country guitar legend Albert Lee rips through his patented staccato twanging Telecaster riffs. Harris obviously loved covering Crowell’s songs and helped popularize his talents.

His next album, Keys to the Highway, produced two top-five hits., and in 2003 he was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame.

Tarpaper Sky puts all those songwriting chops on full display. It’s got cowboy, swing, rock, Cajun, and country tunes, all carried by Crowell’s clear, unaffected voice. The simple trio format at the Lensic promises to make for a magical musical evening.

Rodeo de Santa Fe the annual tradition celebrates its 65th year

country to be on the roster. Last year’s rodeo drew more than 500 contestants, including world champion cowboys Taos Muncy, Trevor Brazile, and J. W. Harris.

Festivities begin every evening at 6:30 pm with a Mutton Bustin’ contest, during which kids ride sheep and compete to stay astride the longest. Outside the arena, attendees can enjoy a carnival, concessions, and a beer garden, and further entertainment is provided back in the arena by Slim Garner, a rodeo clown from Kansas with 15 years’ worth of experience under his belt.

Before any of the competitions get underway, however, Rodeo de Santa Fe kicks off with a parade at 11 am on Saturday, June 14. Colorful floats make their way down Bishop’s Lodge Road toward the Plaza before heading north on Old Taos Highway to the parade’s staging area on Murales Road.

“Over the four nights, Rodeo de Santa Fe usually draws about 10,000 audience members,” says marketing consultant Michele Daae. Friday and Saturday nights are the most popular, she notes, and on Saturday, June 21, 21-year-old Miriah Borrego Gonzales will be crowned the 2014 Rodeo Queen. For more information, visit rodeodesantafe.org.

ADRIAN WILLS

Rain or shine, every summer Rodeo de Santa Fe, now in its 65th year, presents an exciting lineup of events like bull riding, bareback bronc riding, barrel racing, steer wrestling, and individual and team roping. This year the action, which takes place at the Rodeo Grounds on Rodeo Road, is being held from June 18 through June 21.

Rodeo de Santa Fe is part of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association’s circuit of rodeos. PRCA sanctions rodeos in 37 states and three Canadian provinces. Cowboys earn points at Rodeo de Santa Fe that count at the organization’s championship event, the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas, Nevada.

While Rodeo de Santa Fe’s organizers don’t know who will be competing until the night before an event, they expect some of the top rodeo athletes in the

Nothing warms the cockles of your heart (and belly) like a steaming bowl of rich, flavorsome broth gussied up with a trove of tasty trimmings.

Santa Fean foodies and fans of ethnic cooking were delighted last year when Albuquerque’s Talin Market opened a satellite location in Santa Fe’s burgeoning Luna district. The store is jam-packed with ingredients from around the globe, and many sophisticated shoppers find their way into the cozy Talin Ramen Bar and to the sumptuous broths that are served up from behind a no-frills but welcoming counter.

After you select the types of broth and noodles you want, you then choose from an abundance of toppings. Forget any “less is more” approach, and instead bulk up your broth with simple goodies like bok choy, avocado, bean sprouts, chili, and scallions, or opt for more exotic fare like kimchi, tempura fish cakes, barbecue pork, and beef meatballs.

playing with fire a new show featuring two ceramic artists opens at Santa Fe Clay b y E m i ly Va n C l ev e

Bonnie Lynch, Cocoon Vessel, saggar-fired clay, 15 x 16 x 14"

Serendipity plays a large role in the creation process for ceramic artists Bonnie Lynch and Mary Roehm, who are showing their work together in an exhibition called Finished with Fire at Santa Fe Clay.

“I don’t know how the work will come out until I open the door to the kiln,” says Roehm, who works with porcelain. “I love this—the fact that it’s out of my control, so to speak.”

Lynch notes. “I can’t control the markings on the vessels during the pit-firing,” she adds. “They may be black, gray, or brown.

It’s up to the fire as to what happens to the pieces. I love the unpredictability.”

Finished with Fire contains approximately 20 vessels that represent the artists’ passion for exploring the infinite possibilities of working with ceramic forms. Lynch is inspired by the landscapes that surround her studios in Santa Fe and West Texas. She pit-fires her smaller pieces on her Texas family ranch and fires her larger pieces in a gas kiln at her New Mexico home.

Her process involves weeks of coil-building thin-walled vessels that can be small enough to fit in your hand or stand up to two feet tall.

Roehm, who lives in Vermont, throws a number of vessels and then cuts them up so that she can reassemble them into new ones.

“The final objects are vessels that reflect the human condition,” Roehm says. “They’re a blend of the perfect and the imperfect.”

Laurin McCracken the watercolorist brings a new dimension to everyday objects

PROFILE

by Emi ly Van Cle ve

The colors in Laurin McCracken’s paintings are so rich and vibrant, the forms so detailed, that most viewers are astonished to discover the works are created with watercolors.

“I love the process of working with watercolors,” says the Mississippi native, who lives in Texas. “I felt an affinity for them right from the beginning. It’s as if I was born to paint with watercolors.”

McCracken’s new solo exhibition at Greenberg Fine Art, called Visual Abundance, features more than a dozen watercolor paintings, the majority of which are still lifes of objects like apples, pears, glassware, and flowers.

“The still life artworks of the 16th- and 17th-century Dutch and Flemish painters

have inspired me,” McCracken says. “[Those artists] painted everyday things, what was on the kitchen table.

I do the same thing, using Dutch lighting and strong shadows, but I add a modern twist. I’ll put apples on aluminum foil,” he adds.

Now 72 years old, the awardwinning artist had a long career as an architect and as a marketing executive before turning to painting at age 60.

He took two six-week classes that offered instruction on the basics of painting with watercolors and then taught himself everything else he needed to know. His first paintings were of magnolias, and other subjects quickly followed.

“I see textures, highlights, and reflections in objects that I think other people may not see,” he says.

“What I’m trying to do through my art is help people see everyday things in a new light.”

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: Katherine Chang Liu “Whenever I start a painting, I start out with some words,” says Southern Californian artist Katherine Chang Liu. “I title my work before I paint; it helps to focus my efforts for the piece.” Often Liu’s ideas for her mixed-media work, which incorporates painting, collage, and drawing, are related to her background in science; Liu has a master’s degree in biological and nutritional sciences from UC Berkeley (“Not in art,” she says). Her free-associative abstract pieces have been inspired by everything from the books of Renaissance man Lewis Thomas to a bird skeleton found at the Santa Fe Flea Market. They can be found in collections worldwide and at Chiaroscuro Contemporary Art on Canyon Road.—ET Chiaroscuro Contemporary Art, chiaroscurosantafe.com

In addition to being a sculptor, White, who hails from Illinois and studied sociology and art, is also a painter. He says the commonality in his work is the fourth dimension—what he defines as “movement: real and implied.” In addition, “there seems to be an ongoing dialectic between the world I see as sculpted and the world I see as painted,” he notes. “In my Reflection series of paintings, I’m fascinated by the surface of water that is both transparent and reflective [as well as] constantly in motion.”—ET Mark White, Cypress Lily II, oil on panel, 48 x 48"

Falcons aren’t often seen in New Mexico, especially in towns and cities.

But America’s smallest falcon, the kestrel, can be found not only near people but also throughout the state, in every habitat.

Often misnamed as the sparrow hawk, the American kestrel has a falcon’s long pointed wings. This small, brightly colored bird (its beautiful feathers are blue, rust, black, and white) is one of six species of falcons found in our state.

While some falcons can grow to two feet, the kestrel is only about 7–8 inches in length, with a wingspan of 19–23 inches. Kestrels can commonly be seen hunting from power lines or tree branches, tails bobbing as they overlook open land in search of prey. Kestrels, unlike most falcons, make welcomed backyard visitors because they’re not a significant threat to other birds, preferring to feed on insects (especially grasshoppers) and certain mammals like mice, lizards, and small snakes. (Think of them as your personal pest-control program.)

An interesting characteristic of this falcon is its unusual ability to literally hang in the air, hovering, while looking down for prey. Mouse urine is ultraviolet; the little falcon uses its acute eight-power vision to detect UV light while it simply hangs in wait for the mouse to make a move.

Kestrel nests are most frequently found in tree cavities from woodpecker holes, cliffs, and even old buildings, but you can encourage kestrel breeding by installing and monitoring a nesting box in your own backyard. In fact, the American Kestrel Partnership program is

by Tom Smylie seeking volunteer citizen scientists of all ages to assist with groundbreaking research in their effort to understand why this common falcon is in decline over much of its range.

Learn how to build a nesting box (a great project for your favorite Boy Scout) and how to become a citizen scientist by contacting the Peregrine Fund at peregrinefund.org.

Tom Smylie is a retired wildlife biologist affiliated with the World Center for Birds of Prey.

Kestrel nesting boxes encourage breeding of these beautiful falcons and entice them to visit open backyards.

Tiho Dimitrov Every Monday night, Tiho Dimitrov channels Eric Clapton, Robert Clay, and Carlos Santana at El Farol on Canyon Road. The Bulgarian-born, Santa Fe–raised guitarist, who won the Best Blues Guitar Player Award for New Mexico in the Ernie Ball Guitar Center’s 2012 Battle of the Blues competition and was recently recognized (for the second time) as the best in the blues genre by the New Mexico Music Awards, gets the crowds going with his electric guitar–playing and rockin’, dancefriendly sound. “I like the blues, but I also like mixing it up with more contemporary music,” Dimitrov says. His first CD, which features all original work except one Clapton cover, will be released in mid-July.

In addition to El Farol, you can catch Dimitrov performing at the Santa Fe Bandstand and on the Los Alamos Summer Concert Series. For more information, visit tihodimitrov.com.—Cristina Olds 28
