Last weekend in Santa Fe was terrific, but this one is going to thrill you in new ways. For a start, the equestrian event HIPICO kicks off in an absolutely beautiful, lush valley west of the airport. Both the highly trained horses and their riders are some of the top athletes in the United States, and they are here to compete for prizes in equestrian skills. It’s beautiful and thrilling to see. In keeping with the horse theme, The Art of the Horse, an exhibition of oil paintings by Gail Gash Taylor and saddles by Lisa and Loren Skyhorse, debuts at Manitou’s Canyon Road gallery on Friday night. Their work will enhance your appreciation of these magnificent animals. All day Saturday, right behind the Eldorado Hotel, the Johnson Street Experience is happening. Gallery owner Heidi Loewen tells me the band is fantastic. The O’Keeffe Museum is among the interesting galleries and shops on Johnson Street, and there is plenty to explore. A reminder: the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival has kicked off its season with an amazing array of performances. These are top national and international musicians who perform every summer in our community. Be sure to check out the schedule at their website or on the NOW calendar. It’s going to be another great weekend in Santa Fe.

HIPICO Santa Fe’s third season As equestrian enthuasists know, the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Kentucky, is the equine capital of the world. The City Different, however, has carved out its own niche in the competitive horse world with HIPICO Santa Fe, a 138-acre gem of a Southwestern equestrian facility founded by native New Mexicans Brian Gonzales and Guy McElvain. HIPICO’s third full season—operating under the theme History of the Horse—will focus on, of course, the history of horses, as well as horse sports, riding equipment, the history of HIPICO’s land, and other bits of information that horse experts and non-experts alike will find interesting. Last year’s theme, Art of the Horse, was exceptionally well received and showcased many New Mexico artists in the printed program and the onsite art tent. From July 19 through August 13, HIPICO’s arenas will be filled with riders facing off in various hunter and jumper classes. As a nationally A-rated show, the Santa Fe Summer Series features top equestrians, mostly from the Southwest. The competitors will vie for more than $400,000 in prize money over four weeks. Highlights include the weekly welcome stakes every Friday at noon; the $30,000 Variable Grand Prix, July 23; the Sandia BMW/MINI Cooper Ride-&-Drive Challenge, July 29; the $10,000 USHJA International Hunter Derby, August 4; and, of course, the $40,000 Grand Prix de Santa Fe, benefiting local and regional charities, August 13 at 1 pm. Beyond riding and ribbons, HIPICO offers free admission, shaded viewing areas, and much e v ent
more—art, fashion, live music, food trucks, beer and wine garden, an elegant Sunday brunch in the VIP lounge, and the opportunity for a meet and greet with these world-class equine and human athletes. Aside from the excitement of the summer competition and events, HIPICO brings a massive economic boost to Santa Fe—to the tune of a projected $12–15 million this year alone. HIPICO strives to be not only a hotspot for national and international equestrian competition, but also to operate under the umbrella of sustainability and togetherness for the entire New Mexico horse community. Their current and three-to-five year plans are impressive—with hopes to open the facility for day use, for a small fee, to riders of all disciplines (with access to public Bureau of Land Management land and 4.5 million acres of trails), and to offer western riders equally prestigious competitions, including reining, cutting, western pleasure, and more. If you haven’t been out to HIPICO simply because you aren’t sure horses are your thing, give it a try. Plans are also in the works to host various festivals—everything from antiques to music, to an autumn pumpkin patch, powwows, weddings, and other events for locals and visitors. Stop by and see what it’s all about—you’ll be glad you did.—Amanda Jackson Santa Fe Summer Series 2017, July 19–23 and 26–30; August 2–6 and 9–13, 8 am–5 pm, HIPICO Santa Fe, 100 S Polo Dr, hipicosantafe.com July 20, 2017 NOW 1

Santa Fe Opera premiere: The (R)evolution of Steve Jobs
THE FENCE 2017 For a second year, Santa Fe is among the cities participating in the outdoor photography exhibit THE FENCE. Forty national and nine local photographers were chosen to participate in the project, which features images printed on large white banners and affixed to the fence along the Railyard bicycle path. The work is organized into seven themes: home, streets, people, creatures, nature, play, and food. The local photographers documented subjects from falconry to Cuba to slaughterhouses. Gabriella Marks is president of the New Mexico chapter of the American Society of Media Photographers (AMSP), which brought THE FENCE to Santa Fe. She says of the exhibit, “The images are meant to inspire and educate in the open air of a public art project. This is a gallery that is always free, never closed, and meant to encourage curiosity and conversation about the world around us.” As a fundraiser for THE FENCE, AMSP is hosting a seminar on Saturday morning. Taught by renowned photographer Nevada Wier, the workshop will delve into developing technical, practical, and creative aspects of travel photography to obtain images that surpass the usual clichéd travel photos. —Lisa Van Sickle exhibition

THE FENCE 2017, July 22–November 4, opening reception July 22, 5–8 pm, free, Railyard Park Community Room, 740 Cerrillos, thefencenm.org Creativity and Travel Photography with Nevada Wier, July 22, 9 am–1 pm, $85, $50 AMSP members, Tipton Hall, Santa Fe University of Art and Design 1600 St. Michael’s, bit.ly/AMSP-Creative-Travel Leo Kottke (pictured) and John Gorka take the stage at the Lensic on Saturday, guitars in hand.
The Santa Fe Opera’s latest premiere encompasses light and darkness as it explores the biography of the late Steve Jobs. The (R)evolution of Steve Jobs neither sanctifies nor demonizes the legendary Apple cofounder. Instead, the three-dimensional Jobs story is told against a backdrop of simplicity, as the libretto and music weave Jobs’s complex moodiness with his interest in the lines of Japanese philosophy. Mason Bates’s score does the same; from full orchestration in a modern, industrial theme to a solo acoustic guitar piece, flavored by the soft Japanese influences that drew Jobs away from the hard overdrive of his daily life. Baritone Edward Parks sings Steve Jobs; mezzo-soprano Sasha Cooke is Laurene Powell Jobs; and bass Wei Wu portrays Sōōtōō Zen priest Kôbun Chino Otogawa. Librettist Mark Campbell’s impressive awards list includes a Pulitzer Prize in Music for 2012’s Silent Night.—Anne Maclachlan P E R F O R M A NC E

Leo Kottke and John Gorka P E R F O R M A NC E Saturday night brings two singer-guitarists to The Lensic. Leo Kottke, a 6- and 12-string fingerpicking wizard whose first album was released in 1969, and John Gorka, whose songs have been recorded by the likes of Nanci Griffith and Mary Chapin Carpenter, will perform separately and together. Kottke’s repertoire ranges from blues to jazz to folk, with charmingly off-kilter stories punctuating the songs. Gorka, part of the New Folk Movement, is known equally for his wit, his songwriting skill, and his baritone voice. They promise to deliver an unforgettable evening.—LVS

Guilloume’s Contemporary Hispanic Market Preview Pippin Contemporary pippincontemporary.com July 26–August 8 Reception July 28, 5–7 pm
Guilloume, Becoming One, bronze, 22 x 10 x 8"
Emphasizing silhouette and spherical forms, Guilloume sculpts figurative works with stylized, sleek forms and vivid patinas. Describing his work as being in the Bolismo style (the artist’s translation of balls), the rounded profiles of the people he creates suggest narrative in subtle, aesthetic ways, with clustered figures posed in harmonious compositions. The Colombian-born artist now calls New Mexico home. His bronze sculptures and paintings have become a coveted part of Santa Fe’s Contemporary Hispanic Market, where he is now showing for his 23rd year. Pippin Contemporary is hosting an exhibit of Guilloume’s latest series of bronze sculptures and wall reliefs during this time.—Stephanie Love

Edward Gonzales: One Man Show July 24–August 14, reception July 28, 5–7 pm Acosta Strong Fine Art, acostastrong.com Edward Gonzales paints realistic scenes of Hispanic life in New Mexico. Rendered in vibrant colors, his works are richly expressive and feature subjects placed in compelling compositions. Fathers and sons with fattened pigs, a woman and her dog by an horno, a fruit harvester, women with ristras, mountainous landscapes, churches, and even still lifes are all represented in his signature style. Gonzales describes his working method as “pouring energy, movement, and color into my paintings.” Coinciding with the celebrations of Spanish Market and Contemporary Hispanic Market, Gonzales will present new works at Acosta Strong Fine Art. Gonzales, himself the founder of Santa Fe’s Contemporary Hispanic Market in 1989, was the 2013 recipient of the Governor’s award for excellence in the arts.—Amanda Jackson

Healing Powers July 21–August 3 Reception July 21, 5–7 pm The Worrell Gallery, worrellgallery.com With a career spanning more than 35 years, Bill Worrell has found success as a sculptor and painter. Executed in various media, his works are personal, copyrighted interpretations of ancient pictographs found along the convergence of the Lower Pecos River and the Middle Rio Grande, on the border of Texas and Mexico. With a zest for the elements around him and a lifelong passion for archeology, Worrell maintains two studios—one in the Texas Hill Country and one in Santa Fe. Worrell has shown at Worrell Gallery since 2011, though he has exhibited his works in other Santa Fe galleries since 1986.—AJ

Above: Marlys Mallett and Michael Redhawk, A Royal Affair, acrylic paint, resin, and amethyst on board, 24 x 24"
Stone Creations Canyon Road Contemporary 403 Canyon, canyoncontemporary.com July 21–30, reception July 21, 5–7 pm Marlys Mallett and Michael Redhawk show a new group of wall hangings from their Stone Creations series. Left to their own devices, Mallett creates abstract paintings while Redhawk is a jeweler who also paints landscapes. Wedding their approaches, Redhawk starts with a stone—among them, petrified wood, amethyst, agate, or ammonite—then cuts and mounts it on board. Mallet goes next, surrounding the irregularly shaped minerals with acrylic paint to enlarge and enhance the shapes, colors, and textures found within. On their completion, it’s difficult to discern where the work of Mother Nature and Redhawk leaves off and Mallet’s additions begin. This marriage of artists and techniques results in beautiful, unique pieces.—Lisa Van Sickle
Above: Cheri Christensen, Cheri Christensen Party Girls, oil on board, 6 x 12" McLarry Fine Art 225 Canyon mclarryfineart.com July 21–August 4 Reception July 21, 5–7 pm What do Russian Impressionist Sergei Bongart and chickens have in common? Cheri Christensen. Her teacher studied with the Russian-born master Bongart, whose loose brushwork is evident in Christensen’s paintings. As for the poultry, Christensen was raised in rural Washington, where her grandfather owned a ranch. Animals— chickens, ducks, and cows—form her subject matter, and even an armadillo makes an appearance. The animals are often backlit by a low sun, so the light forms a glowing halo around the outline of a newly hatched chick or plays up the shape of a cow’s ear. Christensen’s animals are not anthropomorphized. They don’t have a story to tell or a lesson to impart to the viewer. They become vehicles for Christensen’s adept drawing, her beautiful color sense, and her skillful handling of oil paint.—LVS
Smoke-fired Porcelain Sculpture With 22-kt Gold Heidi Loewen Porcelain Gallery and School 315 Johnson heidiloewen.com July 21–August 25 Opening receptions July 21, 5–8 pm and July 22, 10 am–5 pm Porcelain is Heidi Loewen’s sculptural canvas. Loewen, an instructor as well as an artist, smokes her work with a variety of natural, organic elements such as pine needles and combustible “spices,” including orange peel, all of which yield delicious earth tones to her pieces. Her platters and sculptures are often finished with a dash of oil paint, pigmented waxes, or vibrant gold leaf. Loewen also works with her collectors to create commissioned pieces, and offers private pottery wheel classes for all ages and experience levels. Where other artists might retreat to the sanctuary of a private studio, Loewen enjoys having visitors at her colorful Johnson Street gallery and studio, where they can watch her work right on the premises.—Amy Gross Above: Heidi Loewen, Out of This World, smoked porcelain, 28" July 20, 2017 NOW 13
