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.

PUBLISHER’S NOTE

|
THANK YOU, SANTA FE. You have picked up, read, and embraced Santa Fean NOW to a degree that we never would have imagined. Many organizations, like Albuquerque Journal North, have jumped on board and partnered with us to take NOW to an even higher level. (You’ll see further evidence of such things come October.) In the rough-and-tumble world of Santa Fe advertising, advertisers have warmly embraced NOW, thereby allowing us to provide this weekly magazine to the community for free. This issue, you might notice, is the thickest one yet, thanks to the support of our advertisers, who see the value and impact of partnering with us, especially during the busiest weekend of the year. More than anyone, however, we thank you, the readers. Any magazine is only as good as the readers who pick it up and put it to use. It’s clear that Santa Fe was hungry for a concise, free publication that provided a comprehensive listing of all the great art, music, and cultural happenings within our community. You’ve eaten it up. Your support has fueled our enthusiasm, so keep an eye on us. We’re only getting started.

After John Torres-Nez, Paula Rivera, and Tailinh Agoyo left their positions last spring with the Southwestern Association for Indian Arts (SWAIA), which runs Santa Fe’s Indigenous Fine annual Indian Market, they joined forces and began planning the Art Market first annual Indigenous Fine Art Market (IFAM). The threeday event, which is being held in the Railyard from August 21 through August 23, bills itself as “a celebration of Native art and the cultures that inspire it,” and as an opportunity that “will create Kevin Red Star, Crow Tipi 2005 a greater understanding of the (detail), acrylic complexity and beauty of Native on canvas, American culture and people as 40 x 60" we evolve and exist today.” “Just like at Indian Market, all work [in IFAM] has to be handmade by the artists,” says Torres-Nez, IFAM’s president. “Everyone was juried in unless they’d applied to be part of Indian Market and were already juried in by SWAIA,” he adds. IFAM organizers (from left) Paula Rivera, director of program operations; John Torres-Nez, president; and Tailinh Agoyo, “Approximately 40 director of marketing and creative services percent of our artists have shown their work at Indian Market.” More than 300 artists from as far away as Canada and Hawaii are participating in IFAM, with notable names including painters Kevin Red Star (Crow) and Farrell Cockrum (Blackfeet Nation) and ceramic artist Natasha Smoke Santiago (Mohawk). Red Star and painter George Alexander (Muscogee) are part of a kickoff event at the Farmers Market Pavilion called Red Star/Rising Star Live Paint, during which the artists paint side by side for two hours while DJ Brian Frejo provides music. Red Star’s finished painting will be raffled off, with proceeds going to IFAM’s various programs. Other offerings include pop-up performances by storytellers, drummers, magicians, and dancers; main-stage performances by bands and dance troupes; and a fashion show. “I like the diversity of work in [IFAM],” says Torres-Nez. “We have many young artists participating; a few are current students at IAIA. These young people are doing really interesting things. We’re not offering awards this year, but the artists don’t mind. They just want to show their work.”—Emily Van Cleve Indigenous Fine Art Market, August 21–August 23, 10 am–5 pm, Santa Fe Railyard, indigefam.org 6

Dancing Earth at Skylight On Sunday, August 24, 25 performers, including dancers and musicians, will help founder and director Rulan Tangen celebrate the 10th anniversary of Dancing Earth—Indigenous Contemporary Dance Creations with a special presentation at Skylight in downtown Rulan Tangen, Santa Fe. founder of Dancing Earth—Indigenous “This is the Contemporary first time this Dance Creations particular group of interdisciplinary artists has gotten together,” Tangen says. “We have artists from 12 different countries representing 11 First Nations.” In Origi-Nation: Roots and Seeds, performers “honor indigenous wisdom for living on earth through the themes of seeds, roots, plants, and foods, and our collective relationship with sun, water, air, and earth,” the nonprofit says in a statement. Dances, musical performances, and installation pieces take place in an outdoor, street-side courtyard and on the club’s balcony. “Activity in the balcony represents the ancestral spirit and the sky realm, and the main level represents the earth or subterranean level,” says Tangen, whom Dance Magazine designated as one of its “25 to watch” in 2007. “Soloists may be dancing in both of those areas at the same time,” she notes. Origi-Nation is followed by a celebratory dance party courtesy of DJ Sol and guest DJs. Anyone with a ticket to the performance can also attend the party. Proceeds from the evening’s events benefit Dancing Earth’s scholarship fund.—Emily Van Cleve DANIEL QUAT PHOTOGRAPHY

MARVEL ENTERTAINMENT
“I am Groot” is right The most wondrous of many wonderful oddities in Guardians of the Galaxy may be the performance of Vin Diesel as Groot, one of the movie’s titular characters. He has one line, repeated throughout the film: “I am Groot.” Yet it means different things at different moments, and coupled with Groot’s innocent sweetness (he’s usually smiling) and effectiveness at battling bad guys (he’s a bruiser), a great superhero is crafted from voice work and digital rendering. Groot is a plant-man, like a tree with a face. He’s also a delight. The Bradley Cooper–voiced Rocket Raccoon is the flashiest member of this new superhero franchise. A tortured history is hinted at, and past pain is probably what fuels his scrappily antagonistic attitude. Rocket loves shooting, fighting, and pranking, and he’s also a sensitive drunk. The Phantom Menace may be one of cinema history’s brownest stains, but George Lucas was onto something when he inserted obnoxious cartoon rabbit-thing Jar Jar Binks in among his actors—dynamic, heroic characters
Zoe Saldana and Benicio Del Toro in Guardians of the Galaxy
are being created on computers now, and Groot and Rocket may be the best we’ve met yet. Guardians of the Galaxy is a monster hit despite the obscurity of its source material—comic books not nearly as well known as The Avengers or X-Men. The secret to its success is easily discerned: It’s truly fun. The characters, including three Guardians played by actual humans, are funny and relatable. Peter Quill, aka Star-Lord (played by Chris Pratt), is the team’s leader, and he’s a Han Solo–esque swashbuckling space outlaw with fantastic taste in music. None of these Guardians (there’s also Drax, whose skin is blue, and Gamora, whose skin is green) is a traditional good guy like Captain America or Spider-Man. Each has a bad side. But the villain they fight in the film is unambiguously evil (and cool-looking), and over the course of their action-packed adventure the Guardians become friends organically. How could they not? They’re damaged weirdoes and they’re perfect for each other. “I am Groot?” Exactly.—Phil Parker
virtual relief Got some worries you want to see go up in smoke but can’t make it to Fort Marcy Park on Friday, August 29, to drop them into the “gloom box” at the annual burning of Zozobra (aka Old Man Gloom)? For the first time in Zozobra’s 90-year history, relief is just a click away at santafe.org, where you’ll find an interactive worry burner. Simply enter your troubles into the dialog box that appears on your screen, and helpful elves will print them out and stuff them into Old Man Gloom come burning time. The annual torching of the highly flammable 50-foot-tall effigy—which is managed by the Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe and raises money for college scholarships and various youth programs— is accompanied by much fanfare, including fireworks, dancing, and amplified sound effects from the doomed Zozobra himself. Tradition holds that as Zozobra goes up in flames, so too do your worries, so log on to santafe.org to unburden yourself a bit and experience the decades-old ceremony from wherever you may find yourself this year.—Cristina Olds Burning of Zozobra, August 29, 7 pm, $10, Fort Marcy Park, Bishop’s Lodge Road, santafe.org

Galisteo Bistro
DOUGLAS MERRIAM
The airy Triple Berry Semifreddo seasonal dessert at Galisteo Bistro is a satisfying conclusion to a summer meal. “It’s like an extra light ice cream,” says Executive Chef Tomas Allan Keller. “It’s my favorite dessert.” A classic “frozen but not solid” dish, the semifreddo (which means “half-cold” in Italian) features a blend of blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and egg custard. “There’s no milk or cream, but it still has a strangely rich flavor,” Keller says. Between the scoops of frosty custard are dollops of whipped cream flavored with triple sec, Amaretto, and essence of lavender. Keller decoratively drizzles the plate with raspberry and mango coulises—simple sauces made from fresh fruit, sugar, and an acid like lemon or orange juice—and, as a final touch, adds a dash of chopped mint on top that “opens the flavors and brightens up your palate, especially if you drank red wine or had a spicy dinner.”—Cristina Olds Galisteo Bistro, 227 Galisteo, galisteobistro.com

openings | reviews | artists No, this image isn’t Photoshopped—Brad Wilson really does photograph all his wild subjects inside a studio. In celebration of his new photo book Wild Life, Wilson is holding a show called Avian: Selected Works from the Affinity Series at photoeye Bookstore + Project Space (August 22–October 11, reception and book signing August 22, 5–7 pm, 376 Garcia, Ste A, photoeye.com). Eerily human and intensely intimate in their expressions, a crocodile, a cougar, and even a kangaroo posed for Wilson’s book. “It’s impossible to stand a few feet away from a tiger or a chimpanzee or an elephant and remain unmoved,” Wilson says. “There’s something primal about the experience that resonates with you long after the animal has left.”

The Power of a Woman Nocona Burgess’s new show at Giacobbe-Fritz Fine Art
by Emily Va n C le ve
“WHO ARE THESE WOMEN,” Comanche painter Nocona Burgess often wonders when he looks at old photographs of Native American warriors and heads of families pictured with their wives and children. “Most of these photos only have the names of the men on [them], but women have been just as important as men and have served as the backbone of Native society,” he says. “Among the Comanche, the men were often out hunting, trading, and defending the tribe. Children learned so much from their grandmothers and mothers.” To honor Native women, Burgess, the great-great grandson of Chief Quanah Parker, decided to depict Hopi in Coral Adobe, acrylic on canvas, 30 x 24"
them in a series of acrylic portraits. The Power of a Woman, which opens on August 22 at Giacobbe-Fritz Fine Art, features 16 paintings (based on images in old photographs) of women who lived from the 1870s through the 1930s. Each of Burgess’s subjects—which include Comanche, Crow, Apache, and Lakota women—is portrayed alone to project her strength and dignity. “In the end, we’re all individuals,” Burgess says. “Every painting is a story of that particular person.” While women have been the subject of some of Burgess’s paintings in the past, this is the artist’s first body of work that focuses on them exclusively. “I did a lot of research to try to find out the names of the women I painted,” Burgess says. “I found out most of their names, but not all of them.” As part of the show’s opening reception, Burgess takes part in a meet-andgreet session. He also presents a lecture about his work, sharing information gathered from his research. A goal of the show, he notes, is to encourage a dialogue about the historical importance of women within Native cultures. Nocona Burgess: The Power of a Woman, August 22–September 7, reception August 22, 5–7 pm, meet-and-greet session and lecture 4:15 pm, Giacobbe-Fritz Fine Art, 702 Canyon, giacobbefritz.com Samohpu-Sister, acrylic on canvas, 48 x 30" 28

Modern Illusions in Native American Art a new group show at Winterowd Fine Art by Ash le y M. Big ge rs
Wendy Red Star, White Squaw #10, archival pigment print, 11 x 18"
DURING A WEEK when Santa Fe’s streets overflow with the best traditional Native art in the country, Winterowd Fine Art is turning tack with a show focused on top contemporary creations. It’s the second such show at Winterowd. “Last year, we barely scratched the surface. There’s so much out there that’s exciting and engaging,” says gallery owner Karla Winterowd. This year’s exhibition features 33 works by 11 artists, many of whom didn’t exhibit last year, including Marla Allison and Wendy Red Star. Winterowd and Santa Fe artist Silvester Hustito (Zuni Pueblo) co-curated the show, looking for visually engaging works in a variety of mediums that speak to the show’s theme and title, Modern Illusions in Native American Art. “We asked artists to mine the illusions of their culture. Not just techniques that related to visual imagery, such as mirage and distortion, but also icons, myths, and stories,” says Winterowd. Marla Allison (Laguna Pueblo) painted a series called The Animal Within, which she describes as daydreams about humans’ animalistic qualities. In one vision, a nude woman’s hips seem swathed in a billowing cloth, but then that cloth transforms into the form of a snarling wolf. Other works are more overtly political, such as Jamison Chas Banks’s contribution Fort Pitt Parley, which speaks to a biological warfare event in which English soldiers gave small pox–ridden blankets to the Odawa tribe, which was under the leadership of Chief Pontiac at the time. Wendy Red Star’s submissions expose and dismantle cultural stereotypes as she reimagines the book covers from E. J. Hunter’s White Squaw series. “A lot of the works are very powerful and visually stunning. It’s only when you look closely that you see they’re [also] very deep and have a lot of meaning,” says Hustito. The artist’s own pieces in the show include a hand-built TV box with an image of Sesame Street’s Oscar the Grouch, a character that, as a child, Hustito believed was real—just as he believed katsinas were real. “These are artists who are responding to the current day,” says Winterowd. “It’s some of the most exciting work being done today within the art world. And it doesn’t have to be seen as ‘Native.’ They’re just artists—on the cutting edge of what’s new and different.” Modern Illusions in Native American Art, August 17–August 31, reception August 22, 5–8 pm, Winterowd Fine Art, 701 Canyon, fineartsantafe.com August 21, 2014 NOW

Steven Paul Judd, Don’t Label Me, acrylic on canvas, 18 x 20"
Prolific visual artist Steven Paul Judd is countering prevailing stereotypes of American Indians. His work is filled with humor, integrating pop culture and mass-media images of, say, the Hulk, Batman, or alien spaceships with Native faces. His popular works include his paintings Hopi, which is a play on Shepard Fairey’s famous 2008 Hope poster of Barack Obama, and Lego My Land, featuring two Lego figures in Native dress. The Kiowa/Choctaw artist notes that he’s always contemplating the kinds of images he thinks go unrepresented. “I just make what I want to see,” he says. “I can’t find it, so I make it.” A member of the Writers Guild of America, Judd was a staff writer for the Disney XD series Zeke and Luther, and he’s produced or co-produced several projects, including the 2006 PBS documentary Silent Thunder, about the late horse tamer Stanford Addison. Judd is currently directing a “tough guy antihero” film called Ronnie BoDean, starring Wes Studi and executive produced by Chris Eyre, and he’s about to release a collection of short stories called The Last Powwow, which he co-wrote with Thomas Yeahpau and says is some of the best writing he’s ever done.—Zélie Pollon Zane Bennett Contemporary Art, zanebennettgallery.com August 21, 2014 NOW

Santa Fe artist, architect, and designated Living Treasure William Lumpkins designed this double-walled adobe home on five acres overlooking St. John’s College in the late 1970s. It’s been home to local residents as well as to the producer of the TV shows L.A. Law; NYPD Blue; and Doogie Howser, M.D. The main door opens into an entry hall that features a chandelier and a soaring ceiling. Brick floors are found throughout the home, which has a formal dining room, a family room, a living room, an office, and a sunroom. The master bedroom is on the main level, while a number of smaller rooms as well as guest bedrooms are upstairs. A separate and private casita with an adobe fireplace is nestled amid the trees close to the home.
