PUBLISHER’S NOTE

|

COME DECEMBER, WHEN THE WINTER wind blows and we’re buttoning up our heavy coats, we’ll think back to this time of year. Did we take advantage of the many joys of summer when we had the chance? Did we jump in one of the local bodies of water accessible from Santa Fe? Did we hit the Plaza’s nightly bandstand concerts and savor the wonderful fellowship that this community offering brings? Did we really not go to one opera or one chamber music performance? And with all the gallery openings and events each weekend, did we really not once go and see where Santa Fe’s art scene is at this year?

We’re a blessed group of people who get to be in Santa Fe during the prime summer months. The uncomfortably hot days are few, and the evenings are cool and pleasant. Creativity surrounds us and is available in so many forms for us to enjoy. This week, as the calendar flips to August, art-centered activities don’t slow down; if anything, they begin to hit their peak. Work can wait a bit, but summer can’t. Before the big festivals, markets, and performances come to an end, go out and grab some Santa Fe summer. Your well-chosen and deeply enjoyed Santa Fe summer experiences will be appreciated and savored as you’re huddled around your fireplace this winter. Enjoy it now, while you can.

Summer Festival and Territorial Law & Order Weekend

El Rancho de las Golondrinas, a living history museum in nearby La Cienega, transforms into an Old West town during its annual Summer Festival and Territorial Law & Order Weekend. Revelers can watch choreographed gunfights and enjoy wagon rides and hands-on activities like archery, tin stamping, mapmaking, and more.

Kit Carson’s grandson John Carson talks about the life of the legendary guide and trailblazer, while federal judge Bruce Black discusses frontier justice in the late 19th century and the life of New Mexico gunman and politician Elfego Baca. “I remember

the

becoming intrigued with Baca after seeing him featured on Disney’s Wonderful World of Color television show in the 1950s,” Black says. “He was an outlaw who matured into a lawman and lawyer.”

Volunteers bake bread, weave, and work in the musuem’s blacksmithing shop throughout the weekend.

Other activities include a horse show featuring Peruvian Paso horses from La Estancia Alegre horse breeding and training facility, and visitors can check out a collection of Territorial-era documents on display in the museum’s exhibit hall.—Emily Van Cleve Summer Festival and Territorial Law & Order Weekend, August 2 & 3, 10 am–4 pm, $8 ($6 seniors and teens, free for kids under 13), El Rancho de las Golondrinas, 334 Los Pinos Road, La Cienega, 505-471-2261, golondrinas.org

Eliza Gilkyson

Singer/songwriter Eliza Gilkyson, a former Santa Fe resident, can’t stay away from the Land of Enchantment for too long. The prolific folk musician— who lives in Austin and has a home in Arroyo Seco, north of Taos—returns to town on August 3 to perform with her son Cisco Ryder (percussion, keyboard, and vocals) and guitarist Jim Henry.

Presented by Heath Concerts, the trio will appear at Skylight, the brand-new nightclub spearheaded by local DJs Joe Ray Sandoval and Sol Bentley and located in the former Milagro restaurant space on

West San Francisco Street.

Gilkyson’s first set will include a number of tunes from her latest album, The Nocturne Diaries. “While I was putting the album together, I didn’t realize that every song on it had been written deep in the night,” says the musician, who earned a Grammy nomination for her 2004 album Land of Milk and Honey and is a member of the Texas Music Hall of Fame. “You know how thoughts can be at night. Sometimes I worry about environmental disasters, a collapse of the financial system, or the widening gap between the rich and the poor.” Gilkyson’s second set is a free-for-all: She and her band are prepared to take requests, no matter how far back in time the music may lead them. “We’ll do intimate ballads, but we also can rock it pretty good,” she says.—EVC Eliza Gilkyson, August 3, 7 pm, $24, Skylight, 139 W San Francisco, 505-988-1234, skylightsantafe.com

Apes rise to power in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.

relax, armed horse-riding monkeys Guns escalate interspecies tension and enable damaged, crazy apes to kill and take power through fear. These are interesting notions Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is dabbling in; if only it played with its toys more.

There’s a scene when the great ape villain Koba is on a horse, jumping through flames and firing AK-47s from both hands, and it’s the one and only time the movie is fun. (There are other good scenes when Koba pretends to be funny so that he can disarm two humans, but things get dark quickly.) Saving Private Ryan has more humor than Dawn. Why would a movie you watch through 3-D glasses, featuring talking apes on horseback, take itself so seriously?

The film’s special effects are astonishing. No complaints there.

The forest and a post-apocalyptic San Francisco are rendered beautifully. The apes fill the screen many times and look absolutely real. The two most important ape characters, wise leader Caesar and his traumatized henchman Koba, are well-written and played with real depth by actors wearing motion-capture suits (skin-tight and covered in little white balls so the ape features can be inserted during post-production). But what about the humans? There are July 31, 2014

good actors (including Keri Russell and Gary Oldman) in these roles, yet they’re somehow playing people with no single interesting characteristic. If acting is about making a written character feel real, then Dawn is a failure for most involved.

Apocalyptic science fiction affords an opportunity to say something profound about humanity. We often create, for terrible reasons, the instruments of mass death. Survivors are left reeling, stripped of society’s trappings, and thereby forced to reset conventional notions of how to live. But this is an ape apocalypse. An ape-ocalypse. You can have the hard drama but enjoy yourself, too. People remember the original Planet of the Apes for its great ending and for Charlton Heston yelling “Take your stinking paws off me, you damned dirty ape!” Dawn will be forgotten in a month.—Phil Parker

Anyone who loves dogs will appreciate A. R. Gurney’s Sylvia, a comedic play about a man, his wife, and his dog, which opens this week at the Santa Fe Playhouse.

New York City resident Greg (Jonathan Richards) finds a stray dog Sylvia (Tallis Rose) in Central Park one afternoon and takes her home with him. Greg’s wife Kate (Barbara Hatch) isn’t happy with her husband’s new companion, as she sees the dog as a threat to the couple’s 22-year marriage.

“I chose to present Sylvia partly because I’m a dog lover myself,” says director Robert Benedetti. “The play gives wonderful insights into the mind of a dog and the bond between people and dogs.

It also appeals to non-dog lovers because it’s a traditional romantic comedy built around a love triangle— Barbara Hatch (left) and though in this case Tallis Rose rehearse a the ‘other woman’ scene from Sylvia. is a dog.”

As an empty nester, Greg has lots of time on his hands, and he chooses to spend that time with Sylvia. Much of the play centers on the “conversations” Greg has with Sylvia, with Greg’s midlife crisis serving as the subject of some of those talks.

Benedetti calls Sylvia “heartwarmingly funny” and notes that it’s the first project produced by his new theater group, The New Mexico Actors Lab. For tickets and further information, visit santafeplayhouse.org.—EVC Sylvia, July 31–August 17, $20 ($15 students and seniors; $10 for July 31 performance and $25 for the opening night gala on August 1 that begins with refreshments at 6:30 pm), Thursdays–Saturdays, 7:30 pm, Sundays, 4 pm, Santa Fe Playhouse, 142 E De Vargas, 505988-4262, santafeplayhouse.org

into the wild the Jean Cocteau Cinema hosts a benefit for the Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary

A wolf at the Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary in Ramah, New Mexico

by Eve Tolpa

Director Alex Tello (foreground) and writer Samuel Tello (in back) working on the documentary Furthest from the Wild

GEORGE R. R. MARTIN isn’t just the author of the epic Song of Ice and Fire novels and the owner of the Jean Cocteau Cinema. He’s also an advocate for rescued wolves and wolfdogs. Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary, in Ramah, New Mexico, is one of his and his wife Parris’s longtime pet causes. In fact, Martin named 10 of the sanctuary’s wolf-dogs after characters in his books, and they’re now known as the Westeros Pack. (Westeros is the continent on which the Song of Ice and Fire series is set.)

Wild Spirit is one of the many nonprofit animal sanctuaries featured in Alex Tello’s documentary Furthest from the Wild, which was shot in California and across the Southwest and this weekend is being screened at the Cocteau as a benefit for Wild Spirit. Tello will be at the screening, as will Wild Spirit’s traveling ambassador wolf, accompanied by the sanctuary’s director.

Tello became interested in animal sanctuaries when he volunteered at one years ago. “I was fascinated with what was going on,” he says. “You can get so close to these animals, as opposed to in

a zoo.” He realized that helping every week wasn’t enough and wanted to spread the word about the work animal sanctuaries do. (He posits that 80 to 90 percent of the world’s population doesn’t even know such places exist).

Most animals relocated to sanctuaries are wild animals (often primates, big cats, and wolves) that were kept as pets.

According to Tello, the animal trade is the third-largest illicit profit business after drugs and guns—“a way to make a big quick buck with minimal risk”—because laws are lax or nonexistent, especially in the South and Midwest. “I could go on Craigslist right now and find something,” he says.

Tello’s number-one suggestion for the public regarding what we can do to help wild animals? Learn as much about them as you can. Whenever you’re planning to visit a zoo, a live animal show, or even a sanctuary, do your research. Look into how the animals are treated and where the organization’s money goes.

And, of course, check out his documentary, Furthest from the Wild.

Furthest from the Wild, a benefit for the Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary, August 3, screenings at 1:30 and 3:30 pm, $12 ($10 senior/students, $8 kids), Jean Cocteau Cinema, 418 Montezuma, jeancocteaucinema.com July 31, 2014

Festival of Song

the intimate vocal series launches its fourth season

by Eric G u st af s on

ON THURSDAY, JULY 31, Performance Santa Fe presents the first of four Festival of Song recitals. The popular concert series features stars of the Santa Fe Opera singing in a scaled-down and intimate setting, with American tenor Alek Shrader and Argentine mezzosoprano Daniela Mack kicking things off in a program of duets by Rossini and songs from Argentina. Joseph Illick, founding artistic director of Performance Santa Fe (formerly known as the Santa Fe Concert Association), accompanies the singers at the piano.

“Song recitals present a different challenge to both singer and audience, expanding horizons for both,” Illick says. “They offer an insight into the talent of the singer not seen on the larger-than-life opera stage.”

Joseph Illick

The second program in the series, held on Sunday, August 3, features soprano Corinne Winters singing songs in the various dialects of Spain. Learning those dialects involved much linguistic study, but the vibrant Winters reports that the endeavor suited her voice, and that it worked!

The idea to perform those songs came from a suggestion by Winters’s pianist, Steven Blier, who helped the singer push her boundaries and try vocal colorations. “Doing a song cycle is a healthy contrast to singing operatic roles,” Winters says. “It’s wonderful to do both.

BAKER MELINDA GIPSON takes great satisfaction in creating and sharing homemade desserts with fans of her new bakery, Sweet Lily. “I love seeing the repeat customers and giving them their cinnamon roll each day,” she says. “I find the whole process very gratifying.”

Gipson opened Sweet Lily on May 31 and says that glowing word-of-mouth references have been bringing new patrons to her doorstep daily. Gipson previously worked her magic in the kitchens of Harry’s Roadhouse and Dulce Bakery, but now she serves her own traditional American bakery fare as well as gluten-free options. Having made “500 million or so” pies (her favorite dessert to both bake and eat) over the last 20 years, Gipson says that her quintessentially flaky crusts paired with seasonal fruit fillings provide just the right balance of sweetness and don’t overwhelm the palate.

Gipson took the name of her bakery from translations of her five-year-old daughter’s name, Zuzu.

“Zuzu—after the character in the film It’s a Wonderful Life—translates to ‘sweet’ in Yiddish and ‘lily’” in Scandinavian, she says. “For me, dessert is very family-oriented and memory-oriented, so I wanted to include [thoses aspects] in my first venture,” she adds.

In addition to its treats, Sweet Lily offers locally sourced quiche and sandwiches for lunch, adding tasty touches like fig butter to sweeten items like ham, fontina cheese, and greens on homemade foccacia.

“I have a list a mile long of things I want to add to Melinda Gipson the menu,” Gipson says, noting that her staff of three (plus herself as the sole baker) is starting off small but making plans to grow.

Christopher Owen Nelson, Improv, carved and painted Plexiglas, 52 x 83"

Having first shown his works as a self-taught teenage artist, Denver native Christopher Owen Nelson went on to study at the Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design and eventually developed his own standout style. His latest show at Waxlander Art Gallery & Sculpture Garden, Subconscious Space (through August 11, reception August 1, 5–8 pm, 622 Canyon, waxlander.com), includes new mixed-media pieces that demonstrate what’s been referred to as Nelson’s “pioneering explorations of carved and manipulated acrylic and bold use of color.”

by Eve Tolpa

ASK MOST ARTISTS what brought them to Santa Fe, and you’re likely to hear a familiar litany of responses: the light, the mountains, the tricultural environment. Not so for Roseta Santiago: She was drawn to the City Different primarily because of its reputation as a thriving art market.

“I moved here in 2000,” says the self-taught artist, who had previously been living in Atlanta and building and designing nightclubs throughout the Southeast—a line of work that also utilized her skills in graphic design, advertising, and mural painting. “I promised myself after doing all these jobs that I would finally have my dream of being a fine-art painter.”

Santiago promptly got busy charting the course for her new career. “Half of me is a pragmatist and half is a dreamer,” she says. “When I focus on something, I try to get it done.”

When she wasn’t painting in her studio, “I find people really fascinating,” Santiago was invessays Roseta Santiago. “Some kind tigating galleries and doing “a lot of market of interior beauty—that’s what study to figure out what I had to say that I like to try to capture.” was different.” She knew she was “going to find a way to make people look at what I’m looking at,” and although at that point she hadn’t yet settled on the exact subject Taos Man from El Salto, matter for her pieces, it was clear she wanted to create oil on linen, 20 x 16" still lifes.

“I find things that somebody made,” Santiago says, “and I try to see the story in it.” Case in point: the Native earthenware vessels that populate so many of her dramatically lit paintings. Santiago is especially transfixed by the human connection inherent in handmade objects, which she sees as oblique portraits of their creators. “I’m meeting them through their work,” she says. “The connection between these artists and me. . . . What is it that makes us the same?”

By 2008, Santiago had branched out into depicting the figure. Not surprisingly, it’s the sense of the human story that engages her. “I find people really fascinating,” she says, noting that her latest show, at Blue Rain Gallery, features several paintings of one particular model, a Taos Pueblo man. The show’s title is Grace, a word that for Santiago refers to “some kind of interior beauty. That’s what I like to try to capture,” she says.

Ditching the Cardigan a r ti st Je re my Thoma s delves into new territory

by Eve Tol pa

Top: Tinsely Pink, forged mild steel, powdered coat, nail lacquer, 18 x 19 x 12".

Bottom: Ling Blue, forged mild steel and powdered coat, 17 x 15 x 23".

IT’S HARD NOT TO BE subtly reminded of fortune cookies when viewing Jeremy Thomas’s bulbous metal sculptures, which he calls, simply, “inflatables.”

At his studio in Española, Thomas cuts steel plates, folds them into patterns (often circle-based shapes), welds those pieces together, and then, finally, injects air into them. The process of inflation has an element of uncertainty—and for Thomas it’s the most fun. “I’ve learned how they respond to each other,” he says of the interacting elements. “I’ve been inflating these things for about 10 years, and you tend to get into a groove.” He can’t, however, know exactly what will happen. Depending on the weight of a piece or the relative heat of any of its sides, the material will react differently.

Unexpected folds and wrinkles may appear.

The pieces are interesting enough as pure form, but Thomas adds another

element: highly specific, carefully chosen color, which he juxtaposes with oxidized metal. “We all have color memories,” he says, “like when you smell a smell from your childhood and it brings particular circumstances back to you.” Some of his earlier works incorporated what he terms “macho” colors, inspired in part by a fascination with farm equipment from his own childhood in Oklahoma. Now (for very small pieces only!) he’s more likely to use nail polishes, which have “a surface, a gloss to them” that’s similar to car paint.

The title of Thomas’s latest show, Ditching the Cardigan, is a reference to an article about the late Fred Rogers, of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood fame. It’s about leaving behind established frames of reference, an idea that resonates with Thomas, who says that recently his work has been “moving into an area that’s more unresolved.” Part of that evolution is a trend toward creating larger pieces. Because his forge is only four feet cubed, going bigger means inflating pieces cold rather than hot. As a result, Thomas is now limited only by the size of sheet plate steel he can find.

That, and his imagination.

Billy Sch e nc k ex p lor e s t he icon s a nd m y t h s of t he stori e d Ame rica n We st

by Emily Va n C le ve

BILLY SCHENCK’S UNIQUE VISION of the American West is evident in his new show South by Southwest, which runs through August 8 at Sorrel Sky Gallery.

Schenck builds a mythology using iconic characters and prefers to let the images in his paintings—cowboys and cowgirls, Navajo sheepherders, and Apache women with baskets—speak for themselves. A few of the almost two-dozen paintings in the show focus on a few of his favorite locations: Monument Valley and Canyon de Chelly.

“I go to those two places two or three times a year, and I’ve been doing that for years,” Schenck says. “I use the same exact locations in a lot of my work. I like to think that as I get older I find more mature ways of seeing and painting Free Range Cowgirl, those places.”

Schenck’s style is part of the oil on canvas, 18 x 14" Western pop-art movement.

Influenced in the early days Sunset in the Red River of his career by Warhol and Valley, oil on canvas, Lichtenstein, Schenck still 55 x 40" draws inspiration from their work. He’s a painter always looking for new possibilities and ways to revisit old subject matter. Case in point: In the 1980s, Schenck began experimenting with halftone dots in his work, and he recently decided to re-explore that process and create two such paintings especially for his new show.

“The process involves scanning slides, taking out the background, and putting halftone dots in the images; running the images on my computer where I create or eliminate some of the details; projecting the images on an overhead projector; and drawing the images on canvas,” he says. “I made a small painting of a woman wearing high heels with spurs hanging off them for the show. The other piece is a life-size portrait of a cowgirl with one breast exposed.”

Schenck is excited to be featuring halftone dot works at Sorrel Sky Gallery because, although he’s exhibited such pieces in other venues in the past, he’s never shown them in Santa Fe. Billy Schenck, South by Southwest, through August 8, Sorrel Sky Gallery, 125 W Palace, sorrelsky.com 24

Sheryl Zacharia, Hipster, ceramic sculpture, 21 x 14 x 5"

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: SHERYL ZACHARIA A former singer/songwriter, ceramist Sheryl Zacharia still brings musicality to her nonfunctional pottery. “I wrote music and lyrics, [so] I go for a kind of poetry in my work,”she says. “Pattern and form are rhythm. The palette is harmony. The lines are lyrical.”

Zacharia hand-works the abstract forms (often they bear her finger marks), finishing the surfaces with various slips, oxides, underglazes, and glazes, working in layers much the way a painter might. The Manhattan artist is drawn to slips that crack, marrying the new with a weathered look. In 2010, New York’s Museum of Arts and Design honored her with an extended residency, and that same year (and again in 2013) she earned a creative grant from the Northern Manhattan Arts Alliance. Zacharia’s solo show People, Places, and Things runs through August 19 at Tansey Contemporary on Canyon Road. −Ashley M. Biggers tanseycontemporary.com

PREVIEWS

opening art receptions

Melinda K. Hall: My Modern Bestiary Meyer East Gallery, 225 Canyon, meyereastgallery.com August 1–August 14, reception August 1, 5–7 pm When Melinda K. Hall started her artistic career, “it was really about working with the paint,” she says. “Most of my work was very abstract.” Over the years she added flat images and simple shapes to her pieces—everyday objects, the animals in her life— while maintaining her dedication to creating sophisticated surfaces. The resulting aesthetic, which she terms “contemporary naïve,” combines humor and narrative with exuberant color. “I think it’s approachable work,” Hall says, positing that the initial contact with the canvas leads the eye into the background’s subtleties, created by layers of paint. For her, a piece is “only completed when a viewer takes it in and it brings up their own experiences.”—ET

Marilyn Yates, Summer Entrada, acrylic on board, 11 x 14"

Melinda K. Hall, Know Your Chicken Parts, oil on canvas, 24 x 24"

Jeff Juhlin, Cloud Hidden, encaustic and mixed media on panel, 30 x 30"

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: MARILYN YATES Marilyn Yates loves hollyhocks, lilacs, and adobe houses. When she can find all three together, it’s a great day for painting.

“I love the way lilacs spill over adobe walls,” says the Eldorado resident. “I don’t have adobe walls at my house, so I often drive over to the east side of town to look for a scene like that.”

At least 15 recent paintings of New Mexico’s landscape are part of her solo show at Sage Creek Gallery that opens this weekend. Although spring and summer are glorious times to paint, Yates says that she’s including work created throughout the year. There are winter scenes from the Taos and Santa Fe ski areas, and an autumn landscape captures fall colors found not too far from Alamosa, Colorado. Paintings of the church in Golden, New Mexico, and the little chapel at El Rancho de las Golondrinas in La Cienega are also on display. And then there are the flowers.

Peonies and sunflowers are among Yates’s favorites, and many of her works are inspired by the roses, lilacs, and peonies in her garden.

Regardless of the subject matter, however, Yates likes to keep her paintings intimate in size. “They’re like small, special secrets,” she says.

Something that surprises many viewers is that Yates only uses acrylics in her work. She made the switch from watercolors to acrylics two decades ago, when she realized that her watercolors were becoming more opaque. Over the years she discovered a way to paint with acrylics that’s reminiscent of other media.

“Most people think I’m using oils or pastels because they think acrylics have a hard edge,” she says, “but my acrylics are more painterly.”—EVC Marilyn Yates, solo exhibition, August 1–August 14, reception August 1, 5–7 pm, Sage Creek Gallery, 421 Canyon, sagecreekgallery.com

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: JEFF JUHLIN

Jeff Juhlin combines layers of wax, paper, and other media—sometimes fusing up to 20 layers of materials—in one painting. He then goes back to excavate and expose previous stratums. The intimate and relatable works on panel bare witness to this process and become metaphors for his discovery; the non-objective, earthy surfaces that emerge evoke weathered wood and storied objects. “The intention,” says Juhlin, “is to seduce you into getting involved . . . then hopefully you will do some exploration and excavation of your own.”—Hannah Hoel Ellsworth Gallery, ellsworthgallery.com July 31, 2014

Wednesday night, July 23, was a Santa Fe music-lover’s dream, as Goldenboy (above) killed it at Duel Brewing, Alto Street (right) rocked out at Cowgirl BBQ, and Bruce Robison and Kelly Willis (below, right) wooed the crowds at the Santa Fe Bandstand. Southern California–based indie-pop group Goldenboy was passing through on their summer tour from Texas to California. For years, Goldenboy’s frontman, Shon Sullivan, performed with iconic singer/songwriter Elliott Smith, who dubbed Sullivan “golden boy” during a tour in 2000. Alto Street is a local acoustic power trio (Joseph Salack, Steve McCormick, and Steve Linger) that performs a mix of blues rock, folk, alternative country, jazz, and world music. Austin’s reigning music couple Bruce Robison and Kelly Willis—who are sometimes compared to Johnny Cash and June­Carter Cash—had the crowds on the Plaza dancing the night away to their harmonizing Americana sound.
