publisher’s note

|

¡Viva La Fiesta! This is our collective cheer as Fiesta time approaches. While many communities around our country have celebrations, none compare to the longevity of the Santa Fe Fiesta. I have always cherished the fact that this community event starts with the burning of our troubles and a celebration of life, yet ends with a very solemn and religious procession. In between, activities such as the pet parade and the Hysterical /Historical Parade encourage us to celebrate this place we call home.

Nowadays, the Fiesta events are spread over two weekends, starting with the 92nd burning of Zozobra this Friday night, and the rest happening next weekend. You have to love a community that celebrates the burning of our troubles, as together we yell, “Burn him!” If you have never witnessed the spectacle of Zozobra, don’t go through life without being a part of this unique community experience.

Another aspect of Fiesta is the 2016 Fiesta Melodrama: The Bridges of Santa Fe County at the Santa Fe Playhouse. In our politically correct world, this annual production pokes fun at our city, city leaders and the rest of us who make up the cast of this wacky but lovable community. Yet again, Santa Fe presents us with the totally unique. ¡Viva la Fiesta!

Engulfed in flames, the 2013 marionette continued to flail his arms as the fire reached his head.

The 1926 Zozobra, the first to be burned publicly. Set up behind City Hall, he was shot with a revolver by the city attorney before being torched.

Will Shuster, an artist who knew how to throw a party, built the first Zozobra—“Old Man Gloom”—in 1924.

Representing the anxieties and sorrows of the partygoers, the effigy was set afire to dispel the gloom and make way for a joyful Fiesta. A project of the Kiwanis Club since 1964, Zozobra is now 50 feet tall and stuffed with shredded paper.

Citizens are encouraged to contribute paper: old parking tickets, Dear John letters, divorce papers, tax returns, and medical records are routinely added, and the local police and The 2013 sheriff’s offices contribute heavily with Zozobra stands old warrants, etc. Event chairman Ray high over Ft. Sandoval says Zozobra is “one of Marcy Park few remaining community events before meeting his demise. that welcomes everyone...The event really belongs to [the city],” and 45,000 are expected to attend.

There is music in the park before the actual burning, when the giant 92nd Annual Burning of marionette is torched by the Fire Will Shuster’s Zozobra, Dancer and the resulting bonfire September 2, gates open at 3 pm, and fireworks send troubles up pre-show at 7; burning at 9:30; in smoke. —Lisa Van Sickle adults $10-$25, kids under

Massarutto’s Bestiarium Maiale pin, also bronze, is the perfect size to ornament a collar.

With an atmosphere that’s part Santa Fe, part San Francisco, part gallery, part design space, and an eclectic mix of everything in between, JUX. is described by its director, Randy Price, as “midcentury modern rustic romance novel.” This Friday, JUX. is hosting a trunk show of jewelry and accessories by Ora et Labora, an international collection of new and independent designers.

Company founders Gisela Borghi and Mary Margaret Hocker will be on hand to show these pieces, which originate in Italy, Argentina, and the USA.—AM

Entreflamenco begins its fall season on September 7 at a new venue: El Flamenco de Santa Fe, located at 135 W Palace. “Although our organization is grateful to the Lodge at Santa Fe and Jim Long, we feel the city of Santa Fe deserves a space dedicated to flamenco in the Historic area,” says Entreflamenco director Antonio Granjero. “We are unifying our classes and performances in one location for the benefit of the community and visitor alike.” Entreflamenco will continue to offer dance classes at all levels, as well as their acclaimed performances, which will include other dance styles as well. As always, the group will host community dance classes for all ages and abilities, including a free community outreach program for kids ages 7 to 12.

Although many diners enjoy Gabriel’s carnitas, fajitas, and other traditional Mexican and Southwestern dishes, the simply made, fresh guacamole takes center stage. With the pure flavors of tomatoes, jalapeños, garlic, onion, lime, cilantro, a bit of salt, and specialized-farm-grown avocados blended by employees armed with a spoon and whisk before awed diners’ eyes, it’s no surprise the dish is a crowd favorite.

The “entertainment touch provides a great dining experience,” Manager Claire Gabriel says. “It’s one of the most important aspects of our business, so it’s one of the things that we spend the most amount of time training on.”

openings | reviews | artists Abstract artist Mark Villarreal’s new series, Chelsea Bridge, continues his evolving theme of delicate line and quiet application of paint, while also echoing the New York jazz scene of the 1940s and 1950s.

He recognizes the strong influence of the Abstract Expressionists in his work, stating, “In the last few years I have developed quite an affinity for the work of Arshile Gorky. I am intrigued by how feminine his work is when compared to the swagger of his contemporaries.”

Villarreal’s recent trip to Italy, too, played a large part in this new body of work—after viewing the Italian Renaissance masters, he feels his unique and individual vocabulary of abstraction has been taken to another level.

Formally educated at the Kansas City Art Institute, Villarreal now lives in Boulder, Colorado, and serves on the Boulder Arts Commission. His works are included in numerous private and corporate collections, and can be viewed at the United Airlines Concourse in the Denver International Airport, where he collaborated with another artist on a four-year public art commission.—Amanda Jackson Chelsea Bridge The Globe Gallery 727 Canyon globefineart.com September 2–29 Reception September 2, 5–7 pm

Roger Perkins

santafeanNOW.com

Mohawk potter and painter Roger Perkins brings together traditional and modern techniques to create works of art across different mediums. His pottery draws from ancient methods used by the Mohawk peoples. Perkins also uses round canvases to paint with acrylics. His graphic prints, however, take advantage of recent photo editing software to smash pop culture together with Native Americana in what he calls “Powwow Pop Art.” Raised on the Akwesasne Reservation near the border between New York State and Canada, Perkins started playing with Adobe Photoshop after college. He found that he enjoyed both the software itself and the challenge of seamlessly blending art and pictures from different time periods. “I’m taking old photographs from Edward Curtis and other photographers from the 1800s and early 1900s and adding a lot of different images, like a digital collage,” explains Perkins. “It’s a mixture of old and new. We’re using old images with cutting-edge photo technology and state-of-the-art printers with archival inks.”

Perkins finds that his Photoshop art can reach a wider audience than some of his more traditional work does. “Usually only Native people wanted my paintings, but this digital stuff appeals to everybody,” he says. Even so, Perkins still draws his inspiration from the past. “The culture is the foundation, and everything that I’m doing comes from that,” he says. “It’s like a tree; I’ve got different branches, and I’m branching out all over the place. It’s all about creativity. It’s all about culture. It’s all about teaching. It’s all about sharing, and enlightening people.”

As much as Perkins has adopted technology in his art, he has also made a considerable effort to embrace traditional Mohawk crafts.

Perkins’s pottery re-creates a millennia-old method used by his Mohawk ancestors. “I’m the only Mohawk of 70,000 people who does this unique, traditional style of Mohawk pottery that died out in the 1660s,” explains Perkins. “I did all the research and all the studying, and I brought it all back in 1993 and 1994.” He went on teach this method of potmaking, and he is excited to be the first artist to bring that style of traditional Mohawk pottery to SWAIA. The future holds still more growth for Native artists who hope to take advantage of emerging applications and the ever-faster internet, according to Perkins. “I can see a lot of great political art being created with the technology that exists today,” he said. “We can spread messages in the blink of an eye.”

Stephan Martiniere, Mission Tomorrow, digital painting

PREVIEWS

Beyond the Horizon: Futurescapes by Stephan Martiniere POP Gallery 125 Lincoln, Suite 111 popsantafe.com September 2–October 31 Reception September 23, 5–7 pm Recognized for his diverse talents and conceptual art background, digital painter Stephan Martiniere recently joined the ranks of artists based in Santa Fe. “I discovered Santa Fe very early on, when I was 25,” he says, “and I fell in love with it.” International travel and living have played significant roles in Martiniere’s 34-year career, but he always hoped to settle here. He and his wife, who has both history and family in the City Different, are thrilled to have fulfilled their long-standing dream.

One of the catalysts for Martiniere’s professional momentum arrived with the invention of Adobe’s Photoshop 4 (1996)—the first of version of the program that employs the adjustment layer tool— which allowed the French artist to transcend the realm of conceptual art to become a full-time creator.

This new technology, as Martiniere says, allowed him to “explore a medium that was more forgiving.”

Although this new tool offers its challenges, it also provides an alternative to traditional painting; Photoshop and other digital programs allow Martiniere to masterfully produce the intricately detailed works that he envisions as well as to push artistic boundaries. He notes, “That’s why I’ve always been drawn to it: the possibilities.” Martiniere’s accomplishments include creating science fiction book covers, designing Disney theme parks, animating television shows, and providing visual direction for video games. With his first show at POP Gallery opening this month, he’s also paving the way for digital fine art.—Stephanie Love Greetings From New Mexico Gallery 901 708 Canyon gallery901.org September 3–27 Reception September 2 5–7 pm Angel Wynn, Bison Herd on Spring Meadow, encaustic mixed media, 12 x 36" Greetings From New Mexico unveils the work of mixed media artist, Angel Wynn. Wynn creates vintage style, larger-than-life postcards that highlight the magnificent grandeur that is New Mexico.

Her interest in New Mexico began when she visited as a professional photographer, working on various personal projects. Wynn’s work has been published in National Geographic, Time-Life, Cowboys & Indians, and has been used to illustrate educational books.

The Greetings From New Mexico series, a combination of photography, molten encaustic wax, and oil colors, immortalizes the state’s plateaus, mesas, and canyons, embraced by mountains and deserts, along with the rivers that make this place exceedingly picturesque.

Wynn explains, “This exhibit is my way of sharing the beautiful sites of New Mexico that are most treasured by me.”—Amanda Jackson Carol Gove, Bountiful, mixed media on canvas, 36 x 24"

Emergence The Longworth Gallery 530 Canyon thelongworthgallery.com Through September 30 Reception September 2 5–8 pm Andrew Rodriguez, a Native American artist currently working in Albuquerque, presents a solo exhibition of sculptures that explore spiritual emergence.

Rodriguez’s works capture emotion in order to tie us to the wildness of the animal world, where we can find a connection to our essential humanity. His portfolio encompasses various styles and subjects, but the talented artist is most recognized for his bas-relief sculpture. Rodriguez’s time studying sculpture under Allan Houser at the Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA) in Santa Fe is apparent in his traditionally crafted ceramic pieces, each of which also emphasizes his Indigenous heritage.—SL Andrew Rodriguez, Stolen Prize, clay, 17 x 7"

John Chang and Carol Gove Mill Contemporary 702 ½ Canyon millcontemp.com September 2–October 2 Reception September 2, 5–7 pm Mill Contemporary presents a monthlong show with artists John Chang and Carol Gove. Chang, a bicultural Chinese and United States abstract mixed media artist, is fascinated by the dynamics of language, art, and culture; he uses traditional Chinese calligraphy as a creative base from which to explore their influences on one another. While Chang focuses on the starkness of black-and-white, Gove conveys emotion through bright gestural splashes of color, blended with found objects that carry meaning for her. In the resulting abstract mixed media collages, she seeks to tap into shared experiences with the viewer.—Anne Maclachlan
