Not even the federal government can afford to rent in Santa Fe BY E LI Z A B E TH M I L L E R e l i za b e t h @ s frepo r ter.co m
C
ontinued increases in the cost of housing in Santa Fe and ongoing cuts to funding for federal housing assistance mean authorities here are unable to make full use of a voucher program designed to help the city’s lowest income residents. Federally funded Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers can be used to cover the difference between 30 percent of a resident’s income and the rent of a market-rate apartment. These vouchers are available for residents who make between 30 percent and 80 percent of the area household median income, set for the city at $49,380 and for the county at $67,800. “We have 1,200 [vouchers] allocated to us, but we have the actual budget to house somewhere in the neighborhood of 950 units,” says Ed Romero, executive director of the Santa Fe Civic Housing Authority. “It doesn’t do any good to have a big allocation but no budget to match up to it, but we spend 100 percent of our budget, and that’s just kind of where we sit.” That difference arises as the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) separately sets numbers for vouchers and budgets, and the program has gone underfunded for years. Santa Fe gets a $7 million budget (as of 2015), of which they’re able to spend about 99 percent, losing just a small margin to the time that passes between when someone is issued a voucher and when they lock in a suitable rental. “I guess what they’re telling you is that the money that comes from Washington isn’t enough to meet the demand,” says Brian Sullivan, supervisory public affairs specialist with HUD. “That is true, and it’s true everywhere across the country.” The federal government annually sets a fair market rent for housing rented by voucher recipients. The latest numbers for the Santa Fe metro area are $782 for a one-bedroom, $943 for a two-bedroom and $1,252 for a three-bedroom unit. That means based on the data the government has gathered and assessed, 40 percent of the city’s apartments should rent at those rates or lower. But that data often lags behind real time, Sullivan says, as HUD has to wait until the end of the year to collect the numbers, analyze them, and open them to public comment before they’re finally set. Those numbers can be challenged and adjusted, if local staffs commit time and effort to that task. The trouble on the Santa Fe County Housing Authority’s end cuts the other direction for their roughly 241 housing choice vouchers—they have the funding for all of them, but don’t have all of those vouchers leased up. “Oftentimes, it’s very difficult for our clients to find housing, and as a result, we have enough money to house all our vouchers,” says Ron Pacheco, executive director of the Public Housing Authority for Santa Fe

Housing choice vouchers aim to give Santa Feans access to apartments throughout the city, but limited budgets and high rents are shorting that system.
County Housing Authority. “Now what we’re trying to do is house them all up so we use up all that money, because the way HUD works is, if you don’t use up all that money, they take it.” Renters have 30 days from the time their voucher is issued to find a rental, and Pacheco says he’s constantly issuing extensions as people struggle to find a place that fits their family size and income level and is also in the right price range. Both the city and county face multiyear waiting lists for the voucher program. The Civic Housing Authority last opened that wait list in 2014, and those on it expect
The money that comes from Washington isn’t enough to meet the demand. to wait up to three years for a voucher. The county continues to add names to the list but estimates it can take up to five years for an applicant to secure a voucher. As many as 11,313 households, or 37 percent, in Santa Fe are cost-burdened by housing that requires them to spending more than 30 percent of household income on rent or a mortgage payment, according to the city’s Affordable Housing Plan released in April. That report also found an ongoing shortage in the number of affordable rentals available, particularly for those who make 30 percent or less of the area’s median income. Congressional funding for HUD has fallen short of what the housing agency estimates it needs and is approaching a 40-year low, according to Douglas Rice, senior policy analyst with the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. While rents have continue to rise and wages remained stagnant, Rice reports, federal housing assistance remained below 2010 levels—though the cut wasn’t as deep in 2016 (down from 2010 by 4.6
percent) as it was in 2013 (down by 13.3 percent). The amount of funding housing agencies receive is based on the number and cost of vouchers they issued in the prior calendar year, adjusted for inflation. “Agencies deal with cuts like that by reducing the number of families they serve, then that also reduces their funding eligibility in the subsequent year,” Rice says. “So unless Congress makes a subsequent effort to provide additional funding to make up for those losses, in effect, those losses get locked in.” The Obama administration’s 2017 budget request includes an $11 billion initiative to eliminate family homelessness by 2020, an unprecedented detailed proposal to tackle that issue, Rice says. A core piece of that plan calls for a significant expansion of the voucher program. Yet the lion’s share of federal housing program funding goes to supporting homeowners rather than renters, Rice contends, and often to help families that make $100,000 or more pay off their mortgages or receive tax breaks for capital gains when they sell a home. “There really is this imbalance in resources in federal housing policy that could be addressed in a way that would free up resources to help more low-income, working families that are really struggling to make ends meet,” Rice says. HUD has requested $1.2 billion more for housing vouchers for 2017 and is even exploring changes to the model for how fair market rents are established in high-cost areas of the country, which tend to concentrate voucher users in a few neighborhoods. Instead of a regional method, the department has proposed moving to a ZIP code approach for setting those rates, Sullivan says. How that would affect Santa Fe isn’t yet clear. The city and county haven’t received the designation HUD uses to mark high-cost metro areas. But making those changes could also effectively see these housing agencies able to help even fewer people. “It’s ultimately about how much money is available to help housing authorities across the country,” Sullivan says, “and that money is never enough to meet demand.”

Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders spoke to a packed house at Santa Fe Community College on Friday, May 20, while many others listened from outside.
Sanders Stumps in Santa Fe Local energy around the campaign belies the septuagenarian senator’s prospects at reaching the Democratic ballot BY STE VE N HS I E H s teve n @ s fre p o r ter.co m
refuse to bring kids into this world, especially because of the crap I’ve been through,” says Elissa Peppler, as she waited in line to see Senator Bernie Sanders, the septuagenarian democratic socialist who rode an unlikely populist wave in his bid for the presidency, largely on the support of young people. Peppler, 30, trained as a dental assistant but has yet to take the certification test to start working in New Mexico. It costs $175. She says she is on food stamps and struggling to pay off $33,000 in student loan debt, which continues to grow every day. “That’s ridiculous,” says Chelsea Dunn, a 29-yearold nanny, smoking a cigarette next to Peppler. “Honestly, if you look up the definition of public service, Bernie is the only one doing his job,” Peppler offers. “Hillary is the corporate puppet. Trump is the chump.” On Friday, the sun beamed hard on hundreds of Sanders supporters, who wrapped around a gymnasium building, stretching the equivalent of four or five city blocks. Drum beats and chants of “Bernie! Bernie! Bernie!” filled the air in the building’s vicinity. A man in a black baseball cap walked among the crowd, announcing no “vaping devices” would be allowed in the building. Later, the same man made his rounds hawking “100% organic and GMO-free” campaign buttons. The energy surrounding Sanders, here and elsewhere, belies his campaign’s dwindling chances. His rally in Santa Fe, the first of three scheduled in New Mexico, was part of a last-ditch effort to overcome the nearly insurmountable gap between him and Hillary

Clinton. Later on Friday, the senator swung down to Albuquerque for dinnertime campaigning. And Saturday, he made a stop in Vado, a small town in Doña Ana County. But barring some miracle, catastrophe or massive exodus of superdelegates, Bernie Sanders will not be the Democratic pick for president. Clinton leads the Vermont senator by 212 delegates. She needs about 100 more delegates to win the Democratic nomination. Pundits say she will almost certainly seal the deal on June 7, when voters from New Mexico, California, New Jersey and three other states go to the polls. Yet, if Sanders’ prospects tempered his supporters’ passion, no such despondency could be seen in Santa Fe. Disgust with Washington, Wall Street and the status quo weighs on a number of devotees who attended Friday’s rally. Sanders, they say, offers a solution to America’s deepest problems, or at the very least, a voice for their simmering disaffection. For Lucas Jimenez, the problem is a crisis of integrity. A student studying welding at SFCC, Jimenez was one of the first people in line to rally behind his candidate of choice. The 24-year-old wore a gray t-shirt emblazoned with the now-famous imKitties and tie-dye and socialism, oh my. age of Sanders as a young civil rights activist in 1963, getting dragged away STEVEN HSIEH

“
by Chicago police. Jimenez says it symbolizes Sanders’ authenticity—“That he isn’t just talk. He’s real. He’s honest.” A volunteer named Jackson Miller, 18, shouted call-and-response chants to the crowd all afternoon. (“When I say Bernie, you say Sanders!”) “I just think his economic policy is the best for our country,” says the teenager, who is heading to Stanford University in the fall. “It will redistribute wealth and help close the poverty gap. We should reach for the sky.” Clinton, in Miller’s eyes, has more experience than Sanders, especially in the realm of foreign policy. “But a lot of it is bad, like regime change and Obama’s drone program.” (Note: Sanders also supports the limited use of military drones in counter-terrorism operations.) Four Highlands University students, who call themselves the Trippy Kitty Movement (“sponsored by the Catnip Coalition”), sported tie-dye tops, fronted with a psychedelic swirl of feline faces. “I think Bernie would like them. He would wear them as pajamas,” says Mia Ramirez.
NEWS Another Trippy Kitty comrade, Dyna Amaya, tells SFR, “Honestly, Bernie Sanders reflects all the political causes I am for. Going against the 1 percent. I am a socialist Democrat because I believe in creating an equitable society.” “You go, girl!” a third friend, Lily Okoye, chimes in. Gay Hedges, a 56-year-old courier from Lubbock, Texas, qualified her support. She drove to Santa Fe the night before, making a stop by Roswell to pick up a friend, Marisalena Manchego. As they stood in the gymnasium waiting for Sanders to take the stage, both wore buttons with the image of Rosie the Riveter and the words “I am a woman. Watch me vote.”
This beautiful state will help lead this country into the political revolution. Hedges agrees with Sanders on just about everything but ultimately has her eye on the general election. “I just don’t want Trump,” she says, gravely, squeezing my shoulder with a grip that screamed desperation. Manchego, 59, disagreed with her friend. “I will not vote for the lesser of two evils,” she says. “It is my hope that Bernie will run as an independent.” Speaking to nearly 3,000 followers, the senator kicked off a lively rally celebrating the victories he’s claimed so far: 20 state primaries, 46 percent of pledged delegates and more than 9 million votes. During a wide-ranging speech that lasted over an hour, the senator hunched his signature hunch and gestured with gusto, characteristically waving and jabbing his index finger to accentuate each point. Sanders delivered usual stump lines on big banks, health care and the criminal justice system. He also played up issues that seemed specifically tailored to this state, emphasizing his support for tribal sovereignty. “Everybody here knows, if you’ve studied five minutes of American history, that before this country became this country, the Native American people were lied to,” he said to applause. “And the treaties they signed were broken.”
Sanders also spoke directly to the Latino community, calling for greater protections for undocumented immigrants. “There are 11 million undocumented people in this country,” he said. “I wouldn’t be surprised if some of them are in this room right now.” For the rest of Sanders’ speech, SFR took note of when his audience applauded, as well as when they booed. Among the ideas and lines that received applause: overturning Citizens United, instituting a $15 federal minimum wage, closing the gender wealth gap, demilitarizing police forces, “rethinking the so-called War on Drugs,” treating substance abuse as a health issue, developing “a Medicare-for-all health care system,” expanding Social Security, politicizing America’s youth, offering tuition-free college, refinancing student loans, taxing Wall Street speculation, respecting sovereign rights for Native American tribes, and commemorating the Civil Rights movement, the women’s suffrage movement and the LGBT rights movement. And boos: the Koch brothers, Sheldon Adelson, Walmart, the “world of superdelegates,” the fact that the top one-tenth of 1 percent of Americans now owns almost as much wealth as the bottom 90 percent, offshore bank accounts, the US prison population (the highest in the world), opiate addiction, the Republican effort to cut Social Security, New Mexico’s childhood poverty rate (the highest in the nation), our high school graduation rate (the lowest in the nation) and Donald Trump’s “rhetoric of rounding up” 11 million undocumented Americans. Sanders ended his speech with another call to action, pleading for supporters to get their family and friends to the polls. “Let New Mexico go on record as saying this beautiful state will help lead this country into the political revolution,” he concluded, before walking off stage to David Bowie’s “Starman.” Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie Everyone filed out of the gym. Clinton does not currently have a stop in New Mexico on her schedule, but former President Clinton stumped for her in Española Tuesday and was scheduled to head to Albuquerque on Wednesday. Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump spoke at the Albuquerque Convention Center on Tuesday.

he sweet days of summer in this little city are accompanied by an embarrassment of riches when it comes to places to go, things to do and people to meet. It’s easy to fall into a rut—even a pleasant, sun-stunned one. While you’re free to do the same things you did last summer and the summer before that, we’ve laid out a plan here to help you get off the beaten path. Join our team of writers who explored on your behalf. You might not find your yourself alone. Hell, you might meet some new friends. But it should be fun: Learn a new skill (p. 17), ditch the America beer for a fun pink wine (p. 19), maybe even take some to a local mountaintop along with a snack (p. 20).
Get baseballed (p. 28), hit the new mall mini golf (p. 30). Embed yourself in contemporary arts culture at SITE Santa Fe’s celebrated biennial show (p. 32) or learn what’s to love about opera from our resident opera lover, John Stege (p. 35). A new theater company working in the Siler Road district is offering an award-winning lineup (p. 41), and, in case you haven’t taken your headphones off in a while, we’ve also got the lowdown on all the best music fests in town (p. 39) and a list of “Don’t Miss” events (p. 47) that are longstanding Santa Fe gems, experiments and singular opportunities to enrich your day. Robert Frost might have been in a snowy wood when he wrote about diverging roads, but the same applies to the blazing summer. Take the one less traveled by. It can make all the difference.

Get more amazed than at the amusement park in New Mexico’s great outdoors

ublic lands. The two words conjure images of desert vistas and windswept mountaintops, forests and badlands. Also, images courtesy of REI catalogues and Subaru commercials of the fit and the beautiful putting their disposable income to good use paddling rapids or test-driving their all-wheel drive vehicle on a picturesque gravel road. Despite those images—some of which are based in reality—and contrary to PR crafted by the industries eager to get their grubby mitts on America’s resource-rich public lands and watersheds, I think recreation on public lands has more to do with accessibility and affordability than anything else. Can’t afford the amusement park? Go outside. Want to bond with your kid? Go fishing. There’s great birdwatching along the Rio Grande in Española, just off Buckman Road in Santa Fe or on loop trails at the Randall Davey Audubon Center at the end of Upper Canyon Road. Beavers can be spotted just a few minutes from the Plaza at the Santa Fe Canyon Preserve. Or go looking for petroglyphs along the mesa in La Cieneguilla, just down the road from the airport. Take the state’s hunter safety course and spend a weekend looking for quail, deer or elk. In New Mexico, we have amazing public lands— managed by federal, state and local agencies. They’re all over the place. Don’t want to climb a mountain? Wander the trails that weave around within Cerrillos Hills State Park. Head to the Jemez, find a stream and stand in the middle of it. Meet a friend halfway between Santa Fe and Albuquerque and hike at Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument.
Over time, our individual relationships with public lands evolve, too. Or at least mine did. In my 20s, all I wanted to do was backpack into remote spots with a water filter, dehydrated pea soup and the lightest, flimsiest sleeping pad on the market. With a toddler, I looked for easy hikes without too many goatheads or steep ledges. Today, with a 10-year-old—and a decade of car camping behind us— we’re planning our first backpacking trip together. And it’s not just me and my kid out there. For the past year, admission into national parks has been free for fourth graders and their families. In fact, visits to the parks are up—and a recent study showed that “quiet recreation” like camping and hiking brought $173 million to the state in 2014. Over Easter weekend, Carlsbad Caverns hadn’t had an operating elevator in months, and yet the place was packed with families from Mexico, older couples and teenagers trudging up and down the dark, steep trail into the caverns. Yeah, the caverns were neat. But it was the diversity of visitors that made me happiest. And while I’ve often relished escape from other humans, lately, I’ve been enjoying that sense of community. At a state park campsite earlier this spring, a gentleman walked over to my daughter and me after breakfast. “I’ve been so happy to see you two,” he said (in a totally non-creepy way). “Our family camped together when our kids were little, and I think that’s why we’ve all stayed so close.” While he and his wife take a big trip across the country, their daughter is caring for the farm and the house in the Pacific Northwest.
Can’t afford the amusement park? Go outside.
And if ever I needed a nudge to appreciate New Mexico’s public lands, a recent quick trip—like, of less than two hours’ duration—to Texas provided an excellent reminder. When the campsite at Hueco Tanks State Park and Historic Site we’d planned on wasn’t available (and despite what the park website explained), a friend and I realized we had two options: Rent a crappy motel room on the hazy, haggard outskirts of El Paso or drive back to New Mexico and camp someplace beautiful. Of course, we drove back to New Mexico. And woke up the next morning at Oliver Lee State Park outside of Alamogordo. The Sacramento Mountains were at our back as we looked across White Sands to the San Andres and San Augustin mountains. We were home.

Summer Guide - Get Out
Reel Fun
Or: Learning to fish the tear-free way, from a total stranger
L
BY GW YN E TH D O LA N D
earning a new physical skill is often a humiliating experience. Teaching your body to do something novel involves a period of repetition that eventually builds enough muscle memory so that you can think about something else while doing it. And when that happens, the feeling is amazing. But until that level of competence is achieved, you inevitably suffer through varying levels of frustration, embarrassment, self-pity, self-loathing and loathing of the person who told you this would be “fun.” For example, my dude is really good at fly fishing, and he tried to teach me how to do it, and of course I was bad at it, and because I’m the kind of person who expects to be good at everything right away, I ended
up plopping down on a creek bank and throwing a teary toddler tantrum. Very unsporting. We don’t speak of it.
Get a Guide—and Borrow Gear So I resolved to get better (but not with him watching). There are several Santa Fe-area fly-fishing shops and outfits that offer formal classes, but everyone I talked to said the best way to learn is to fish with a guide, who will give you as much—or as little—instruction as you want. Guides are willing to teach as much as you want to learn, and absolute beginners have the best opportunity to
soak up a ton of knowledge from one day with a guide. “They pay attention to detail and instruction and are more willing to be taught,” says Jarrett Sasser of High Desert Angler. This makes great sense: Pay someone who’s really good at fishing and spends enough time on the water that he won’t get all bent about coaching you all day. “I’m 62, and I’ve been fly fishing since I was 4 years old, and I would not try to teach my wife how to fly fish,” says Noah Parker of Land of Enchantment Guides. “Seriously. We run into this all the time. Whether it’s couples or father and son, it’s like, yeah, don’t do it.” Learning from a stranger is totally baggage-free. What exactly will you learn? David Lemke, who is the one-man Fly Fishing School of Santa Fe, teaches in his back yard in Pecos. “We’ll sit at a table, and I’ll teach them how to rig and choose flies, and then I do a little casting lesson.” After that, they walk down to the river and learn how to manage the line in the water, how to read the water, how to actually catch fish—and release them properly. “Some people think they’re doing catch-and-release but really they’re putting a fish back into the water, and it’s going to die,” he says. It’s not cheap to hire a fly fishing guide (about $350 for a full day), but there are plenty of advantages to it, including the fact that many of them will outfit you with everything you need for the day (waders, boots, rod, reel, flies, snips and tippets) for free or a small fee. Trying to gear up before you’ve ever been on the water can be daunting, but “all you need is a hat and a pair of sunglasses,” says Parker, who stocks gear from kids’ size 4 to men’s 15. “If we can’t fit you out in wading gear, you’re either very, very small or very, very large.” Of course, some guides don’t have a big stock of waders to rent, but the truth is, you don’t need much more than a rod and reel, which every guide outfit can lend. In the summer here, you can wade into the water with shorts and river sandals. If you get cold, climb back onto the bank and fish for a while, and you’ll be dry in a flash. “My best advice is, before you spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on gear, take a guided trip” and borrow gear, says Ivan Valdez, whose shop, The Reel Life, sells everything it lends out. And the important thing is not how you look, it’s that you 1) learn how to fish, 2) have a good time and 3) don’t cry. Sounds doable.

Summer Guide - Eat ‘n’ Drink
Pinkies Down The wine of the summer is fun, un-fussy rosé
W
BY GW YN E TH D O LA N D
hat should you be drinking this summer? Pink wine. When it’s as hot as an horno out there, and you’re as thirsty as a silvery minnow—but you want real wine, not the refreshing sports drink known as pino grigio. French rosés are the most famous, probably because the French take themselves most seriously, so even when they make pink wine to drink while swinging in a hammock, they have to do it right. But there are tons of approachable and affordable pink wines being made all over the world right now, from Oregon to Argentina to Austria, and they are sitting prominently on the shelves at your favorite wine shop and Trader Joe’s. Like Champagne, rosé has the power to set the tone for an occasion. It makes an uptight event feel more easygoing, and it dresses up an otherwise humble gathering.
AIX $17.99 at Susan’s
A well-engineered French rosé with bright red fruit and melon flavors, a minerally edge and a smooth, lingering finish. Put it out with a plate of cheese, prosciutto and melon—or just drink it.
Solá Fred 2014 Rosat, Monsant, Spain $12/glass and $46 bottle at Eloisa
With a deep raspberry color and surprising depth, this is a well-rounded and balanced blend of 90 percent Garnatxa with 10 percent Syrah that’s fun to drink and plays well with food. Think tapas. (Although it’s only available at Eloisa now, as your wine shop can order it for you without the restaurant markup.)
Pink wine is for Friday afternoon when you had a meeting off-site and now it’s kind of too late to go back to the office, so why don’t we meet over at that place with the patio, and we’ll order a bottle of rosé and catch up because OMG, I haven’t seen you in so long! I’m telling you right now: If your pink wine isn’t cold enough, you can drop an ice cube in it. And if people throw you dagger-eyes, just shrug and smile, like, “Isn’t this fun?” Because shut up, haters. But the secret of rosé, rosato or rosado (but not white zinfandel or pink Moscato) is that there are many carefully crafted pink wines with tons of character and depth that are designed to go with what you’re eating right now: take-out fried chicken, wood-oven pizza, pad Thai, ham and cheese sandwiches, pasta with fresh tomato sauce. The even secret-er secret is that you don’t have to spend much money to move from “Oh, I like this!” to “Hey, what is this?” rosé. A great som-
Prieler $17 at La Casa Sena Wine Shop
A princess-pink Austrian rosé made with merlot and Blaufrankisch. Smells like bright berries but delivers a balance of fruit and acid with a zippy, almost effervescent finish. Serve it with a cheese tray.
melier once told me never to spend more than $10 on rosé. And OK, that was a long time ago, but seriously, you can buy totally drinkable pink wine for $10. Between $10 and $20 is the sweet spot. There’s a great variety of respectable pink wines in this range. Between $20 and $30, you start to get serious, and between $30 and $40, you can get the best out there. But for a Tuesday afternoon, why are you spending so much? Don’t be silly! Here are some of the most fun, interesting, unusual and delightful pink wines I’ve guzzled tasted recently. This is a small and entirely un-representative sample of what you’ll find when you wander through the aisles. Kokoman (34 Cities of Gold Road in Pojoaque, 455-2219) has a huge selection of rosé; the staff at Susan’s (1005 S St. Francis Drive, 984-1582) can point you to their favorites; La Casa Sena Wine Shop (125 E Palace Ave., 9822121) stocks some hard-to-find bottles, and it’s an afternoon stroll away from every downtown government office.
Pico Maccario Lavignone Piemonte Rosato 2013
Underwood Rosé
$13.99 at Kokoman
Yeah, I’m telling you to buy pink wine in a can. The company first canned this wine as a lark for a food and wine festival, but it caught on. This Oregon product is fun, with watermelon, peach and strawberry flavors. One can is 375 milliliters, half a bottle, or about two-and-a-half glasses.
It smells like sweet flowers and delivers an intense but silky and smooth berry flavor. Made from 100 percent Barbera. Can stand up to pizza with sausage or grilled meats.
$6.99 per 375 ml. can at La Casa Sena and Whole Foods
Casal Garcia Vinho Verde Rosé
Miraval Côtes de Provence
$9.99 at Susan’s
$ 19.99 at Costco
It’s not complicated, but it has Vinho Verde’s refreshing fizz and a low alcohol content, which means you can drink it like KoolAid (almost).
This is the wine made by Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, so I want to hate it. But I can’t. It’s got a flowery nose and a pleasant balance of fruit and acidity, plus it comes in an unusually attractive bottle—and the story gives you a great icebreaker. (It’s out of stock everywhere I called in Santa Fe right now, but Costco still has some.)

Pack a Sandwich The perfect lunch for a summer hike
T
BY GWYN E T H D O L A N D
here’s nothing like reaching the summit after a challenging hike and resting on a nice, flat rock to enjoy lunch with a gorgeous vista. … And then opening your pack to pull out a soggy dough ball that once was a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It’s a rather ascetic reward. It doesn’t have to be like that. You just hiked for hours straight up a mountain. You deserve a glorious feast worthy of your triumph! Or at least a better sandwich. As is often the case, we look to the peasant food of Europe for our high-tone fare. Ever heard of the pan bagnat? A humble sailor’s lunch from Nice, the pan bagnat travels exceptionally well. The name means “bathed bread” because a crusty, rustic loaf (even a leftover loaf a little past its prime) is slathered with olive oil and stuffed with super-juicy vegetables. And here’s the good part: This sandwich actually improves after being smashed in a CamelBak for three hours.

Essentially, the ingredients are similar to those in a Niçoise salad, but don’t let people tell you that you absolutely must use oilpacked tuna. You probably don’t have any, and it wasn’t an ingredient in the traditional sandwich, because tuna was too expensive. Anchovies are traditional, but you probably don’t have those either, and they’re rather polarizing, so do what you like. Use the best tomatoes you can find, because their flavor really stands out. Don’t use Romas or other paste tomatoes, because they’re not juicy enough. What’s really important is the bread. The mini paisano rolls from Sage Bakehouse (535 Cerrillos Road, 820-7243) are a good shape and size for a sandwich big enough to share; the full-size paisano makes enough for a crowd. Just pick a high-quality loaf with a solid crust. If it’s too tall, hollow it out a bit. You can even slightly grill the bread to firm it up—or just add a little extra flavor. PEAK BAGNAT − 1 loaf crusty bread − garlic cloves − olive oil − oil-cured olives, pitted (or a little tapenade) − oil-packed tuna or anchovies, crumbled or chopped − capers − red wine vinegar − big, juicy tomatoes, sliced − fresh basil and/or mint leaves − cucumber, peeled, seeded and sliced

like. Then take a clove of garlic, slice it in half and rub the cut edge all over the rough edges of the bread’s interior. You may need a couple of cloves. Sprinkle the bread with olive oil and a splash of vinegar. If you’re using oil-packed tuna or anchovies, use some of that oil. If you have anchovy paste, you can schmear it on now. Throw some capers in there if you like them. Cover the bread halves with tomato slices. (If you’re not using salty olives or anchovies, you can salt the tomatoes.) Top with a generous layer of basil and/or mint leaves. Keep going with the cucumbers and shallots. Add the egg if you want it. Finish with a layer of greens. You really can’t mess this part up. But you do have to wrap the sandwich carefully in several layers of plastic wrap and let it sit for a few hours, preferably with weight on it. You can leave it on the counter under a cast iron pan with a couple of tin cans in it, tuck it under heavier stuff in the picnic basket or just cram it into the bottom of your backpack. It needs at least one hour, preferably two or three, but it will still be great eight hours later. If you’ve weighted the sandwich, it’ll be easier to cut into wedges, so pack a knife. And while you’re at it, throw in a box or can of wine. This is what those things are made for. This is the exact occasion. Unwrap your Niçoise sandwich, crack a can of rosé and just look at that view. It’s freaking majestic.

Fall in love with New Mexico all over again

or a landlocked state dominated by high deserts, sandy buttes and mesquite mesas, New Mexico has a lot of water-based attractions. From Linda Lake near Carlsbad to the Blue Lake of Taos to the community pool at Bicentennial Park at home in Santa Fe, chances are, whatever your preference when looking to get wet, you can find the right spot. Like Nambé Falls, a short drive north of Santa Fe. Let’s say you want to hike through the woods and then relax in view of a lovely waterfall; you can do what my lovely wife Rose and I did: Head out of town and get on the 84/285
highway toward Española. Before you pass the Flea Market on the left, look farther up the hill as the Santa Fe Opera’s graceful wings pop out of the hillside. After a few more winding miles, glance to the left again to take in the camel-y rock formation. Stay the course and avoid the temptations of Camel Rock and Buffalo Thunder casinos, but do pop in to the Nambé Travel Center and top off your gas tank with some lowcost fuel. Farther on up the road, after the Pojoaque Market and Cities of Gold (another distraction that should be withstood or you’ll never get to the falls), take the turn-off to Nambé and the High Road to Taos. You won’t be going as far as Taos, but after the short walk up the hill to take

in the falls, you might be inspired by the 150-foot-tall dam that looms above the highest fall to follow the High Road all the way up to the Gorge Bridge, just to feast your eyes on what a 600-foot overhang looks like. But first things first. Nambé Falls. According to the Pueblo’s website, two ¼-mile trails “lead to the waterfalls from the Ramada Area. One trail climbs up the hill ending in a spectacular view of the waterfalls from above, while the other trail goes along and through the river winding up at a beach area at the lowest pool.” Once Rose and I got to the park entrance, we checked in with Wayne Vigil, the ranger on duty, and paid our fee. He explained how to get to the Ramada Area and added that we could drive on up to the lake after we were done at the falls. This was not always the case, as the effects of a nearby wildfire forced officials to close the lake for five years. In 2011, following the Pacheco Fire, “we closed the lake to fishing,” Vigil explains, “because it was all choked out.” Cleanup and reclamation began soon after the fire was dowsed, but the full range of activities were not resumed until this April. Asked about how the response has been, Vigil smiled and said, “It’s been fine. The good weather helps.” The website reminds you that you should expect to get wet. Well, that would be nice, and it was a warm day for May, but it was early spring and there had been snow in the mountains just a few weeks earlier, so we walked up to the overlook instead of splashing around beneath the falls themselves. Once the summer hits, however, you won’t likely be able to resist it. The site actually hosts three waterfalls: a longer one, about 100 feet tall, and above that, a shorter one about 75 feet. The third one is about 10 feet high. In 1976, the US Bureau of Rec-
lamation completed work on a dam above the falls to provide water for the Pojoaque Valley. The resulting 56-acre Nambé Lake reservoir offers boating, camping and fishing. The rec area is open Thursdays to Sundays, during the daytime only, and closes about mid-November for the winter. And if you really want to get gone, you can check in for overnight camping. Despite the temptation to extend our trip north through Truchas and over to the Taos Gorge Bridge, we wheeled out of Nambé and headed back home. One of those casinos we passed was sending out its siren song, and blissed-out on nature and sunshine and running short on endorphins after the initial flood of feelgood hormones during the hike, we pull into a parking lot and join the Pueblo grandmas settled beside their favorite money machine. If you close your eyes, the white noise of the slot machine “ching-chingching” almost sounds like a waterfall. But not quite … because now you know what the real thing sounds like.

Glitter Cave No, it’s not a raver thing
F
MARIA EG O LF- RO ME RO
inding your way to the mica mine near Ojo Caliente takes time, and when you do, its magic is elusive; you cannot completely capture the mica’s sparkle in your camera lens. When it comes to this glittering, well-kept secret, it’s a case in which a picture is not worth a thousand words. Beyond the walled-off mineral springs of Ojo Caliente Resort & Spa, with its manicured wildflower gardens, plush robes and spendy massages, is a reward that requires more effort, but less money. I’d argue that those who hike to the old mine site, located on public land accessible from the resort’s property, can get just as much of a recharge.
Climb up to the dark indentation in the hills to find a small cave that sparkles, from floor to ceiling. Striations of mica banding though the interior of the cave make it appear like the scene of a divine dance party where one of the gods dropped a glitter-bomb, and it exploded and buried itself in the dirt of the desert floor. The hillside home of the mica mine (known as St. Joseph’s Mine) is covered in shale that contains “books” of mica. The mineral term for this is “cleavage,” and the organized flakes of geometric shapes give off a metallic sheen from several feet away. The sparkle of mica has made it attractive to artists since prehistoric times, and it is often present in the natural paints used in the pottery of the Pueblos from the region surrounding these mines. According to the New Mexico Office of Archaeological Studies, some of the first historical mentions of these glitterpits in the Ojo area came from Zebulon Pike (of Pike’s Peak fame), who wrote in 1807 that the massive, thin sheets of mica pulled from the area made perfect window panes. Northern New Mexico homes used the silicate in place of glass until the late 1840s, when the American occupation brought other materials with it. In the days when the West was conquered, there were no glass windows in Santa Fe. To start on the fairly hefty trek, first you’ve got to get to Ojo Caliente. Head north on US 84/285 through Española, then take the turnoff just past Hernandez to stay on 285 North. About 15 miles later, watch for signs on the left to enter the spa grounds. To begin the walk, which will last about an hour and a half up and 45 minutes down, head through the parking lot of the spa toward the green metal gate that leads to the campground. If you go into the spa,
they will give you a very helpful map at the front desk. I would’ve gotten lost without it. Map in hand, head out the spa’s front door and turn to the left; you’ll see a rough dirt road heading up the mesa. That’s the one. Follow it for about two miles before finding the caves on your left, tucked into a hillside in an alcove just off the trail. Word of advice: Do not wear Converse, like I did; your feet will pay for it in blisters if you do. Around the hour mark, your effort pays off, and the rolling path ahead of you starts to shine with bits of reflective mica. Once you get near the cave, it’s all around. The walk itself is pretty spectacular. The view of the Sangre de Cristos, Wheeler Peak and friends fills the space between sky and horizon, and you are surrounded by classic desert geographical formations, from plateaus to arroyos. Hike this trail with water (or those little cans of Champagne, but definitely also water), and try to pick a sunny day. Clouds will really dampen the shiny effect of the mica. And make sure you really look at it, not just through your phone camera screen. The mica won’t look half as cool in your picture as it does in person. If you’re not quite up to the 4-mile round-trip jaunt to the mines, try a shorter hike from the trailhead between the main entrance and the restaurant, which leads to the un-excavated remains of P’osi Pueblo and offers a great view of the river valley. Make a day of it and soak your tired feet in the hot springs, or get some refreshments at the spa’s restaurant.
THE TRIP Getting there: Ojo Caliente is about an hour’s drive from the Plaza, 54 miles.
What then: Park at Ojo Caliente Mineral Resort & Spa, 50 Los Banos Drive. Grab a map of the trails from the front desk at the spa.
Don’t forget: Wear sturdy shoes and take lots of water.

Tripping Through History How we know the Southwest (and how the Southwest is seen) owes much to the iconic Fred Harvey
I
BY ELI Z A B E TH M I LL E R
n addition to providing the first fine dining experiences for train passengers traveling through the American West, and building a string of luxurious hotels across the Southwest, such as Santa Fe’s iconic La Fonda, which enticed westward travel for pleasure as much as for business, Fred Harvey’s hospitality extended to taking those Eastern Seaboard city-folk on comfortably equipped tours off the rails. His “Indian Detours” loaded passengers into Packard “Harveycars” to travel onto the “paths of the Indians, worn inches deep in solid rock by moccasined feet, the ways of the sandaled padres and steel-clad soldiers of Spain,” as one advertisement promised, continuing later that the “Southwest’s heart is no longer for the pioneer alone.” When we talk about Fred Harvey introducing Americans to America, this part was key. After Santa Fe was skipped over by the railroads, undermining its role as a major trade city, the city turned instead to tourism for a business. Then in 1914, World War I broke out in Europe, halting travel there. “All tourism for people of means was focused on the American West,” says Stephen Fried, author of Appetite for America: Fred Harvey and the Business of Civilizing the Wild West—One Meal at a Time. We’re not strangers to the Indian Detours route now; they followed the circuit often traveled by tour-
ists to the state. But with the resurgent interest in Fred Harvey history, people are visiting some of the Harvey hotels that still stand and even recreating his Indian Detours, as Las Vegas Citizens Committee for Historic Preservation will do for the second time this year for one day in mid-August. Indian Detours didn’t start until 1926, but they grew quickly to include sites still frequented by tourists: Bandelier, Puye, Pecos, Chaco, Mesa Verde and the surrounding Pueblos. And of course, along the way, tours stopped at Fred Harvey outposts for meals. Guides were Harvey Girl-style couriers regaled in the Fred Harvey image of Southwestern style: massive silver necklaces and concha belts atop pleated A-line skirts. That outfit became the way people from the East understood people in the Southwest dressed (and we are still suffering for it). Couriers were expected to have college-level knowledge of archaeology, Native American history and geology. “If you look at the history of the dissemination of the real story of America and the real story of diverse America, a lot of people got their first version of the American story that included all the Native American history before any white people came here through the detours, because the Fred Harvey company was really committed to telling a multicultural story and not to be telling a Christopher Columbus version of America, and that was pretty unusual at that time,” Fried says.
The tours ran just until the early 1930s, when they, along with so many other things, dried up in the Depression, but not without leaving an indelible mark on what would become Southwest tourism. “Fred Harvey had more impact on the hospitality industry than anybody in history,” says Ed Pulsifer, director of sales at La Fonda, a Fred Harvey hotel built and then expanded upon to handle blossoming tourism that followed the original path Route 66 took through town. The hotel served as one of the launch points for the Indian Detours. Harvey’s concept of fresh food and fresh coffee revolutionized the approach to rail-side dining. He partnered with the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad, which stocked menus on the train cars and telegraphed orders in ahead so meals were ready when passengers arrived for their half-hour stop. The hotels Fred Harvey’s company opened included the Castañeda (below) and Montezuma in Las Vegas, which still stand, as well as El Ortiz in Lamy and El Alvarado in Albuquerque, which have since been razed, for a total of 15 hotels, restaurants and newsstands just in New Mexico, though his establishments stretched from Chicago to Los Angeles. The Castañeda, built in 1898 in Mission Revival style, was the first of three luxury stops, along with the Alvarado and the Grand Canyon’s El Tovar. Renovations are currently underway, but Kathy Hendrickson, with Southwest Detours, says she’s already giving almost daily tours of the hotel. “People want to see it as it is now,” Hendrickson says. “Some of the rooms in there haven’t even been touched since 1899. … I don’t know if there’s anything else like it.” If you want a tour a little closer to home, La Fonda offers docent-led tours of their art and history. Tours begin at 10:30 am Wednesday through Saturday at the front desk.
THE TRIP Getting there: Las Vegas is about an hour’s drive from the Plaza, 66 miles.

hat would a summer without baseball feel like? “For me,” says City Councilor Ron Trujillo, “empty.” Trujillo is kind of synonymous with baseball Santa Fe. It’s been his favorite way to bask in the glorious afternoon sun and the rising early moon since forever. “It’s always been part of my life. Growing up, a lot of my friends were always going camping in the summer, and as I got older, I always wondered why. Mom said, ‘Ronnie, do you realize you were playing baseball all summer long?” The season sees Santa Fe parks filled with hundreds of kids and adults who swing the bat and run the bases practically every night of the week. And this year, Trujillo is behind an effort—albeit a low-key one—to bring sportsmanship back to the stands.

At his request, the City Parks and Recreation Division has installed about 20 signs at city ballfields featuring “Reminders from Your Child.” “I’m just a kid,” the signs read. “It’s just a game. My coach is a volunteer. The officials are humans. No college scholarships will be handed out today.” “Don’t get me wrong,” says Trujillo. “Your kid is out there, and you are rooting for them, and you want them to do good, but at the same time, too, I have seen far too many times at the game, parents out there cussing and saying things very derogatory about umpires and coaches.” The longtime coach and player says learning how to both win and lose gracefully is key. “That’s a big priority. Of course you want to teach them basics, but at the same time you want them to see that part of the fundamentals are good sportsmanship,” he says. “It goes off the field. It’s how you treat people, how you treat your fellow man. If you

THIS TEAM IS ON FUEGO!
Little League players at Franklin Miles park are part of one of Santa Fe’s two youth baseball leagues.
For a long time, Santa Fe’s summer sports scene was all about recreation leagues. Kids playing baseball or soccer. Their dads playing softball. Maybe a little pickleball or racquetball or tennis for kicks. But if you wanted to see a big team, you had to travel to Albuquerque or Las Cruces for college games. We had a semi-pro hockey team that played at the Chavez Center for a minute. But no pro football team would look our way. No NBA hoops. No Major League Baseball. And when a baseball league began calling itself the Pecos Baseball League (and not “our” Pecos, mind you, but the river flowing into West Texas), Santafesinos were skeptical. Some of them were downright hostile: A baseball team? Playing on a baseball field? With beer for sale? And hot dogs? We can’t have that. Well, they were wrong. This week marked the home opener for the fifth season of the Santa Fe Fuego, which draws the biggest crowds in the league to the historic Fort Marcy ballfield (you know, that place where you stand for hours before they burn Old Man Gloom). And with more than 50 scheduled home games, the team will be showing up nearly every night between now and the end of July, clad in their new turquoise uniforms.
“Here in Santa Fe, we all root for a specific team,” says Ron Trujillo, city councilor and bigtime baseball fan. “You are either a Demon, a Horseman or a Griffin, and we also are rooting for the UNM Lobos or we are rooting for the New Mexico State Aggies. … But Santa Fe really didn’t have a team that we could pretty much call our own, that everybody can rally around, and that is what the Santa Fe Fuego is all about. It has become Santa Fe’s team. For something that people thought was a bad idea, it turns out to be one heck of a good idea.” Returning fans will have to learn some new names. Coach Bill Moore made a dramatic departure before the end of last season, and the team traded away favored heavy hitter and first baseman Chevas “Chevy” Numata. But new coach Keith Wood and a whole new roster of players are ready to take a swing at things. Watch for pitcher Ryan Harper, the only former Fuego to stay on the team this year. Admission is $6. Most games begin at 6 pm. See santafefuego.com for the schedule. If you only attend a single game this season, make it SFR night on Wednesday, June 29. Or, take a baseball player home. The team is still looking for host families for the season. Contact Yvonne Sanchez at 204-2093.

have good sportsmanship playing a game, and this is for fun, it’s going to carry over into life and in your job.” The city’s youth baseball leagues are run by two organizations, the American Amateur Baseball Congress and the Santa Fe National Little League. While a recent column in the New Mexican lamented the death of its popularity overall, AABC President Tommy Martinez tells SFR that youth baseball is alive and well in his city. The local affiliate of the AABC has been seeing a surge lately, now up to almost 800 players, compared to about 600 last year. That means the group is fielding 60 teams, including four from Pecos, with T-ball for kids as young as 3 years old and baseball and softball for boys up to age 12 and girls up to 15. “We are thriving, and we are very happy,” Martinez says on a recent day when temperatures finally crept back up after a cold snap in mid-May that caused rescheduling of a handful of games. Watch for the AABC games at Ragle Park on Monday through Thursday nights. Today’s youth athletes get the weekends off so they can still camp some summer weekends. Youth who compete in the Little League play at Alto, Franklin Miles and Salvador Perez parks. “I think that baseball is the great American pastime, and people love the opportunity to be out at the ballpark in the summer,” he says. “It’s just a normal thing when parents and families together can come around and have a good time.”

Darkness takes mall mini golf to the next level
S
anta Fe Place might just be making a comeback. Two new storefronts face Rodeo Road, and just the other night, I heard some teenagers talking about waiting to catch the bus there. What were they doing? “Hanging out,” one says with just a tiny eyeroll to hint at the stupidity of my question. That’s a thing again. The mall’s arcade has been gone for practically as long as the name Villa Linda. Same story with the movie theater. For a good number of years, the reasons to go there seemed to be dwindling, regardless of your age demographic. Here’s two words that turned the tide for us, at least for one night: Glowgolf Games. (And yes, we looked in the dictionary, and we know that’s actually supposed to be three words. Humor them.) This miniature, indoor putting obstacle course that opened a few weeks ago occupies a narrow spot in the corner of the food court, on the south side of the mall. When you duck under the black plastic that hangs a few feet down in the doorway, the illusion doesn’t really set in. Conjuring up images of cheap funhouses in rickety carnival trailers, it looks like a dark mall store with a floor full of wedged-together rectangles of neon lumber. I’m wondering why this sounded like a great team-building exercise. But the excitement starts to mount when our group of intrepid SFR athletes each select a colored golf ball from a bucket. And boy, do those puppies look crazy in the black light. It all starts coming back to us: the rubber-coated putters in average, short and shorter sizes; the tiny pencil and scorecard on a clipboard, where you immortalize how many strokes you

take; the way you try to plan for the three times your ball will bounce off the edges before it stops where you intend. As we line up at the first hole, a spinning windmill, art director Anson Stevens-Bollen takes his shot, and the glowing ball starts up the orange tunnel, then returns with a vengeance right back to the tee. It’s going to be like that.
The darkness adds an element of difficulty that no one really anticipated. Sure, you can see the balls and the boundaries of the hole, but that’s about it. The dips and inclines intended to make each hole harder make it a lot harder when you can’t tell where they are. And we were happy to let a pair of young girls play through our group and get in front so that we could remember how much better it is to play by the real rules. Everyone takes one stroke at a time, and the balls bounce each other out of position. Way more fun that way. By the time we get to the second hole, we’re all using our clubs as dance props and whooping with great energy when someone actually puts the ball into the hole. We’re taking pictures of the vibrant wall art and making videos. A giraffe looking over the hole became my momentary spirit animal. Everything is better in a blacklight. The game also has the beauty of being one arena where kids can excel, even outright beat the very best efforts of the older ones. About the third hole, we decided to impose a 10-stroke mercy limit. Our 7-yearold companion, Natalie, never needed that many. And when she got tired of waiting for the rest of us to muddle through, she test-drove some of the holes we wouldn’t get to. Our group of five (minus the kiddo who ditched us) ended up playing six surprisingly challenging holes during the last hour before the place closed. Reporter Steven Hsieh diligently kept score, but we never added up the strokes or figured out who won. With an admission price of $10 per adult and $8 per child, we could have spent another hour if we had gotten there earlier. But our truncated game meant the glow didn’t have time to wear off. And we might just come back.

Run It Out
Boutique fitness is all the rage, but running never went out of style

n a cool Sunday morning, Eric Peters runs up a mountain incline near the Dale Ball Trails, steadily planting his feet between loose rocks. I lag behind, my lungs struggling to process the thin air. I notice my stride and breath shorten simultaneously until I eventually succumb to a walk. At a clearing with a view, Peters pauses to wait for me and four other runners. “Don’t forget to stop and look around,” he says with a smile. Earlier, we had taken a break to say hi to a red-winged blackbird.
Peters, a soft-spoken marathoner with a slim build, moved to Albuquerque two decades ago to train for the 1996 Olympic trials. “There are no mountains in Kansas City,” he explains. Although he finished a respectable 29th with a time of 2:21 (an average of 5 minutes and 23 seconds per mile), he didn’t make the team. But he never left New Mexico, eventually moving to Santa Fe and taking a job with the state’s Air Quality Bureau. These days, Peters is run coordinator for the Santa Fe Striders, a club that meets four days a week for track workouts (Tuesday), tempo runs (Thursday), long runs (Saturday), and trail runs (Sunday).

bership costs $20 a year per family. Most of the proceeds go to covering the group’s insurance. The club, established in 1978, also sponsors a youth running program and helps area nonprofits mark courses and time fundraising runs. Boutique fitness a la SoulCycle or Zumba reigns supreme, but running never went out of style. And you can’t do much better than running in Santa Fe. At 7,000 feet, the elevation is oppressive for newcomers such as myself. After moving here from sea level earlier this year, I couldn’t run for more than a few minutes without stopping and calling it a day, despite a looming marathon I had already signed up for prior to accepting a job with this paper. But over time, most bodies will acclimate to low oxygen levels. A barrier becomes a blessing. Ask any one of the elite runners who trains in Santa Fe, including Caroline Rotich, 2015 Boston Marathon champion. My first workout with the Striders falls on a Tuesday, which means intervals on Santa Fe High School’s running track. When I pull up to the parking lot, about 20 people, including Peters, an elementary school student and at least two septuagenarians, are already stretching or jogging warmup laps. Water bottles are scattered on the infield around an LED racing clock. “Okay, line up!” announces Jim Owens, club president. We run a mile, take a break. Then half a mile. Then a few quarter-miles. Between intervals, I ask my workout companions why they came out today. Trevor Kusiak, a receptionist at BODY of Santa Fe, moved here from Boston with his wife in 2010 for a “lifestyle change.” A runner since high school, Kusiak joined the club within two months of his arrival and has since been trying to talk his wife into following. Jeannie Hart joined the club after taking an intro class at the Running Hub, but not without some trepidation. “I’m shy,” she says, “and I didn’t believe they would tolerate a slow person.” She has been a member for four years. Before our last quarter-mile, Owens calls everybody to the starting line for weekly announcements. He asks first-timers to introduce themselves, and the group applauds for each of us. The Santa Fe Striders meet four days a week. Visit santafestriders.org for more information, including a race schedule. 9/15/05

Strangers in a Familiar Land SITE Santa Fe biennial invokes the shared experience across continents and the value of the overlooked
I
BY E LI Z A B E T H M I L L E R
n Paolo Soleri’s now-abandoned amphitheater at the Santa Fe Indian School, we see everything that SITElines.2016 is about. Free-form concrete is cast as art in biometric and geometric forms. Native aesthetics and architecture, as well as elements of an Elizabethan theater, inform the shape of a space originally built for the Institute of American Indian Arts as training ground for a generation of Native American playwrights, actors and dancers. As costs of upkeep have seen the theater fall into disrepair, the theater itself has become, as art so often is, “a stand-in for the geopolitical tensions that presently exist in the region and throughout the Americas,” the SITElines catalog reads. Those core themes—value of vernacular craft, Indigenous influence and a sense of interconnected experiences that cross the lines we draw on a map—run through the pieces of art assembled for the biennial. “There is no one theme of the show. There’s no one thing all of the artists share,” says Irene Hofmann,

Phillips director and chief curator of SITE Santa Fe. But those three themes become “the glue between the artists.” The lineup for this year’s biennial, titled Much Wider Than a Line and opening on July 16 at SITE Santa Fe, is assembled around artists whose work was seen as urgent and calling for a more visible stage. “The artists came first,” Hofmann says. “But [the title] is such a rich metaphor that it has tied so many of the artists together.” Some pieces celebrate the art in handcrafts and everyday items like capes and stools, which visitors will be able to wear and sit on. Some recall the influence of Indigenous cultures, bringing to the exhibition pieces in which an artist has made his own skin a canvas for a conversation about reclaiming Indigenous names in the face of a colonial whitewash of them, or filling a room with polymer panels in which float pieces of marine animal gut, hide and hair used by Native Alaskans. Some engage in the shared legacy that crosses all our political boundaries, of living on
land that has been conquered, traded and sold. Some alight upon several of these themes, finding their natural points of synthesis. SITE locally pioneered and has since upended the biennial model, 20 years ago launching the first international biennial of contemporary art in the United States, and revisiting that in recent years to focus solely on art from the Americas. Curatorial tasks also shifted from a single to a collaborative model. “If we were going to in fact pivot to a more indepth focus on the Americas, we also had to acknowledge the diversity of voices, voices that had not been part of the curatorial deliberations nor part of the list of artists in biennials largely, and so that led us to the vision that we had to really look at a collaborative process,” Hofmann says. “We would really cast the net much wider and do our homework in parts of the world that have not gotten the attention from the art world. … So that has led us into much deeper research into regions like Central and South America and in large part also north of us.”

Santa Fe, of course, is no stranger to the ideas at play in SITElines, and perhaps for that reason, Much Wider Than a Line fits symbiotically here. New Mexico provides a fitting home even for work from artists from the far northern reaches of the continent, icy and wet as they may be. But it has also inspired artists to create place-specific work that responds to this landscape. The contingency on those projects, Hofmann says, is that their research be thorough. “There’s nothing about our approach to this that resembles that kind of more surface read of a place,” she says. What we’ll see this year are the results of the five years Pablo Helguera spent researching New Mexican history for a mixed media installation and performance on the history of conflict in New Mexico and how that legacy runs counter to the glossy tourist images, and Jonathas De Andrade’s localization of a UNESCO project on race and class from 1952 that photographed rural Brazilians and then
showed other people those photos and asked questions like, “Which person do you think is smarter?” De Andrade revisited that concept by photographing 100 Santa Feans. The exhibition title lifts a phrase from Leanne Simpson’s book on the Canadian Indigenous people, the Nishnaabeg, Dancing On Our Turtle’s Back. Simpson’s statement, in full, reads, “Communication is required to jointly care-take this region, which is much wider than a line.” We must continue to engage in conversations around these themes and try to see connections rather than differences.

how of hands, people. Been out to the opera recently? The Santa Fe Opera, that is? Thought so. Sure, you drive north on US 84/285, just coming up over Tano ridge (what a vista!), then down the hill toward Tesuque, with off to the left, in the middle distance—a puzzling adobecolored pile topped by spidery white pylons. That of course, is SFO’s Crosby Theatre, and not presenting its most glamorous profile. For that, exit at Tesuque and follow along to SFO’s parking lot. Take a weekend morning when practically nobody’s about. Get out of the car and ogle the Sangres to the east, with Tesuque village tucked into its green valley. Look out west to the Jemez’ blue silhouette. Then note the SFO’s grand statement: a theater soaring simply in dramatic curves upward, the pylon structure suggesting a great ship of the desert. And do a repeat at night before a performance, with that sunset over the Jemez, shadows stealing over Tesuque. Maybe a full moon in prospect, plus the happy chance of a wee thunderstorm (dress warm and waterproof ). Catch the sound of sweet airs drifting on evening breezes. Enough with the purple prose already. You haven’t even bought a ticket yet, cheapskates. Go ahead. Buy one. After all, the SFO’s at the top of summer opera fests nationwide. It needn’t break the bank, what with decent seats in the 40buck range and discounts available for military, NM first-timers, seniors and Youth Night families. You
needn’t dress fancy. You’ll get gratis champers some Thrills and trills, duels and duets. Verona’s never nights and—payoff—a big listen at their winning been the same since.

Pick a Fest How to narrow down your summertime plans and avoid festival fatigue
I
t’s getting warm out there and that means tons more to do, but you’re a genius of a human with happy feelings all the time and a jam-packed social calendar. You can’t be appearing at subpar events with subpar music—you’ve got trendsetting to do and hearts to break. So what’s a local or visitor to do when the nights are warm and the days are also warm and events are cool while everything else is still warm? Use this guide and have a blast for the next three months and change, that’s what.
JUNE 10-26
DOMEFEST
dustry folk will select three Albums of the Year, and the bands who receive the coveted title will perform live for your listening pleasure. Cool as hell? We think so. More details to come? You know it!
Currents International New Media Festival currentsnewmedia.org
JUNE 18
Wherever your art tastes land, you owe it to yourself to at least pop in on the musical offerings at this year’s Currents. In addition to taking over El Museo Cultural with countless audiovisual pieces, organizers have put a renewed emphasis on creative musical expression and collaboration. “There’s going to be quite a bit more going on outdoors this year,” co-executive director Frank Ragano says. He points to projects such as artists Kyle Evans and James Connolly’s Cracked Ray Tube, a pop-up performance wherein old televisions have been converted into strange new instruments. “We have this other piece that’s wonderful and creepy called Duty,” Ragano adds. “This woman lines up seven people with muscle stimulators attached to their arms, and they’re holding bells, and she basically plays the people.” Wonderful and creepy is right, man. The fest runs several weekends and will also feature multimedia audio performances at Meow Wolf, including Everything Is Terrible, Zoe Keating and much more.

HEADMON ENTERTAINMENT & PRODUCTIONS
BY AL E X D E VO R E
According to Dome Fest’s music coordinator Jared Garcia, “I’ve wanted to grow the fest, and I was lucky enough to get sponsorship so I could have two music stages this year.” This is obviously great news for the annual event that pairs live bands with video projected onto massive portable geodesic domes. Garcia describes the addition of a second stage as ideal for its intimate nature but also says the sound quality will be top-notch. Performances abound from the likes of Lone Piñon, Future Scars, St. Range, Thieves & Gypsys (Garcia’s own band), and Denver, Colorado’s powerpop/garage outfit, The Outfit. If there’s a better non-skateboard way to enjoy DeVargas Park— known colloquially as “the skate park”—we’ve never heard of it. “I think we can show people who live here that we have great bands, and also that we can bring in these touring bands,” Garcia adds.
2016 Santa Fe Bandstand Everybody loves the annual Bandstand because it’s not only several weeks of music, the whole thing is free! It’s also outside, and have you been outside in this town in the summer? It’s magical. And though there may be some of the same bands appearing on the Plaza this year, series organizer
Michael Dellheim has some pretty cool statistics you might enjoy: “There are 40 percent new bands this year,” he says, “80 percent are New Mexico bands and 20 percent are out of state or touring bands.” Not too shabby. As for us, you’ll surely see us rocking to bands like post-rock act GRY GRDNS, funksters The Sticky or celebrated Americana songwriter Boris McCutcheon. You can listen to literally dozens more, but you’ll just have to go and see who they might be. Or, y’know, you could check the website: santafebandstand.org.
SEPTEMBER 16-18 6th Annual After Hours Alliance Festival Believe it or not, the once ramshackle squad of loosely affiliated promoters and artistic do-gooders has now entered its sixth year of operations and once again provides one of the cooler experiences in town with its annual three-day celebration of arts and music. This year’s offerings include events like DNVxSFE, a uniquely curated band exchange conducted in unison with Denver’s annual Underground Music Showcase wherein they send us their bands and we send ’em ours; the car- and bicycle-centric Art of the Machine on the Southside and the ever-popular closing day gathering of artist booths and bands playing across two stages in the Railyard, known as the Progressive Arts Fair. Music director Johnny Bell says this will be the biggest year for AHA yet. “I’m always surprised at how many applications we get that come from outside our particular circle,” he says. “That said, we’re only a couple weeks in and already have three times the number of applicants than we had total last year.” Be there.

He arrived in Santa Fe six years ago and directed Sylvia at the Playhouse last year. “There are a lot of good actors here in Santa Fe. I thought it would be nice to have a company that is actor-centered, as opposed to picking a play and then casting it based on auditions,” he explains. “I’m picking plays for my actors in order to showcase and challenge their particular talents.” The NM Actors Lab was incorporated into a nonprofit earlier this year in order to raise funds.

and Olivier award-winning playwright Yasmina Reza and stars Nicholas Ballas, Robert Nott and Jonathan Richards. Teatro Paraguas is the lucky venue to host the NM Actors Lab’s audacious first season, and Benedetti is cognizant of the strengths and weaknesses of mounting productions in the smaller space. “The theater only seats about 55 people, so the plays I chose have small casts that benefit from an intimate kind of performance,” he says. “All three are about relationships and are character-driven. It’s like chamber music; it’s all in the details.” The director says he is interested in the way theater explores how people treat each other and the ramifications of those behaviors on society. “With all three plays, I hope people feel they have been entertained in a meaningful way that provokes thought. The plays don’t have a message; they’re not polemic, but they are asking the audience to think about how the world works. The Elizabethans used to say the job of the poet is to teach delightfully. I really believe that in the sense of awakening thought processes and encouraging self-reflection.”

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES 2: OUT OF THE SHADOWS The super-weird/super-punk warthog/rhino villains Bebop and Rocksteady wreak havoc on NYC in this sequel to the 2014 flick, while the Ninja Turtles try to stop ‘em. Spoiler alert: They probably do. Somehow Will Arnett and Fred Armisen are involved with this thing, despite both being awesome. Why you should see it: C’mon, you guys … you aren’t even a little curious? Insert “secret of the ooze” joke here.
JUNE 10 THE CONJURING 2
Summertime movies for people who hate to think too hard BY ALE X D E VO R E
I
f there were ever a good time to be obsessed with film and/or going to the movies, it’s summer. The theater becomes a cool respite from the blazing heat and long days, the studios bring their bazillions of dollars to bear and those with kids have the means to keep ’em busy for just a couple hours. Plus, now that certain local places serve booze (like Jean Cocteau Cinema, 418 Montezuma Ave., 466-5528, and Violet Crown, 1606 Alcaldesa St., 216-5678), the tradition of summertime movie-ing has become pretty much the best. But what’s coming up—or just recently out—that you absolutely cannot miss? Try some of these on for size:
MAY 20 THE ANGRY BIRDS MOVIE Jason Sudeikis, Bill Hader, Maya Rudolph and others provide voices for the animated film based on the mobile game. No one asked for this thing, but it’s fairly certain your kids will force you to see it anyway, raising the question, “Why do we have kids?” Why you should see it: There has surely been so much money pumped into this thing that it’ll look cool. Right? Please tell us we’re right.
NEIGHBORS 2: SORORITY RISING Yet another movie no one asked for, this Seth Rogenled sequel welcomes the usually talented Chloë Grace Moretz onboard as a sorority outcast who moves in next door and parties too hard, which makes Rogen and his wife (Rose Byrne) bummed out as they try to sell their home. Zac Effron is in it, too, and we’re betting it’ll be quite literally the exact same movie as the first. Why you should see it: You’re probably going to be stoned at some point.
NOW YOU SEE ME 2 Daniel Radcliffe joins Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo and others in this magic-themed heist movie. If ever there were a movie for that one Sunday where you’re too exhausted to think, it’s this sequel. Why you should see it: If nothing else, it’ll be fun to see the crazy magic stuff. WALT DISNEY PICTURES
Beaten to Death
Ghost detectives Lorraine and Ed Warren (Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson) cross the pond to chase British ghosts in yet another jump scare-a-thon that will probably be a perfectly fine way to kill 90 minutes. Why you should see it: Horror movies are fun.
MAY 27 ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS Tim Burton does his Tim Burton thing to the Lewis Carroll classic, with Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter and Mia Wasikowska as Alice. Are you familiar with Burton’s work? Then you know what you’re getting into. Are you not familiar? You will be after this. Why you should see it: The late Alan Rickman provided some voice work in what was one of his last roles.
X-MEN: APOCALYPSE
If you read the stellar X-Cutioner’s Song run of Marvel comics from the early ’90s you’ll be extra-pumped on the arrival of arch-villain Apocalypse in the long-running X-Men series of films. If not, it seems like we’ve agreed as a culture to have nonstop comic book films tying up the big screen indefinitely anyway, so don’t fight it. Bryan Singer directs the massive cast, which includes Jennifer Lawrence, Olivia Munn, James McAvoy and Oscar Isaac. Why you should see it: Because it’s X-Men. Duh.
JUNE 3 ME BEFORE YOU Emilia Clarke of Game of Thrones fame stars in this sadsap movie about a paralyzed guy who hates being alive but probably finds a reason to live after all. We’re guessing the reason is love. Puke. Why you should see it: Date night’s a-comin’ and this’ll be like having a one-way ticket to Bone City.
ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS
WARCRAFT Heavy CGI marks this game-to-film adaptation starring Travis Fimmel, Paula Patton and Ben Foster. If you liked the game you’ll probably be dropping your pocket protector in heated anticipation. If not, think of it as a dumb fantasy movie that will probably be very pretty. Why you should see it: We’re all making jokes now, and nobody is saying it’s gonna’ be Casablanca, but the trailers actually make Warcraft seem like a decent fantasy film.
JUNE 17 CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE
POPSTAR: NEVER STOP STOPPING Andy Samberg lampoons the pop music world with his Lonely Island cohorts and, sadly, Joan Cusack. Why you should see it: So you can let everyone know you were in the theater when the worst movie of all time played.
Dwayne “The Scorpion King” Johnson joins Kevin “They Still Let Him Make Movies?” Hart for this sure-to-be absurd action/comedy movie from the director of We’re the Millers. Why you should see it: Say what thou wilt, the Rock has a certain magnetic charisma.

FINDING DORY
THE SECRET LIFE OF PETS
Thank goodness Pixar keeps churning out these adorable movies wherein anthropomorphized fish/cars/planes/ toasters (just kidding, The Brave Little Toaster slays Pixar on their best day) discover they belong someplace, even if life is sometimes hard. Ellen Degeneres voices the forgetful flounder. Why you should see it: It’s Pixar, and isn’t seeing Pixar movies the law?
Oh boy, another animated movie about how things and creatures that we don’t think can talk do in fact talk when we’re not around. Louis CK plays a dog named Max, bummed out by his owner’s new dog (Eric Stonestreet of Modern Family). Other dogs and cats also do things.
JULY 15 GHOSTBUSTERS The beloved franchise goes all-female with a cast made up of comedy geniuses like Kate McKinnon and Kristin Wiig as well as less dimensional actresses like Melissa McCarthy and Leslie Jones. Bridesmaids’ Paul Feig directs. Why you should see it: You know you will, don’t fight it. We bet there’ll be some laughs despite the first trailer being the most disliked YouTube video in history. That was probably just men’s rights activists, though, who we like to refer to as “fucking assholes.”
GHOSTBUSTERS
JUNE 24 INDEPENDENCE DAY: RESURGENCE Even Will Smith had the presence of mind to stay away from this preposterous sequel wherein Bill Pullman, Jeff Goldblum, Judd Hirsch and Brent Spiner face off against violent aliens, with President Sela Ward in tow. There will probably be lasers. Why you should see it: Ward is a babe and a half, and alien movies are usually at least a little exciting.
JULY 1 THE BFG
JULY 22
CELL John Cusack and Samuel L Jackson hate cellphones in this Stephen King adaptation, and that’s a good thing because those dang phones turn everyone who has one into a zombie ... sort of. Either way, it’s obviously a really timely and apt observation about our tech-obsessed society wrapped in a brilliant package that will in no way be stupid. Why you should see it: One day, Cusack and Jackson won’t be around anymore.
AUGUST 19 BEN HUR The novel was written by a New Mexico governor named Lew Wallace, the original movie starred Charlton Heston, and now the whole damn thing has been remade with star Jack Huston, who is the grandson of John Huston. This is a terrible idea. Why you should see it: You suck at choosing movies and subscribe to the idea that nothing is sacred. You are why movies are the way they are. An American kickboxer is out for a revenge fight with the dudes who killed his brother. What better way to do that than fly to Thailand and train with Jean-Claude van Damme? Buying a gun and shooting them? Naw, that’s not the hero’s journey at all! Why you should see it: JCVD is all the reason you need, turkeys.
Why you should see it: Your kids made you. End of list.
STAR TREK BEYOND
Why you should see it: You sure as shit won’t be bored, and also, it’s in space.
JULY 8
Why you should see it: You never developed your sense of humor beyond thinking that Sausage Party is a clever movie title. Ugh.
KICKBOXER VENGEANCE
Why you should see it: Roald Dahl was awesome, and the trailer showcases a kind of Baron Munchausen vibe.
Why you should see it: Because you hate good movies.
Seth Rogen penned this R-rated animated “comedy” about supermarket foodstuffs that grapple with the existential. Good Lord, why?
For a movie about prehistoric animals that were supposed to go extinct, they’ve sure drawn this shit out for five effing movies. Five! Anyway, in this iteration, John Leguizamo’s rat-creature kid loves acorns so much that he somehow winds up in space with aliens (what!?) and somehow causes that meteor that killed everything; you know the one. Does this mean the end of the franchise is in sight? Please God, let it be so. Denis Leary, Ray Romano and Queen Latifah provide support as various other animals.
Idris Elba joins Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto for another installment in the JJ Abrams-led series revitalization. Plot details are sketchy for now, but we bet they get wrapped up in some huge deal thing that threatens the universe as we know it but is then stopped right when we think it won’t be and … wait a minute … we just figured out how all movies ever work!
This is the third film in a series about murder being legal for one night a year. Setting aside how fully ridiculous that is, the plot revolves around a presidential candidate (Elizabeth Mitchell) who finds herself trapped in this reality. James DeMonaco (who wrote and directed the first two movies) returns, whether we want him to or not.
SAUSAGE PARTY
ICE AGE: COLLISION COURSE
Though fans of the Doom video game regard these three letters very differently, Steven Spielberg knows it’s a Roald Dahl book about a friendly giant who helps kids have nice dreams. Mark Ryland (Bridge of Spies) plays the titular giant and probably encounters obstacles to overcome and villains to thwart.
THE PURGE: ELECTION YEAR
AUGUST 12
METRO-GOLDWYN-MAYER
COLUMBIA PICTURES
Why you should see it: Because you think the idea of a poodle who likes metal is funny, which makes you a profiler of the worst order.
Why you should see it: You’re gonna do it, why pretend you won’t?
JULY 29 JASON BOURNE Matt Damon returns as the amnesiac CIA operative to make Jeremy Renner feel like the piece of shit he is (don’t worry, Renner isn’t in this one) while he snaps some necks and rips some throats. Tommy Lee Jones and Julia Stiles are there, too. Paul Greengrass returns as director. Why you should see it: We all thought Damon was really only OK until the Bourne movies, so give it a shot.
AUGUST 5 SUICIDE SQUAD DC Comics sure knows how to muck up a universe that is arguably much cooler than Marvel’s. Suicide Squad finds a cadre of villains, from The Joker and Harley Quinn to Deadshot, forced into governmental servitude. We’re still pissed about that “Damaged” tattoo on Jared Leto’s Joker and word on the street is that the film underwent lastminute reshoots. Ruh-roh.
BEN-HUR
AUGUST 26 BLOOD FATHER Mel Gibson takes a breather from his rampant anti-Semitism (yeah, we remembered) to star as an ex-con who tries to help his daughter escape a cartel. Yeesh. Why you should see it: This thriller will probably be pretty fun to watch, honestly.
SEPTEMBER 2 THE LIGHT BETWEEN OCEANS Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander star as a childless couple living on some godforsaken rock of an island with a lighthouse in post-WWI Australia. When a boat washes up on the shore with a baby inside, Vikander is all about it, but surely other things will have to happen? Bad things, maybe? Why you should see it: You can tell your friends you’ve always been a fan of slowly paced period dramas with more substance than explosions. This will be a lie, of course, but you can still say it.

IN WITH THE NEW That in-with-the-new vibe shines in the local art scene lately, so the opening of a new contemporary gallery makes a lot of sense. Frank Rose, curator and director at form&concept, says the goal is “showcasing really wonderful local artists that are using a variety of mediums that aren’t well represented in Santa Fe.” Made in the Desert will be the first exhibit in the space, and we can expect to see works in mediums from ceramic to neon by artists who are doing some big-pond, current things, like painting the Ace Hotel in downtown Los Angeles. Rose says, “I think it will be a really exciting show.” (Maria Egolf-Romero)

MUSIC MUSIC
Horseplay
Baltimore weirdos change your definition of rock once, with a decidedly improvisational bent and enough garage-like enjoyable roughness around the edges to be novel (and still musical) in its noisier noise rock moments. This setup can obviously make for a high-energy live show, and Horse Lords hints at the promise of one of those life-changing experiences for which music seems to be known. Bernstein describes their onstage antics as “high-energy” and “an outgrowth of what we do on the album,” which means a certain level of improv can and should be expected, though any local fans (or new converts) can also get pumped on their ability to reproduce the sounds of their recorded material. It’d almost be hard to believe they can get it right live, given the complexity and layered songwriting, but it sure sounds like they know what they’re doing. “It’s an ecstatic affair, and we can put people into a trance-like state,” Bernstein points out. Sold. Now we’ve just gotta get over there and find out how. (Alex De Vore) HORSE LORDS 8 pm Thursday, May 26. $5. Radical Abacus, 1226 Calle del Commercio
When someone compares your vocals to Janis Joplin’s, you say thank you, but Danielia Cotton, a New Jersey-born blues artist, doesn’t want to be compared to anyone. Well, except for maybe her jazz-singing mother, who inspired her career. “My music is the story of my life,” Cotton says. The vocalist got her start singing in a gospel group at church but listened to rocky stuff like Judas Priest at home. She says live performance gives her an opportunity to commune with her audience. “My hope is that my stories are some of the audiences’ stories,” she says, “and together we bond and give a little bit to each other to walk away with.” (MER) Danielia Cotton: 7 pm Saturday, May 28. Free. Railyard Plaza, Market and Alcadesa streets, 414-8544
MUSIC LOCKED AND LOADED The month is coming to an end, and the way we see it, that means you probably deserve a treat. And yeah, you could booze it up anyplace around town, but good music on a Tuesday isn’t always easy to come by. As such, heed our words and do these things we say: Pop in on country band The Gunsels at Evangelo’s. Head honcho Greg Butera has a real Hank Williams thing going on and leads some of the finest instrumentalists in town. “We have the top country jazz players in Santa Fe, with room for dancing,” Butera says. “We also have free jambalaya.” Zam!

“Our name is actually a Lord of the Rings reference,” Horse Lords’ saxophonist/percussionist Andrew Bernstein says. Hailing from Baltimore, the band plays Thursday evening at Southside DIY venue/art space Radical Abacus. Bernstein is clear to add, “Not that it’s especially important to us. I mean, we like Lord of the Rings, but … yeah.” If the guy sounds a little weird, it might be because he is, but we say this in a good way; not that we think Tolkien fans are automatically weird, but … yeah. It’s kind of like how when we describe the rock-ish four-piece’s newest effort, Interventions (out on Brooklyn imprint Northern Spy), as weird, it’s a good thing. Horse Lords comes along as a sort of evolution of sorts to the sounds of mathy bands like Battles but with harsher edges a la XBXRX or Flying Luttenbachers. Oh sure, they’ve got the traditional guitar/bass/drums setup, but they’ve got a bit too much going on when it comes to time signatures, polyrhythms and electronics-infused experimentalism to be called postpunk, and this certainly isn’t some noodly progged-out jazz-fusion shitshow—it’s listenable and bizarre all at

HEATHER ATSYE
Paz on Earth Growth in hip-hop and what it means to self-examine BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
P
ablo Paz, aka Adrenaline Truth, aka DJ Shatter, wanted to be an animator once upon a time. “But as I went along schoolwise,” he says, “I realized I wasn’t really artistically inclined in that way, but I still wanted to make stuff.” Music, specifically hip-hop, had always been a creative respite for the Omaha-born, Santa Fe-raised Paz, however, so when he returned home after receiving a degree in creative media from the University of Hawaii and training under an audio engineer who he would “rather not name,” he re-enlisted with his old crew, Dezert Banditz. “The Zs are just for fun,” he jokes, “and we were—or we are—one of the bigger crews in the state.” Indeed, like a New Mexican version of the much-ballyhooed Wu-Tang Clan formula, Dezert Banditz remains a loosely connected tribe of groups, MCs, DJs, beat-smiths, producers and various hangers-on. If hip-hop is the product, Dezert Banditz is the factory. For his part, Paz’s MC and DJ efforts are certainly available for any and all performers, but the bulk of his best work seems inextricably linked to SUBLMNL RNSONS, a three-piece with which he performs alongside Cas Uno (Leroy Cardenas) and Mr. UnXnown (Jose Granados). They’re well known to Santa Fe’s hip-hop elite as prolific writers and producers, and rarely will a show within that genre take place without one or all of them onboard. “It’s been the project that I’m usually the most focused on,” Paz says. “But lately I’ve really wanted to shift that focus more to the craft of production.” He speaks of his DJ alter-ego, Shatter, a party facilitator who exists in stark contrast to Paz’s soft-spoken and almost shy nature. As a person, Paz is clearly very intelligent, but it would appear he climbs into his own head about how he presents himself to the

world at large. As a DJ and performer, he comes alive and takes on an almost completely different persona. Still, he’s nothing if not self-aware of his own potential artistic growth. “SUBLMNL has songs from over the years that people still like, and we’ll still play those songs because people like ’em, and I get it, but I’m not sure how much I still agree with the message in those anymore, [and] anyway, I’m not writing lyrics as much these days,” he points out. “I’m more focused on DJing, not just because I want my co-MCs to get more of the spotlight—and I know I can count on them to show up and fill in those blank spaces—but because when I step up to the mic, I want to have something to say, even … it doesn’t matter if it’s not important to the rest of the world, it still has to be important to me.” During his informal mini-hiatus, he’s sharpened his DJ skills and broadened his repertoire by performing at various regional hip-hop showcases. “They can be really long and teach you that you have to know all kinds of styles,” he says. “So I DJ with a rapper’s perspective because when I was doing more MC stuff, the DJ was always the wild card, and they

should be the conduit through which all the music flows.” His refreshingly communal-minded philosophy from within a field that seems to foster a singleplayer mentality has obviously served him well, as he appears among this year’s SFR Best of Santa Fenominated artists in the DJ category and also helms the decks for a massive show Friday at The Underground, which features NYC artist Ricky Bats, Rill, Nspire, Ben Davis, SBLMNL RNSONS and others. “I’m all about figuring out what’s feasible, and when you get a little older and think about how maybe you didn’t reach whatever level of success you thought you would … I mean, I have some cred, but I just don’t see myself rapping for another 20 or 30 years,” Paz notes. “This city’s got a vibrant music culture right now, and I could easily continue rapping, but DJing had me right from the get.”

THE CALENDAR
I am a 40-year-old woman; I came out when I was 16. When I was 17, I met M and we dated for eight years. M was a horrible human being—emotionally and occasionally physically abusive. M still sends me the occasional (creepy) e-mail, wishing me a happy birthday or giving me updates on people I don’t really recall. I don’t respond. A few years back, I got an e-mail saying that M was now “Mike.” I think it’s important to use the pronouns people want you to use for them. But Mike wasn’t Mike when he was in my life. Changing his pronoun when describing him feels like I’m changing my identity—my first real long-term relationship was with someone I thought was a woman. Mike caused a lot of damage in my life—does he get to fuck up (or complicate) my identity, too? It’s not like the subject of Mike comes up daily. When it does, I feel like a liar if I use “she,” using “he” makes me feel like I’m lying about myself, and stopping to explain everything derails the conversation. And it’s not like I’m being a great trans ally when a conversation gets sidelined by something like: “Well, random coworker whose only trans reference is Caitlyn Jenner, my ex is trans and he’s a psychopath.” -Mike’s Hard Lemonade Block Mike’s number, block his e-mail address, block him on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, LinkedIn, Periscope, Kik, FuckStick, WhatsApp, CumDump, etc., etc., etc., ad infinitum. And stop talking about Mike—don’t discuss him with random coworkers, casual acquaintances, or friends. If you absolutely, positively must discuss him with someone— a true intimate with a right to your relationship history, who needs to be sensitive to the abuse you suffered—you can be a good ally to other trans people (not your abusive trans ex) by carefully using nouns and descriptors in place of your asshole ex’s preferred pronouns. So instead of “I met him when I was still a teenager,” you say, “I met the abusive piece of shit when I was still a teenager.” Instead of “It took me eight long years to get away from him,” you say, “It took me eight long years to get away from that asshole psychopath.” What I’m gonna say next will get me slammed on Twitter (heavens), MHL, but I’ve learned not to read my @s, so here we go… If using male pronouns when referring to your ex is gonna complicate your life—really complicate it—if the “transitioned later” part is likely to get dropped during a game of interoffice telephone, if the qualifier about your ex having identified as a woman while you were together is likely to get dropped too, and if either of those drops could lead coworkers or casual acquaintances to assume something about you that isn’t true, i.e., that you’re into dudes and therefore gettable by dudes, and if that erroneous assumption could result in your having to deflect awkward and/or unpleasant advances from confused males, or if having your status as a Gold Star Lesbian questioned could induce orientational dysphoria… I don’t see the nontheoretical harm in you—and only you—misgendering Mike on the rare occasion when a convo about him can’t be avoided. You don’t live near him, no one you know knows him, and the misgendering is unlikely to get back to him. The adage “no harm, no foul” applies here. But it would be simpler, easier, and ally-ier if you sidestepped the issue by not speaking to anyone about your asshole ex ever again. I am a fortysomething bi woman happily married to a newly transitioned 50ish trans woman. I have a history of putting myself

about a bit (safely) before our relationship, but we have been monogamous since we met (except for a disastrous threesome). My wife hasn’t put herself about and has slept with only myself and one other to whom she was also married—and that threesome. She understands that I have a high libido and mostly she doesn’t. Our sex life is loving and good mostly, but I do want more. There have been discussions on opening up our relationship—but essentially I want to and she is resistant. I want to do this with transparency and with men (mostly), but I don’t feel this is realistic emotionally for her given some conflict we’ve had over this issue. Is cheating the only answer here? -Never Overly Terrified I can see how it might be emotionally tricky for a recently transitioned trans woman—that would be your wife—to cheerfully sign off on her second wife sleeping with men (mostly) and with transparency (ethically). But if you absolutely, positively can’t commit to sleeping with only her for the rest of your life, NOT, and you can’t get her permission to sleep with others… then, yes, there’s cheating. There’s also fantasy, masturbation, repression, sublimation, self-sacrifice—and divorce. I’m a queer woman. When I entered my 30s, I realized that I was more queer/bi than I had previously allowed myself to be, and I started exploring my attraction to cis heterosexual men. Five years later, and I’m in an incredible GGG relationship with a cis het male. He’s everything I have ever wanted in a partner: sexy, funny, feminist, and smart. We have full disclosure about sexuality and kinks, no complaints there. What I do have trouble with is navigating his family and friends, twin social circles composed of heterosexuals who fall into stereotypical gender roles. I spent my teens and 20s fully submersed in queer/trans circles with like-minded feminist hippies who are not hung up on the gender binary. My partner’s friends are fundamentally good people, but they see nothing wrong with “old fashioned” misogyny. I am often interrupted, talked over, and “mansplained” by my partner’s male friends. And while I am a pretty friendly person, I can’t get a foot in the door with the women in his friend circle. My notions on feminism and equality are way too out there, so I tend to keep to myself in a corner during parties in order to avoid starting an argument. How do I navigate this weird heterosexual world that I don’t understand? I’ve tried to explain my feelings to my partner, but I think he has a hard time relating, as he is a heterosexual cis male and was raised as one. How do I keep from losing my cool when someone starts to mansplain to me? I may be in a heterosexual romantic partnership, but I am still a queer lady at heart. -Bi Lefty Encounters Cis Hets Some people “fall into stereotypical gender roles” because that’s who they are, BLECH, and what you perceive as the thoughtless embrace of the gender binary can in some cases be an authentic expression of gender identity. That doesn’t excuse misogyny and mansplaining, of course, but not everyone who embraces seemingly stereotypical gender roles is a dupe who needs a good talking to from the new queer girlfriend of an old straight friend. That said, if going to parties with your cis het boyfriend’s gender-normative friends makes you miserable… don’t go to those parties. Or if you must go, drag along a leftist-hippie-queer friend who can sit in the corner with you and marvel at the mansplaining manmuggles and their clueless lady friends who aren’t interested in your thoughts on feminism and equality.

THE CALENDAR Sabores Flamencos Gala benefitting
with James Karen
June 27, 2016 • 6:00 p.m. ALBA FRANCESCA
hosted by
Restaurant Martin Festivities will include a performance by EntreFlamenco, fabulous four-course meal, selected wine, live music, and a silent auction.
Veteran actor James Karen has been a part of film, television and theater history since the 1920s, and his body of work is massive. He is one of those actors everyone kind of knows, even if they think they don’t, and he has worked alongside some of the biggest stars ever. Karen is living history and a delightful reminder that there once was such a thing as the golden age of cinema. Currently, he is in the spotlight for NOTFILM, a documentary about Buster Keaton and Samuel Beckett’s bizarre collaborative stab at avant-garde cinema, a project with which Karen was intimately involved. Though he was originally slated to travel to Santa Fe for a Q&A session after the doc screens at Center for Contemporary Arts (1050 Old Pecos Trail, 982-5050) on Thursday, May 26, sadly, Karen will be unable to attend. We interviewed him anyway, because he rules. (Alex De Vore) When and how did you get into acting? Well, I’m very old. I served in World War II, so you can tell from that that I’m in my 90s. Other than that—and I mainly goofed around with all the other soldiers—I’ve never done anything else in my life. We would go to the movies when I was young and it never ocurred to us to check what time they started. You’d go in and sit down when you did, and that’s where you’d start from. So you’d wait for it to end and start up again and when you reached the point in the film when you had come in, your father would say it was time to go. And I knew I wanted to be an actor, I knew I wanted to be onstage, and so I was. I never once thought of not being an actor. And so I was onstage. Then at some point, my wife and I drove out to Los Angeles thinking we’d have a brief lark and we started to work and we never made it back to New York.

What kinds of roles do you wind up taking on these days? Old people. Surprise! Or maybe it’s not a surprise. I’ve been at this a long time. Now, do I think I’ll ever stop? Oh, if I die, I suppose. Or maybe if I am pelted to death after a particularly bad performance. I’m 92 now, and I think I will probably just keep going until I’m done. What can you tell us about NOTFILM? Well, it’s a very mysterious film, the one that Buster made. And it’s diffused. Now Buster, who was not an intellectual but who was one of the great directors, or maybe ... he was truly one of the great auteurs, I suppose is what I want to say—he wrote and directed and produced and starred in all of his films, and here he was working with a writer like Samuel Beckett who had never done a film before. Like I said, Buster was not what you’d call an intellectual, he was a filmmaker. So it’s a wonderful film, the documentary is, too, and it’s written by Beckett, right? And this was the only time, I think, that he had ever come to America, and it was to work with Buster. So Buster and I showed him around New York and looking back, I can say that it was a wonderful time in all of our lives.

ndian food doesn’t have to be a pile of indistinguishable mush, and the whole concept of assembling your own dosa proves that it can also be fun as an evening of DIY if you go to the right restaurant. Located just a door down from Maria’s, Paper Dosa couldn’t be a more opposite approach to City Different dining. Order a dosa, of course, and be treated to a paperthin, Indian-style crepe that’s so big there’s no way it fits on the plate. Can’t choose? Try the traditional masala, potatoes blended with turmeric, caramelized onions, red chile, mustard seeds and cashews ($10). Each comes with two housemade chutneys, a mint-green coconut concoction and a tomato basil rendition, along with a cup of spicy lentil soup. A definite don’tmiss on the menu is the onion pakora, fried onions and jalapeños served with an eggplant sauce ($8). And as you’re wondering whether you’ll need one or two Tums on the way home, calm down your gut with Rasmalai ($5), a fresh cheese dessert drenched in sweet cream with rosewater and cardamom. Nom.

FOOD
Stellar service and seriously fun food make this place a special treat BY GWYNETH DOLAND t h e f o r k @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
P
eople often ask food critics: What’s the best restaurant? It’s incredibly frustrating because this question is almost impossible to answer. It’s like asking someone to pick a favorite pair of shoes. Shoes for what? Dancing, golfing, hiking or looking devastatingly sexy? The better question would be more specific: What’s the best place for really hot red chile, the best pad Thai, a cheap lunch downtown, the prettiest patio, a restaurant where no one will mind if the kids run around or the best place to celebrate a special occasion (especially if someone else is paying)? Well, if I had an occasion to celebrate this week, I’d ask you to take me to State Capital Kitchen (500 Sandoval St., 467-8237). The food is creative and interesting, the atmosphere is relaxed and charming, and the service is lavish and pampering. It’s perfect for making someone feel special, but the food is so good that it can turn a regular Tuesday night into an occasion. This is what I’m talking about: Almost all of the tables were full when my date and I showed up about 15 minutes early for a 7:30 reservation one recent night, so we were invited to have a seat in a cozy banquette in the foyer. Sitting on a low table in front of us was a tray holding a bottle of bubbly and a dozen flutes. They must be expecting a party, we thought. Then a cheery server came by and offered us some cava. She popped the cork and filled two glasses, and we toasted to a much-needed kid-free date night—but then I had a pang of paranoia: Do they recognize me? Do they know I’m here to write a review? Why else would we get this special treatment? For the first half of the evening, I was sure I’d somehow been found out. Why else would all these people be so attentive, so nice? What else could possibly motivate the bartender to leave his perch and swing by our table, pick up some dirty plates and refill our water glasses? Over the course of the meal, though, we came to believe we weren’t being treated any differently. Other tables seemed to get the same level of attention: kind and knowledgeable, indulgent but not obsequious. State Capital Kitchen offers unusually good service and the food to match. The menu is full of dishes that present familiar ingredients in novel ways, such as a plate of perfectly bronzed scallops that came plated with soft pillows of ravioli filled with foie gras ($33). Cooking melts the filling so that a fork, piercing the pillow’s exterior, causes a minor geyser of molten foie gras to erupt on the plate. It’s fun to pop the foie gras balloons. By the third ravioli, however, one does wonder whether the best use of foie gras is having it Jackson Pollock all over a plate and leaving a diner to mop it up with pieces of
Exciting selections from State Capital Kitchen’s dim sum cart. Below: Scallops and foie gras ravioli cooked to perfection.
ravioli that are not particularly absorbent. (A similar trick is employed with more success in the exploding passion fruit balls from the dessert menu: bite-sized alabaster spheres of white chocolate that immediately melt to release a burst of sweet-citrusy passion fruit liquid. They are marvelous.) A generously sized starter of duck liver toast involved a thick schmear of mild, smooth liver. The nest of frisée that topped the toasts was a surprisingly good foil for the richness of the liver. And the mushroom ragout topping was very tasty, although camouflaged on the similarly colored liver. We only wished that the toasts were thinner and toastier.
A simple green salad was exceptionally good, with big pieces of beautiful baby lettuce lightly dressed and topped with a quenelle of chèvre ($9). My date wished the cheese were spread all over the salad, but I liked spearing a few leaves and then dragging them through the soft chèvre. The chicken roulade ($29) was remarkably moist inside, maybe because it was wrapped with crispy chicken skin. It came with a golden shredded potato cake that tasted as if it were made by someone who admires McDonald’s hash browns but wanted to make a real version. The restaurant bills itself as “artisanal American dim sum,” and a cart does come around the dining
room to offer small plates. The night we were there, the cart didn’t seem to come around often enough to count on it for making a full, timely meal, but do not miss sampling its delights as a supplement to whatever else you order. Prosciutto-wrapped dates filled with blue cheese offered a sweet-salty pop. Deep-fried bites of brandade had a mild flavor and silky texture not often found in a dish made from dried fish. And delicately deep-fried quail legs were delicious, dipped in a thick red curry sauce tinged with vanilla. The plates are small, but so are their prices (all under $10). It may take serious effort, but do try to save room for one of the clever desserts. The chocolate sphere is an orange-sized brown globe that transforms as the server pours a warm pistachio sauce over it, causing the top to melt away and reveal a filling of chocolate mousse and cherry ice cream ($9). It’s a big dessert, and the flavors are almost overwhelmingly intense, but it’s worth it for the presentation and fun of discovering the contents. The “experience” factor here is high, and that makes SCK a worthy destination, but it wouldn’t be successful if the presentations weren’t backed up with high-quality local ingredients so skillfully prepared. How many literal explosions (foie gras, passion fruit, chocolate bombe) are too many for one meal? As a gimmick, maybe it gets old, but thankfully the kitchen doesn’t rely on just these technical surprises. We left feeling like we’d overindulged, but we wouldn’t have wanted to miss anything that came to the table. For $125, we had two starters, two mains, one big dessert and two dessert bites, plus three plates from the dim sum cart and two glasses of wine. Looking at the bill later, it appeared that the server forgot to charge us for the dim sum, but the options change nightly and run $2-$6. It was a lot of food for the money and made more worth it by the inventive food and indulgent service. It’s a good value for such an enjoyable experience.

Play Nice Gosling and Crowe try their best to be funny by alex de vore alex@sfreporter.com
It’s only fair to give kudos to Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling—actors who generally tend to take serious roles— for their attempts at slapstick, but the overall cheese factor of The Nice Guys, the newest film from director Shane Black (Iron Man 3), keeps it from ever achieving the levels of cool to which it so obviously aspires. It’s 1977 Los Angeles, a smog-laden playground for criminals and “filmmakers,” a world wherein porno theaters are still a thing and Jackson Healy (a straight-faced
yet enjoyably ridiculous Crowe) can be hired to break the arms of all your problems. When a client hires Healy to help her lose a tail, he is unwittingly thrust into a corrupt world of pornographers, politicians and assassins, and when the client goes missing and the villains come a-looking, Healy teams up with Holland March (the comedically acceptable Gosling), a widower and former cop who tackles private detective work for lonely old folks. March knows better than to take advantage of the elderly but does so anyway, in order to support his daughter Holly (yet another precocious teen played well
SCORE CARD
Kim Bassinger stops by for a pointless role as the head of the Justice Department, but her overall application to the plot is so telegraphed that when we reach what was supposed to be her “Oh damn!” moment, it actually comes across as “Oh duh!” White Collar star Matt Bomer does bring a certain panache to the enigmatic (read: not fleshed-out) and ruthless assassin, John Boy, but he is so under-utilized that he sort of fades from memory when he isn’t onscreen, which actually makes clear the film’s most glaring fault: There never comes a time when Healy and March are so threatened as to make us worry. Of course the good guys always win, but it’s always fun to reach that cinematic moment that makes us wonder how they’ll get out of whatever situation alive. Sadly, this never comes, but that’s ultimately just fine, since The Nice Guys is really more of a time-killer than a foray into powerful film. But we knew that, right? Of course we did. We really only went to see the thing because it looked kind of goofy, and we thought it would be fun to see usually dramatic actors get silly. If this was the goal, then they nailed it. Otherwise, it would be wise to take this thing at face value, have a few yucks and then forget about it forever. THE NICE GUYS Directed by Shane Black With Gosling, Crowe and Bassinger Violet Crown, Regal 14 R, 116 min.

by Angourie Rice) who, when asked, tells her father that yes, he is a terrible person. What begins as Healy’s quest for answers quickly escalates into a multifaceted mystery involving missing persons, LA’s seedy underbelly and murdered pet fish. Though fun to observe the ragtag teaming of such colorful characters at first, the ultimate issue with The Nice Guys is that it just isn’t that funny. Gosling has his moments now and again, and there is absolute chemistry in the father-daughter relationship between his ne’er-do-well alcoholic persona and the too-smart-for-her-own-good Holly. He is definitely trying to be a good parent, but she still walks all over him, mostly because he’s too drunk to keep up. Crowe’s performance, on the other hand, is not bad, per se, but lacking. There is humor to be found in a bruiser who casually explains to his victims the medical specifics of their impending broken bones, but he never mines deep enough to strike comedic gold. It comes across as one-dimensional and, when played off of Gosling’s stab at goofiness, highlights this nagging feeling that they turned one good character into two just OK characters. And this is frustrating, because The Nice Guys comes pretty close to awesome more than a few times, like when a neighborhood teen tells our heroes that he’s got a big dick or when Gosling dreams of gargantuan talking Africanized bees.

CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR “...can be commended for actually delving into the moral ramifications ”
ONCE A MARINE Let’s just assume that Memorial Day means something more than a coveted three-day weekend in the first fair days on the edge of summer. Because it does. And let’s agree that spending $12 to see a Hollywood blockbuster wherein Mark Wahlberg sports a dirty face while he rolls around the hills outside Santa Fe doesn’t quite cut it either. Here’s your mission: Sit in this theater. Listen to these dudes talk about real war and real homecoming. Watch their eyes glisten and their lips tremble and their faces go back to hard again. What they have to say is something every American should witness. Once a Marine is far from polished. It opens with the eerie green glow of a night-vision camera, accompanied by the sounds of war: loud booms followed by celebratory yells, dogs barking, screamed commands and admonition, choppers circling, bullets cracking. This footage and that of the other overseas scenes was captured not by some embedded media hack, but by fellow infantryman Stephen Canty, deployed a second time to Afghanistan and involved in the 2010 offensive in Marjah. He captures the surreal pinks and reds of poppy fields along with raw images of the wounded in battle and jarring jostles of muddy furrows. Two weeks after the battle,
Charlie Company returned home. And after that, Canty visited several of his fellow soldiers for intimate interviews. These are rough-cut interviews with amateur lighting and marginal sound. Several men swill from beer cans while they talk. One cleans up a bedroom in his mother’s house that’s littered with empty heroin bags and cigarette butts. As is true for many of our fighting men and women, the reintegration did not go well. Their physical and emotional wounds have not healed. Those latter ones might not ever. Canty, who hails from Virginia and made a home in New Mexico two years ago, will offer a Q&A alongside featured Marines Xavier Zell, Geoffrey Heath and Darren Doss at the film’s free showing at 8 pm on Memorial Day. (Julie Ann Grimm) The Screen. NR, 57 min.
LOVE & FRIENDSHIP Although delightfully uneven, and heavy with both dialogue and horse-drawn carriages, period piece Love & Friendship is thoroughly enjoyable and well made. Directed by Whit Stillman (Metropolitan, Damsels in Distress) from the novella Lady Susan by Jane Austen (which was not published until 1871, long after her passing), we follow Lady Susan herself (Kate Beckinsale of Underworld fame), a recent widow in search of new husbands
for herself and for her daughter, Frederica, played by Morfydd Clark (Pride and Prejudice and Zombies). We meet Susan as she moves to new quarters with her former brother-in-law, Charles (Thor 2’s Justin Edwards) and his quivering wife Catherine (Emma Greenwell, also from Pride and Prejudice and Zombies). Possible candidates for matrimony include the dull but handsome Reginald (Twilight alum Xavier Samuel), another woman’s husband named Lord Manwaring (King Arthur’s Lochlann O’Mearáin) and the buffoonish Sir James Martin (Tom Bennett), a man who doesn’t understand that “Churchill” is one word, not a place called Church Hill. A steady flow of letters, delivered by long-faced but impeccably dressed servants, helps to keep the movie moving, with parts of the text of said letters appearing onscreen at times, like self-mocking subtitles. This works well and adds plenty to the gentle humor that runs throughout the entire film. Lady Susan also has a crisp tongue, which she is not afraid to use on most anyone, including the cads and bounders who try to catch her eye and Chloe Sevigny (Big Love) who plays her best friend, Alice. Suffice it to say that Lady Susan will probably get her way, no matter who or what the obstacle might be. Stillman’s casting is terrific, and the film gets extra boosts from costuming CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

MOVIES
yay! “I say, Lady Curly-Hair, havest thou seen my golden picture frame?” and cinematography. Some might find the film too talky, but if one listens intently, the dialogue flows freely and with a certain amount of charm. Love & Friendship offers little of either but hits the mark just for that reason. (Jeff Berg) CCA and Violet Crown, PG, 92 min.
VIVA Is there anyone who’s not talking about Cuba these days? Sure, we love the classic cars with shiny paint jobs, but there’s a decidedly less shiny part of Cuba to consider. It’s the part where people work hard or can’t find work at all and live in poverty, where endless pots of rice are cooked in sparsely furnished houses with peeling paint and missing windows. To look at the poster for Viva, you might think it’s a pleasant tryst through a glittering, bumping and bragging drag show or a colorful jaunt with Cuban rhythms. You’d be wrong. Yet colorful it is, and just as jarring as it is empowering. But first, the music. Names like Rosita Fornés and Gina León don’t mean much if you’ve been steeped in Brittany and Taylor too long. These women are rich reflections of the gutsy power that forms a great backbone for slow and dramatic lip-syncs by men who are excellent with the eyebrow pencil. They’re emblematic, true-to-life Cuban singers who had the spotlight in the middle of the last century. Fornés is a big, big star from film and music who was still belting it out at age 92 at her birthday party in Miami last year. YouTube that. When Viva, the stage name for Jesus (Héctor Medina), or Mama, the aging, fierce owner of the club (Luis Alberto García), take the stage to breathlessly re-enact the songs that tell stories of love and loyalty and stars and heartbreak, they take your heart right with them. Even if at first, Jesus is really bad at it. Viva is also a family drama that rips into all the painful territory that comes with relationships broken by alcohol, incarceration and frustration about sexuality in the machismo culture when Jesus comes face to face with a father he’s never known (Jorge Perugorría). The characters are deep and believable. Garcia, a well-known Cuban actor with a long CV, is especially striking in his role. The perspective on bleached-out and bursting Havana is rewarding. The exploration of how a father and son come to terms with each other doesn’t exploit either of them, and that’s no small feat when the material you’re working

with could lend itself to West Side Story stereotypes or, worse, To Wong Fu. Never fear, it’s all tied up in a bow by the end. (JAG) CCA, R, 100 min.
MONEY MONSTER Jodie Foster directs the mediocre new film, Money Monster, starring George Clooney, Julia Roberts and Jack O’Connell. When a bazilliondollar company called Ibis loses hundreds of millions overnight due to a reported algorithm glitch, Lee Gates (Clooney), who is the host of a Mad Money-esque show, has to eat his hat for recommending it to investors. Gates is like that MBA frat douche who never grew up and totally undervalues his director, Patty (Roberts), while constantly shitting all over the concept of actual journalism in favor of the almighty dollar. But then Kyle Budwell (O’Connell) appears during a live broadcast with a gun in his hand and a vest packed with plastic explosives to blame Gates for causing him to lose all his money on the bad investment and suddenly we’ve got ourselves a thriller. Elsewhere, the CEO of the company is missing, and the more everyone thinks about the lost money, the more they agree something doesn’t quite add up. Apparently this is supposed to count as “layered,” and though Money Monster never really has that moment that makes you wish it would just end already, it does manage to be not very exciting throughout. Is the villain actually the villain? Does Gates ever take a look at himself? Why is Julia Roberts still allowed to be in movies after the train wreck that was The Secret in Their Eyes? By the time the big surprise ending does arrive, it just doesn’t seem like a big deal. It’s definitely exciting that movies like this or The Big Short are beginning to look at the straight thievery of Wall Street, but whatever moral they may have been attempting to get across in this particular film is lost in the shuffle. If you like any of the actors, are curious about Foster’s directorial chops or wind up bored on a Sunday, this’ll do, but if you’re looking for a film that can be described as more than serviceable, keep searching. (ADV) Violet Crown, Regal, PG-13, 147 min.
CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR In War, the fallout from the events of Avengers: Age of Ultron has the world on edge and wreaks havoc on international diplomacy. People are scared of our heroes. Hell, why wouldn’t they be? As Secretary of State Thaddeus Ross
MOVIES
yay! Sometimes seeking acceptance from your family is a real drag. (William Hurt) points out to Cap and crew, they operate across sovereign borders with zero oversight, and the stuff that went down during their last outing in Sokovia left all kinds of people dead. World leaders want them to sign a treaty that will place restrictions on the team and have them report to a higher power. Tony Stark (the somehow always arrogant Robert Downey Jr.) is all for it, as he does battle with his own conscience over deaths they may have caused. Captain America (the usually pretty good but in this case kinda boring Chris Evans) refuses, however, stating something about how they need to do what they need to do. If that wasn’t bad enough, some jerk sets off a bomb at the UN meeting to ratify the treaty, thereby setting into motion a chain of events that, while complicated, is totally easy to follow. Surveillance footage would have us believe it was the dubious Winter Soldier (Captain America’s Hydra-hypnotized pal, Bucky, played
here capably by Sebastian Stan), but Captain America isn’t buying it, so he takes off on his own to save the day. Plus there’s this mysterious dude Zemo running around, killing people and being nuts, and that’s no good, either. War can be commended for actually delving into the moral ramifications of super-strong badasses who can blow up entire countries. Is a cadre of such proportions making the world a safer place, or are these heroes ignoring their collateral damage through the misguided belief that they are just and right? Marvel has done a wonderful job of slowly leading up to the joining of so many characters and they even got Spider-Man right, finally, as young Tom Holland’s all-too-brief appearance as Spidey perfectly encapsulates the web-slinger’s youthful hubris and quip-a-minute personality. No, this is not Citizen Kane, but if that’s the kind of movie you’re stacking comic films against, you are thinking about the genre all wrong. (ADV) Violet Crown, Regal, PG-13, 147 min.

MIND BODY SPIRIT ACUPUNCTURE Rob Brezsny
Week of May 25th
ARIES (March 21-April 19) To convey the best strategy for you to employ in the coming weeks, I have drawn inspiration from a set of instructions composed by aphorist Alex Stein: Scribble, scribble, erase. Scribble, erase, scribble. Scribble, scribble, scribble, scribble. Erase, erase, erase. Scribble, erase. Keep what’s left. In other words, Aries, you have a mandate to be innocently empirical, robustly experimental, and cheerfully improvisational— with the understanding that you must also balance your fun with ruthless editing.
and there will be other times when you will have good reasons for not embarking on an available adventure. But now is not one of those moments.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) “One must think like a hero to behave like a merely decent human being,” wrote Taurus memoirist May Sarton. That’s a dauntingly high standard to live up to, but for the foreseeable future it’s important that you try. In the coming weeks, you will need to maintain a heroic level of potency and excellence if you hope to keep your dreams on track and your integrity intact. Luckily, you will have an extraordinary potential to do just that. But you’ll have to work hard to fulfill the potential—as hard as a hero on a quest to find the real Holy Grail in the midst of all the fake Holy Grails. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) “Whatever you’re meant to do, do it now,” said novelist Doris Lessing. “The conditions are always impossible.” I hope you take her advice to heart, Gemini. In my astrological opinion, there is no good excuse for you to postpone your gratification or to procrastinate about moving to the next stage of a big dream. It’s senseless to tell yourself that you will finally get serious as soon as all the circumstances are perfect. Perfection does not and will never exist. The future is now. You’re as ready as you will ever be.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Russian poet Vera Pavlova tells about how once when she was using a pen and paper to jot down some fresh ideas, she got a paper cut on her palm. Annoying, right? On the contrary. She loved the fact that the new mark substantially extended her life line. The palmistry-lover in her celebrated. I’m seeing a comparable twist in your near future, Scorpio. A minor inconvenience or mild setback will be a sign that a symbolic revitalization or enhancement is nigh. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Norway is mountainous, but its neighbor Finland is quite flat. A group of Norwegians has launched a campaign to partially remedy the imbalance. They propose that to mark the hundredth anniversary of Finland’s independence, their country will offer a unique birthday gift: the top of Halti mountain. Right now the 4,479-foot peak is in Norway. But under the proposed plan, the border between countries will be shifted so that the peak will be transferred to Finland. I would love you to contemplate generous gestures like this in the coming weeks, Sagittarius. It’s a highly favorable time for you to bestow extra imaginative blessings. (P.S. The consequences will be invigorating to your own dreams.)
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) I believe that every one of us should set aside a few days every year when we celebrate our gaffes, our flaws, and our bloopers. During this crooked holiday, we are not embarrassed about the false moves we have made. We don’t decry our bad CANCER (June 21-July 22) French painter Henri Matisse judgment or criticize our delusional behavior.

You have a license to be as erotically attractive and thing on it / and ride into the sun upon my horse.” (Translated by Lena Jayyusi and Christopher Middleton.) wisely intimate as you dare. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) “Consider how hard it is to change yourself and you’ll understand what little chance you have in trying to change others,” wrote editor Jacob M. Braude. Normally I would endorse his poignant counsel, but for the foreseeable future I am predicting that the first half of it won’t fully apply to you. Why? Because you are entering a phase that I regard as unusually favorable for the project of transforming yourself. It may not be easy to do so, but it’ll be easier than it has been in a long time. And I bet you will find the challenge to reimagine, reinvent, and reshape yourself at least as much fun as it is hard work. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) “Never turn down an adventure without a really good reason,” says author Rebecca Solnit in her book The Far Away Nearby. That’s a thought she had as she contemplated the possibility of riding a raft down the Colorado River and through the Grand Canyon. Here’s how I suspect this meditation applies to you, Libra: There have been other times
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) In November 1916, at the height of World War I, the Swedish schooner Jönköping set sail for Finland, carrying 4,400 bottles of champagne intended for officers of the occupying Russian army. But the delivery was interrupted. A hostile German submarine sunk the boat, and the precious cargo drifted to the bottom of the Baltic Sea. The story didn’t end there, however. More than eight decades later, a Swedish salvage team retrieved a portion of the lost treasure, which had been well-preserved in the frosty abyss. Taste tests revealed that the bubbly alcholic beverage was “remarkably light-bodied, extraordinarily elegant and fantastically fresh, with discreet, slow-building toasty aromas of great finesse.” (Source: tinyurl.com/toastyaromas.) I foresee the potential of a similar resurrection in your future, Pisces. How deep are you willing to dive? Homework: Confess, brag, and expostulate about what inspires you to love.
