SANTA FE

From the time of the ancient Anasazi, 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.

publisher’s note

The music scene in Santa Fe is alive and well. I recently had this very discussion with one of my favorite rock guitarists in town, Sean Healen. We agreed that while we’re still missing a large performance venue, we have a plethora of new, intimate venues that are keeping high-quality music alive. We do our very best in NOW to encourage bands and venues to post their activities on our online calendar, and we actively seek information in order to provide the most complete calendar in our market. Don’t forget to look at this calendar at SantaFeanNOW.com for even more up-to-date and exciting listings that might not have made the printing deadlines. The next couple of weeks are proof positive of our varied and extraordinarily talented offerings. Nationally well-known folk rock guitarist Bruce Cockburn performs at the Lensic on November 10. Three days later, also at the Lensic, there’s a fascinating performance by local musician, composer, and artist Donald Rubinstein. Local venues have music for every taste. Pat Malone, my guitar teacher’s hero, brings his high-level jazz to El Mesón—which even has a tango night—while longtime Santa Fe resident and country musician Bill Hearne keeps everyone spinning around La Fonda’s dance floor. A variation of jazz that includes Taiko drumming by the renowned Kenny Endo and his trio will show on Saturday, November 14 at the Scottish Rite Center, while on Monday, November 16, the Santa Fe Great Big Jazz Band plays at Tiny’s. The evenings may be a little cooler, but the local clubs have something just for you, and they’re warm, cozy and ready to thrill. Have fun.

Open Secret: The Rumi Concert

Bringing to life the spirit of the words of 13th-century Persian poet and Sufi mystic Rumi is what Open Secret: The Rumi Concert at the Lensic Performing Arts Center is all about. A production of the nonprofit Storydancer Project, the event is a multidimensional feast of poetry, music, dance, and story. Storydancer founder and interpretive dancer Zuleikha of Santa Fe and Georgia poet/translator Coleman Banks perform the poems of Rumi to the music of New York percussionist Glen Velez and Bay Area vocalist/instrumentalist Jai Uttal. It’s a special collaboration, says Zuleikha, who has worked with all three men in past Rumi concerts. “Rumi’s words should be accessible to everyone,” she adds. “Coleman knows how to translate his poetry in a way that reaches people of all traditions.” Although Zuleikha refers to her dancing as improvisational, she actually practices movements that reflect qualities and emotions found in Rumi’s words long before she steps on stage.—Emily Van Cleve Open Secret: The Rumi Concert, November 14, 7 pm, $30-$100, Lensic Performing Arts Center, 211 W San Francisco, lensic.org performance

Jeff Berg reading: New Mexico Filmmaking at Collected Works

Jeff Berg

b oo k s Jeff Berg has written about movies for 15 years, worked at two indie theaters, presented more than 60 “made in New Mexico” film clip shows, and helped update the state filmography. His recent publication, New Mexico Filmmaking (The History Press, 150 pages, $21.99), covers the history behind movies shot here, dating from the silent era to the present. Berg will speak and give a short reading at a Collected Works book launch on November 17. He hopes to show a few clips of mostly unknown films such as Sons of New Mexico with Gene Autry, which was partially shot in Roswell.

What are some unusual locations that New Mexico represents in movies filmed here? Russia, Canada, Sudan, Pennsylvania, Morocco, Texas (many times), Wyoming (Longmire!), and Mars. What inspired you to write this book? While searching for titles that I could use for screenings that I have presented, it became very apparent that there was a need for something like this. There are more than 800 films and TV episodes . . . shot in part within the state boundaries. It turns out there was hardly anything anywhere about the history of New Mexico movies. November 5, 2015 NOW 3

Can you name three movies that you think people should see that we probably haven’t? Redskin (1929), available on DVD, was partially shot at Acoma Pueblo and around Gallup. Paramount Studios received permission to cut the road that is used today to Acoma to make the film. It was one of the first films to use some color and also one of the first to show First Nations people in a positive light. The McMasters (1970), available on low-budget production DVD, was the first film shot entirely in the state, mostly around Madrid. It was financed by an English studio. Lust in the Dust (1985), available on DVD. Any movie that stars Divine and Tab Hunter is worth seeing. It’s a great Western parody shot around Santa Fe, and it will play at CCA in November. What is NOT included in the book that you wish had been? More detail about why filmmakers came to New Mexico and more details about some of the films that are forgotten or hard to find, such as Naked Youth, shot near Roswell in the ’50s. I also would have liked to include a filmography, but that was cut in favor of the New Mexico movies that evolved from literature.—Cristina Olds Jeff Berg, New Mexico Filmmaking book launch, Nov. 17, 6 pm, free, Collected Works, 202 Galisteo, collectedworksbookstore.com

The Santa Fe Book Arts Group calls their free November 7 event at the Palace of the Governors a flea market, but it’s really an art supply and holiday gift sale. Pro and amateur artists will find an eclectic selection of paints, charcoals, collage materials, photos, and vintage fabrics, as well as handprinted gift and note cards, handmade papers, and journals. “There are always some unusual items like old kimonos from Japan, antique typewriters, and old tin boxes,” says member and event organizer Andrea Cypress. “One year there was a sheep-branding iron for sale. You never know what you’ll find.” The Santa Fe Book Arts Group consists of more than 180 members who enjoy sharing the love and knowledge of all aspects of creating handmade books, including writing, illustration, paper making, and binding. They regularly host exhibits, demonstrations, and workshops that are open to the public.—Emily Van Cleve Santa Fe Book Arts Flea Market, November 7, 10 am–2 pm, free, Meem Room at the Palace of the Governors, Washington Street entrance, santafebag.org

Loving the Alien, a rhinestone-studded stage tribute to Bowie-style glam rock, opens November 5 at Skylight.

Kenneth Ingham

Book Arts Flea Market

Loving the Alien performance Given that Santa Fe is known as “The City Different,” there’s probably no more appropriate place to debut Billy Miles Brooke’s Rocky Horror/Ziggy Stardust-esque rock musical Loving the Alien, which premieres November 5 at Skylight Santa Fe. The play, which imagines the exploits of an otherworldly being who has landed on Earth, includes songs by Brooke, Mark Standley, Jess O. Rodriguez, and Lena Wende, along with dance numbers, a touch of burlesque, and the colorful staging for which Brooke has been known since his 2002 production of Hedwig and the Angry Inch. This is a 21-and-up show, so in spite of the songs, color and costumes, it’s not one for the kids.—Anne Maclachlan

Loving the Alien, November 5, 12, and 19, 8 pm, $15-$45, Skylight Santa Fe, 139 W San Francisco, skylightsantafe.com

Upaya Zen Center

Forrest Fenn book signing: Leon Gaspard: The Call of Distant Places

Joshin Brian Byrnes leads Upaya’s Fall Zen Circle.

A session in Upaya’s meditation hall, or zendo.

Fall Zen Circle at Upaya Zen Center “Modern life leaves us with few opportunities to discover the beauty and refuge of the still point within our lives, which nourishes our activity in the world,” says Upaya Zen Center’s Vice Abbot and leader of the upcoming Fall Zen Circle Joshin Brian Byrnes. “[The Fall Zen Circle] invites each of us to take a backwards step from our busyness and sit in the poetic and boundless field of wisdom and compassion.” Participants will have the opportunity to take part in daily meditation and samu (work) practice and attend dharma talks and seminars related to Zen practice with Upaya residents. There will also be a full day of silent meditation, called zazenkai, led by Priest Genzan Quennell. Upaya was founded in 1992 by Roshi Joan Halifax, who blazed a trail for Buddhist women practitioners and is internationally renowned for her work in end-of-life care. The center constructed a traditional zendo temple in 2001. Joshin Brian Byrnes came to Upaya in 2009 and was ordained by Roshi Joan in 2012. He is deeply committed to socially-engaged Buddhism, especially social change philanthropy, economic justice, gender equity, and child welfare. He regularly volunteers at the local homeless shelter. Upaya—which roughly translates from Sanskrit as “skillful means to enlightenment,”—is located in northern Santa Fe near the Randall Davey Audubon Center, and offers daily meditation, weekly dharma talks, and a number of special events.—Alma Hall Upaya Fall Zen Circle, led by Vice Abbot Joshin Brian Byrnes, November 6–15, $450 for members and $495 for non-members, Upaya Zen Center, 1404 Cerro Gordo Rd, upaya.org

b oo k s “The aura of Gaspard’s magic has not diminished,” writes Forrest Fenn in his new book, Leon Gaspard: The Call of Distant Places. After purchasing the Gaspard estate in 1976, Fenn acquired not only 230 of the artist-adventurer’s paintings, but also gained access to Gaspard’s personal archives, including journal entries, recordings, notes and photos. “The many compelling photos that he took,” Fenn writes, “captured stories that I knew needed to be published.” Born in Russia, Gaspard was trained in art in Paris at the turn of the 20th century. After barely surviving the First World War, the painter moved to Taos, and took sanctuary from his world travels in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. There, he honed his ability to capture the ‘inner truth’ of the subjects that he continued to spend his lifetime searching for—often traversing thousands of miles on horseback into remote areas to find. “As I rummaged through Gaspard’s expansive archive and personal files, his adventures became one with my fantasies.” writes Fenn. “It was almost as though I had been with him on horseback, riding across the Gobi Desert or cutting ice on the Volga River. I was living vicariously through his colorful canvases.” Fenn’s book is illuminated with over 150 color plates of the artist’s original paintings. Like the images, the stories are told with colorful and distinct notes, venturing into the past to chronicle the remarkable journeys of a painter of the world. “As life sang its ballad,” opines the author, “Gaspard was focused on each note.” —Joseph Case

Taberna

eating+ drinking

Seafood is an important part of the menu created by Taberna’s Chef Jose “Kiko” Rodriguez, who grew up in Veracruz, Mexico. Rodriguez enjoys preparing halibut, but it’s a tricky fish to cook. “If you overcook it, its rich flavor is destroyed,” he explains. Halibut en salsa de mole amarillo, a tapa that has been on Taberna’s menu since April, features pan-seared halibut, sautéed local oyster mushrooms, green beans, and a white chocolate mole he learned how to make from his maternal grandmother. “This is a sweet mole dish,” says Rodriguez, who is known for his Nuevo Latino style of cooking, which combines influences from South and Central America and Mexico with his own ideas. “It has golden colors from the mango, yellow bell pepper, and other ingredients in it.” Rodriguez’s philosophy about food is in line with how he feels about the cuisine he appreciates in central Mexico: it should look and taste great.—Emily Van Cleve Taberna, 125 Lincoln, tabernasf.com

Gérard Vachez, War Paint, metallic pigments and acrylic on photographically printed canvas, 17 x 30"

A Frenchman by birth, Gérard Vachez has created and shown work in Paris; the former Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo); Guadeloupe in the French Antilles; southern Florida; and other farflung locales. The artist settled in Santa Fe in 2012. Following a successful show on Canyon Road, he and his wife Cathy chose to open their own gallery in the Railyard District, which had its grand opening October 30. The opening exhibition will continue through the year and features a selection of Vachez’s work, including threedimensional digital renderings printed on canvas, then accented by hand with acrylics. —Dylan Syverson Gérard Vachez Gallery, 418 Montezuma, gerardvachez.com November 5, 2015 NOW 21

STUDIO

reinventing self, soul, and art

It was two decades ago that Angel Wynn’s life changed direction. She had been working as a filmmaker until a serious illness prompted her to reevaluate her life. “I realized I wanted to do something more meaningful,” she says. For her, that meaning came in the form of photodocumenting North American Native cultures. It was, she says, “not just an inspiration” but “more of a drive,” citing Edward Curtis as an influence. She amassed more than 150,000 images of 80-plus tribes, from the Arctic to Florida, which have been used by government agencies, educational organizations, and non-profits. Since moving to New Mexico in 2010, Wynn has been using those photographs as jumping-off points for greater self-expression. “I started putting those images onto art board, then putting wax on, then mixed-media” to create “one-of-a-kind pieces” that draw on her roots as an oil painter. “From there,” she adds, “I started to blossom, and I wanted to get into color.” To that end, Wynn studied Warhol, whose legacy is evident in her bison series. She also finds that Santa Fe feeds her creativity in ways she never anticipated. “This is such a unique community,” she says, “because artists here share—their techniques, their knowledge. They’re always evolving and growing. You don’t want to just keep doing what you’ve been doing; you want to spread your wings.” November 4 through 29, Gallery 901 is hosting a retrospective, Angel Wynn: Past, Present, and Future, showcasing not only her mixed-media encaustic pieces but also Native stock images, photographs using special in-camera effects to explore local ghost stories, and a preview of an emerging project on the Mexican Revolution, among other works. The exhibition is being held at the Encaustic Art Institute, where Wynn will give free artist demonstrations every Saturday in November from 1 to 3 pm.—Eve Tolpa

Working in the studio, artist and photographer Angel Wynn brushes on layers of encaustic wax medium and then fuses with a butane torch.

Chief Sitting Bull, oils, 37 x 16"

Twentieth-century Illustrator and fine art painter Robert Lougheed left an impressive body of work when he died in Santa Fe in 1982. More than 80 of his pieces were collected by Santa Fe art connoisseur David Smith, who was a friend of gallery owner Nedra Matteucci. “David used to come to the gallery all the time,” explains Nedra Matteucci Galleries’ director Dustin Belyeu. “He was extremely fond of Nedra and the gallery. Before he died in 2014, he talked with Nedra about having an exhibit of his Lougheed collection at the gallery. We’ve worked with David’s widow to present a show.” Robert Lougheed: A Brilliant Life in Art features illustrations, plein air watercolors of the Canadian Robert Lougheed, Changing Pastures, Rockies, horse sketches, and oil on masonite, 12 x 16" easel paintings created from 1945 through 1981. “I am especially happy and honored to present such a large and comprehensive collection of Bob Lougheed’s work here in Santa Fe,” says Matteucci. “Santa Fe thoroughly inspired him. He was an artist who deeply respected his natural surroundings and so enjoyed having a community grounded in the arts for teaching and learning. He loved sharing art through friendships with other artists and collectors.” Robert Lougheed, Untitled, oil on board, 13 x 18" Born in Canada and a resident of Santa Fe from the early 1970s until his death, Lougheed illustrated many children’s books, including Mustang: Wild Spirit of the West and San Domingo: The Medicine Hat Stallion by Marguerite Henry and Bell Ranch As I Knew It by George F. Ellis. His illustrations were also published in magazines such as National Geographic and Reader’s Digest. As a fine artist, Lougheed, who was a member of the Cowboy Artists of America, enjoyed painting scenery and animals of the West. In 1970, the United States Postal Service commissioned him to design a 6-cent buffalo stamp, which turned out to be the last 6-cent stamp ever made.—Emily Van Cleve Robert Lougheed: A Brilliant Life in Art, November 14–December 31, opening reception November 14, 2–4 pm, Nedra Matteucci Galleries, 1075 Paseo de Peralta, matteucci.com

Rena Paradis

the art of daily life

“This is home,” says artist Rena Paradis, who has lived in Santa Fe since 1967 and has sold her paintings and ceramics for nearly as long. The daughter of a painter and carver mother and a master woodworker and craftsman father, Paradis says she’s a painter first. Most of the works she creates in her El Dorado studio are acrylic scenarios of Native Americans and Hispanics in daily life. Paradis sells her figurines and holiday angel wall hangings (lower middle photo) inexpensively from her website and studio. “My main interest is having my work in people’s homes, and I love selling to local people,” says Paradis. “I also have clients all over the country who . . . have been collecting my work for 30 or more years.” —Cristina Olds renadesantafe.com

Of her acrylic painting Santa Fe Fanta Se, Paradis says, “I wanted to do something with lots of color from my imagination rather than my usual situational, fairly realistic subjects. Its purpose is to dance on the wall with color.”

It takes Paradis 4–6 hours to paint one figurine, depending on its level of detail.

Paradis removes a highly vitrified, artist-quality plaster figurine from a mold made by Brett Chomer, a Santa Fean mold maker and craftsman.

This rough pencil sketch became Keep Warm, the painting at the far lower left.

STEPHEN LANG

“The concept for the figurine collection is a play yard for Native children, not unlike one I visited on the Navajo reservation,” says Paradis. Each figurine is a limited edition and is individually numbered.

Jody Sunshine, Our Virgin of Bensonhurst, acrylic on board, 25 x 33"

Jody Sunshine: Tales from the Middle Class, Freeform Art Space, 1619 C de Baca Ln, freeformartspace.com, November 6–28, reception November 6, 5–8 pm Jody Sunshine’s artistic evolution took place amid the colorful zeitgeist of 1950s and ’60s Manhattan, but her idiosyncratic work is actually a reflection of her suburban Queens roots. Her Sunshine World—a conceptual realm populated by tormented housewives, vaguely sinister bunnies, and other surreal characters—assembles clichés of domestic Americana in a frantic, psychedelic style, manifested in media ranging from collage to white-bread (literally) sculpture. Though Sunshine has made Santa Fe her home since 1995, Tales from the Middle Class will be her in-town solo debut; the exhibition kicks off at Freeform Art Space with a November 6 reception.—Dylan Syverson

Holiday Storyteller Exhibit, Adobe Gallery, 221 Canyon, adobegallery.com, November 13–January 4 Helen Cordero began experimenting with traditional pottery styles as an adult. Unhappy with her results, she listened to advice from her cousin, who suggested that she try creating clay figures instead. Cordero, using local clays from just south of Santa Fe, went on to sculpt her Storytellers series. Spirituality is in the fine details of her handmade pottery, depicting the oral tradition of elders passing down the Pueblo culture to children. For the holiday season, Adobe Gallery will be showing Cordero’s one-of-a-kind figurines as well as Storytellers created by more than two dozen other Cochiti Pueblo artisans.—Joseph Case

Christian Haub, Float for Althea Gibson, cast acrylic, 24 x 26 x 3"

Newer artists experimenting with industrial textures like the reflective aluminum sign material in Jack Slentz’s Blue Tube, the digital projection blend in Matthew Kluber’s No Place Like Utopia, and the wildly colorful cast acrylic in Float for Gilberto Perez by Christian Haub create a new perspective, so to speak, on the op-art experience. The show includes pieces created within the past 30 years by several artists from the original Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) Op-Art exhibit. The gallery will host its Art Matters talk on October 3 at 2 pm.—AM

Re-Invention, City of Mud, 1114A Hickox, cityofmud.com, through December 15 Featuring over a half-dozen artists, including Jamie Chase, Sandy Brown, Brett Chomer, Paul Shapiro, and Gina Telcocci, Re-Invention will be the first exhibition hosted by City of Mud, a new collaborative art space west of the Railyard. “Our fall show is . . . just a touch dark and decadent, and showcases abstraction in both two and three dimensions,” says featured artist and Curator Sasha Pyle. “The show is called Re-Invention because we reinvented the building, ourselves, and how art can be displayed.” The space aims to create a unique atmosphere: alongside art created with various traditional media, it will showcase vintage found objects from industrial curiosities to home décor. The name “City of Mud” can be read to suggest the impermanent nature of created works and their creators, or to note Santa Fe’s “kinship with other parts of the world that are blessed with indigenous architecture and design, where buildings are created out of the earth.”—DS Joseph Griffo, Fragmented Fish, mixed media, 15 x 15” November 5, 5, 2015 2015 NOW NOW 25 25 November

everything and the Kitchen Sink

Jono Manson ran Kitchen Sink Studios for over twenty years in Chupadero. His new space recently opened under the same name in north Santa Fe’s former Stepbridge Studios building.

IN EARLY NOVEMBER, musician and producer Jono Manson will reopen one of Santa Fe’s premier recording studios. Manson has updated the facility, once called Stepbridge Studios, and renamed it Kitchen Sink Studios after his storied previous space north of town. “This studio is really a world-class room,” says Manson. “At one point, in its heyday, it was a destination for artists and producers from all over the world, and I want to put it back on the map.” He’s succeeding; John Popper, best known as the lead man of Blues Traveler, booked the studio for two months in preparation for a recent album. Manson started working in music studios in his native New York in the 1970s. He eventually broke out as a musician and songwriter, playing to crowds at venues as large as Madison Square Garden. In 1992, he moved to New Mexico to kick off another phase of his musical career, and for two decades, operated Kitchen Sink Studios out of Chupadero. There, he drew clients from far-flung places like Italy, England, Germany, France and Pakistan. “My business draws both local and regional clientele as well as people from other parts of the country and other parts of the world. I suspect that equation will continue here,” he says. The new Santa Fe location puts Manson and his studio in the heart of the city and gives him a state-of-the-art space to entice musicians, since Manson and his team have recently renovated all of the spaces. Kitchen Sink has two isolation rooms and a cavernous central tracking room; Manson has even thrown in the capacity to record in analog, because many modern musicians prefer the texture and feel of old-school tape. The new studio already has a number of musicians booked. Manson is also in talks to host a Santa Fe-based educator who will use the studio for recitals. And, a local organization called “Lifesongs” is set to record songs based on the stories of people at local hospices.—Jason Strykowski jonomanson.com/kitchen-sink-studios

Manson offers tracking in both digital and analog media, and provides ample and varied recording space including two isolation rooms.

As a fan of Joan Armatrading since my late-’80s college days, I was thrilled to see her rock out on stage at The Lensic during the 203rd show of her last major tour. After 42 years of performing, the blues/pop/rock star says she will never retire, but that she is tired. Dressed all in black and wearing sandals, Armatrading humbly spoke to the crowd between hits like “Down to Zero,” “Willow,” and “The Weakness in Me.” She teased the audience, saying she knew most of us were there to hear “Love and Affection” and that to make this tour unique, she wouldn’t be playing it. We laughed nervously, happy to have her play anything after hearing her joke that the first song would be her last for the night. She was armed with three electric guitars and a keyboard—but no band—on this solo tour. At one point, Armatrading narrated a retrospective slideshow featuring numerous stars like Supertramp, for whom she opened on her first big tour, and Elton John, who played keyboards on “Stronger Love.” The pioneering UK rocker shared portraits of her younger self taken by Annie Leibovitz and Robert Mapplethorpe, and noted some milestones in her offstage life, such as completing an MBE degree, running the New York Marathon at age 57, and meeting Nelson Mandela in South Africa. Armatrading’s resonant vocals were mighty and smooth, nearly equal to the beloved sound we’d come to hear—with just a few breathy high notes (forgivable now that she’s 64). And she did play “Love and Affection” after all, but you knew that.—Cristina Olds

Concorso on the Plaza 2015

MARK STEVEN SHEPHERD

We miss summer already, with its art festivals, Indian Market, bandstand concerts—and the amazing collection of more than 100 shiny vintage cars exhibited in a three-day event known as the Santa Fe Concorso. Whether you’re a collector, a driver or a mere pedestrian on Santa Fe’s winding streets, you can’t fail to be impressed by the loving care that goes into these showpiece vehicles that span decades of history. Shades of Al Capone, Henry Ford and Route 66! Here’s a look back at the beauties of Concorso 2015.—Anne Maclachlan
