The Las Vegas Project: Contemporary Life on the Historic Santa Fe Trail in New Mexico
August 24–October 12, 2024
Opening Reception: Saturday, August 24 | TBD
The Visual Art Gallery, Santa Fe Community College, Santa Fe, NM Eight Crealdé master class students, under the guidance of seasoned Swiss-American documentary photographer Peter Schreyer, captured the stories of the places and people of this unique American region in black-and-white film and digital photographs, illustrating the cultural heritage and historical roots that go back hundreds of years. Unveiled at Crealde’s Showalter Gallery in 2022, the exhibition traveled to Kennedy Hall Gallery at New Mexico Highlands University in the spring of 2022. This summer, it will travel to Santa Fe Community College in Santa Fe, NM, the 2nd largest art market in the United States. Curated by Peter Schreyer.

Raheleh Filsoofi and Eric André: From Common Clay
September 13, 2024–January 25, 2025
Opening Reception: Friday, September 13 | 7–10pm
7–9pm | Alice & William Jenkins Gallery | Crealdé Main Campus 8–10pm | Hannibal Square Heritage Center with Live Music
Two artists—one from Iran and one from Ghana—explore the intersections of common themes and questions affecting us all. Each artist has common roots in traditional clay practice, but also works outside these traditions and materials to explore dynamics in our collective contemporary socio-cultural and political fabric. The artists are passionate ceramic educators who create from a common recognition that in order to heal, wounds must be acknowledged, and that art is central to this process.
Iranian-born artist Filsoofi is a collector of soil and sound, an itinerant artist, feminist curator, and community service advocate. Her work synthesizes socio-political statements as a point of departure and further challenges these fundamental arguments by incorporating ancient and contemporary media such as ceramics, poetry, ambient sound, and video. Her interdisciplinary practices act as the interplay between the literal and figurative contexts of land, ownership, immigration, and border. She is an Assistant Professor of Ceramics in the Department of Art at Vanderbilt University.
André is from the Ashanti Region, Ghana in West Africa. His practice explores immigrants’ experiences of displacement, vulnerability, and negotiation of place to challenge the ubiquitous and complex sociocultural, sociopolitical, and socioeconomic control systems. As an interdisciplinary artist, educated in Ghana and the US, he has had the opportunity to work in cross-cultural artistic environments and gain broad multimedia experience. He has held numerous solo exhibitions, and his works have been included in group exhibitions in Ghana and many venues across the United States. He is the Visiting Assistant Professor of Art at Hope College in Holland, Michigan.
