Join her in the auditorium of the New Mexico History Museum at 6 p.m.\, Friday\, Sept. 18\, 113 Lincoln Ave. \nWare will discuss how images in the exhibition at the Palace of the Governors as well as the book\, Through the Lens: Creating Santa Fe\, challenge mainstream culture and some of the generally accepted myths about Santa Fe. \nThe event is free and open to the public. \n Before coming to the Museum of Art\, Katherine Ware served as Curator of Photographs at the Philadelphia Museum of Art\, where she was co-curator and co-author of  Dreaming in Black and White:  Photography at the Julien Levy Gallery. While there\, she also served as curator and author of Elemental Landscapes:  Photographs by Harry Callahan; and presented shows including Photo Mandalas\, The Silver Garden; and The Faceless Figure.  Ware served as Assistant Curator in the Department of Photographs at the J. Paul Getty Museum during the 1990s and organized the traveling exhibition A Practical Dreamer: The Photographs of Man Ray and the exhibition Vision in Motion:  The Photographs of László Moholy-Nagy\, both with accompanying books. She has also worked with the photography collection at the Oakland Museum of California and began her career at the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service in Washington\, D.C. She is a frequent juror and reviewer of contemporary photography and has written essays on the art of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.     \nSince the 1850s many of the most recognized names in photography have focused their lenses in and on Santa Fe. Through their creative efforts they have documented a particular place and its visual history. They helped create that "place" and the mystique of Santa Fe. Photography has long been significant in the construction of notions of space and place\, landscape and identity\, and especially in Santa Fe\, however malleable visual meaning may be\, has helped define the geographical imagination. Curated by photographer and educator Krista Elrick and Palace of the Governor Curator of Photography\, Mary Anne Redding\, Through the Lens: Creating Santa Fe\, examines the history of Santa Fe through the visual record created by internationally respected photographers. \n \nThrough the Lens: Creating Santa Fe includes the exhibition (on view through Oct. 25)\, lecture series and book. Its sponsors are the Scanlan Family Foundation\, Verve Gallery of Photography\, New Mexico Council on Photography\, New Mexico Humanities Council\, Visual Arts Gallery at the Santa Fe Community College\, Photography Department/Marion Center for Photographic Arts at the College of Santa Fe\, Scheinbaum & Russek LTD.\, Santa Fe 400th Anniversary Partnership\, Santa Fe Art Foundation\, Andrew Smith Gallery\, Museum of New Mexico Foundation\, Palace Guard\, Phyllis and Edward Gladden Endowment Fund\, and the Women’s Board of the Museum of New Mexico. \n   \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/462-revisionist-images-of-santa-fe-a-through-the-lens-lecture/ LOCATION:New Mexico History Museum\, 113 Lincoln Avenue\, Santa Fe\, NM\, 87501\, United States CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/462_thumb.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Felicia Katz-Harris":MAILTO:felicia.katz-harris@state.nm.us GEO:35.6883465;-105.9381345 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=New Mexico History Museum 113 Lincoln Avenue Santa Fe NM 87501 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=113 Lincoln Avenue:geo:-105.9381345,35.6883465 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20090916T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20090916T140000 DTSTAMP:20260619T194846 CREATED:20090117T002022Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175317Z UID:10001630-1253102400-1253109600@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Let’s Take A Look with MIAC curators DESCRIPTION:During this time\, curators from The Museum of Indian Arts and Culture and The Laboratory of Anthropology are in the lobby of MIAC to look at your unidentified treasures.

Kessell will present the 2009 Santa Fe Fiesta lecture\, "A Long Time Coming: The 17th-Century Pueblo-Spanish War\," at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday\, Sept. 9\, at the New Mexico Museum of Art's St. Francis Auditorium\, 107 W. Palace Ave. The event is $5 to the general public\, free to Palace Guard members. \nThe Pueblo Indians had endured for three generations under Spanish rule before they threw off the colonial yoke. What took them so long? Why was war so long in coming?  Was the colonial regime really not so bad after all?  Did the benefits of coexistence repeatedly undermine the urge to revolt?  Or were the Pueblos so deeply divided by pre-Contact grudges\, and by the new promise of settling old scores through alliance with Spaniards\, that they simply could not rally themselves until 1680?  What did Esteban Clemente get wrong in 1670 that Po'Pay got right in 1680? \n"A Long Time Coming" will consider such questions\, but with no assurance of conclusive answers. \nEver since the early 1960s when he served with the U.S. National Park Service at Tumacacori National Monument — a Spanish Franciscan mission ruin in southern Arizona — John Kessell has devoted himself to research and teaching about Spain in America.  Recognizing over the past forty years how often we take sides in the encounter of Spaniards and Native Americans\, he has sought to be fair to both.  His latest book\, Pueblos\, Spaniards\, and the Kingdom of New Mexico (University of Oklahoma Press\, 2008) is an even-handed narrative of the tumultuous seventeenth-century Spanish colony. \nNo individual Spaniard figured more prominently in New Mexico's long history than Madrid-bred Diego de Vargas (1643-1704)\, refounding father and twice governor of the kingdom.  Although the Eastern establishment in the United States has long ignored Spanish contributions to the history of North America\, Kessell convinced the Guggenheim Foundation\, the National Historical Publications and Records Commission\, and the National Endowment for the Humanities that Vargas deserved a place at the tertulia of Washington\, Jefferson\, and Adams. \nAs a result of their financial support\, the long-term Vargas Project at the University of New Mexico\, 1980-2002\, published in English translation a six-volume scholarly edition of the Journals of Don Diego de Vargas\, 1691-1704\, thereby making available to students\, scholars\, teachers\, and the interested public the principal archives of Vargas's pivotal government.  Although Kessell initiated and remained involved in the project\, he credits his colleagues Rick Hendricks\, Meredith D. Dodge\, and Larry D. Miller for seeing it through. \nSince his retirement from the University of New Mexico in 2000\, Kessell has continued to lecture to a variety of groups on topics relating to Spain's presence in the American Southwest.  He has repeatedly offered the Spanish background in seminars for high school teachers under the Teach America Program.  Recently in Santa Fe and Albuquerque\, he provided the third complement to the Smithsonian Institution's traveling exhibit "Jamestown\, Québec\, and Santa Fe: Three North American Beginnings\," setting Santa Fe's unique history in its Spanish context. \nIn 1698\, the Spanish crown bestowed upon Vargas the title of Castile marqués de la Nava de Barcinas.  In May 2009\, Kessell had the pleasure of presenting in Madrid "Los héroes de bronce no bailan ni cecean: Conocer a Diego de Vargas (Madrid\, 1643-Nuevo México\, 1704)" to the twelfth marqués de la Nava de Barcinas and his family. \nDr. John L.  Kessell is Professor Emeritus in the Department of History at the University of New Mexico\, specializing in Southwestern history and Colonial Latin America. He has received numerous awards for his scholarship and has published widely. \nPueblos\, Spaniards and the Kingdom of New Mexico was considered the first narrative history devoted to the tumultuous 17th century in New Mexico. Setting aside stereotypes of a Native American Eden and the Black Legend of Spanish cruelty\, he painted an evenhanded picture of a tense but interwoven coexistence. Beginning with the first permanent Spanish settlement among the Pueblos of the Rio Grande in 1598\, he proposed a set of relations more complicated than previous accounts envisioned and then reinterpreted the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 and the Spanish reconquest in the 1690s. \nThis event is sponsored by the Palace Guard and the Santa Fe Fiesta Council. \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/426-a-long-time-coming-the-17th-century-pueblo-spanish-war-santa-fe-fiesta-lecture/ LOCATION:New Mexico History Museum\, 113 Lincoln Avenue\, Santa Fe\, NM\, 87501\, United States CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/426_thumb.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Marlon Magdalena":MAILTO:marlon.magdalena GEO:35.6883465;-105.9381345 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=New Mexico History Museum 113 Lincoln Avenue Santa Fe NM 87501 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=113 Lincoln Avenue:geo:-105.9381345,35.6883465 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20090830T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20090830T170000 DTSTAMP:20260619T194846 CREATED:20090309T235552Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175312Z UID:10001597-1251637200-1251651600@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:100th Anniversary Celebration DESCRIPTION:Performances\, hands on projects\, refreshments\, and more!  By Museum Admission\, New Mexico residents with I.D. free every Sunday.

It took decades for the work of Native designers to achieve full acceptance in their own communities and more so in the mainstream fashion world. Staying true to their cultural heritage\, pushing traditional boundaries\, and building upon the work of pioneers like Lloyd Kiva New\, today’s generation of Native designers creates extraordinary work challenging long-held stereotypes. \nNative Couture II: Innovation and Style opens at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture on Sunday\, August 30\, 2009. This exhibition explores the history of Native fashion from hand-made clothing and accessories of the 1880s that influenced the development of a Santa Fe Style\, to today’s contemporary Native couturiers. At its root\, Indian art is the quintessential original American art. This centuries-long influence of Native American art requires the buyer\, or wearer\, and the American public in general to ponder the origins of a truly unique American style. \nTraditional Native American garments and accessories translate easily to the mainstream couture world – both are personalized and highly embellished. After contact with Europeans\, the change in Native American clothing materials and styles had a profound effect on Euro-American clothing. One example of this is “Santa Fe Style\,” the subject of one section of this exhibition. Santa Fe style can be seen on individuals throughout the world today thanks to internationally known contemporary designers as Ralph Lauren. New Mexico Native couturiers Pilar Agoyo (Ohkay Owingeh/Cochiti/Santo Domingo)\, Patricia Michaels (Taos)\, Virgil Ortiz (Cochiti)\, and Penny Singer (Diné) take their fashion designs beyond Santa Fe Style and have created a unique style of Native Couture. \nThe fashion designers in Native Couture II: Innovation and Style come from a variety of cultural and educational backgrounds. Native American art often straddles two worlds: traditional and contemporary\, yet pushes the design palette into the contemporary sphere. Cutting edge Native American fashion\, accessories\, and jewelry strongly relate to the lived experience of today’s artists. Many contemporary Native designers are multi-vocal\, drawing inspiration from unquestionably “Native” elements – pottery symbols or beadwork patterns – from the eclectic to the cutting edge. All of the artists in this exhibition take advantage of this creative license still referencing their cultural roots. There are the classic purses by Dorothy Grant (Haida) and Virgil Ortiz\, the freer more eclectic concepts as seen in the work of Penny Singer’s blending of a contemporary handbag with a pictorial past\, Teri Greeves’ (Kiowa) beaded high tops or Pilar Agoyo’s metallic vinyl bag with familiar Pueblo motifs. Reaching for the cutting edge are accessories less likely to be worn by the cautious collector\, such as Wayne Nez Gaussoin’s license plate bracelet or Rose B. Simpson’s (Santa Clara) take on a “hoodie.” \nToday’s mainstream acceptance builds on a history of Native couturiers who have designed clothing for regional and national markets since the 1940s. The creation of Indian wearable art for the mainstream marketplace at this time was a reaffirmation of tribal identity in the face of increasing pressures for acculturation. This was one of many endeavors undertaken to communicate the continued existence and distinct values of Native America to the world at large. In 1946\, Lloyd Kiva New (Cherokee/Scottish/Irish) opened a boutique in Scottsdale\, AZ. He started designing handbags based on traditional Indian tribal pouches and design motifs and within ten years he had expanded to couture. A striking purple and yellow wool cape in the exhibit is a fine example of New’s Scottish heritage while his shirt and fabric samples illustrate his collaborations with two Hopi artists\, Charles Loloma and Manfred Susenkewa. \nThis movement toward greater awareness of cultural traditions became more pronounced in the 1960s. The Civil Rights era saw Native Americans advocating for their rights and cultural autonomy. Finally\, in 1962 a school co-founded by New was opened in Santa Fe for Native American students to learn traditional art and design – the Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA). This institution provided the cultural foundation leading some to experimentation. Many of today’s well-known designers\, such as Pilar Agoyo and Patricia Michaels\, trained under Kimberley “Wendy” Ponca (Osage) at IAIA and benefited from this art movement. \nPonca encouraged her students to experiment with different fabrics and designs\, some of which are part of the exhibition. Agoyo’s black and silver vinyl jacket and skirt reflect her Pueblo heritage while making a fabric not usually found in mainstream clothing both comfortable to wear and aesthetically pleasing. Michael’s two piece titled Pueblo Chanel\, is an example of her unique style with a hand painted silk feather skirt topped with a Chanel-cut transparent top of burnt velvet revealing a woven design that is open in the front and back. A center piece of Native Couture is the two piece pleated metallic silver and black skirt that is topped by the Modern Feather Boa by David\, Wayne and Tazbah Gaussoin. \nFashion designs do not necessarily stand alone and jewelry is used to accent and compliment the design. It goes without saying that Kenneth Begay (Diné) and Charles Loloma were the pioneers of modern Native American jewelry design. Begay’s work dating to the early 1940s could almost be mistaken for work by Spratling\, the famous Mexican silversmith. Loloma’s greatest legacy as a jeweler was his sense of color and his use of exotic stones. Both Begay and Loloma broke with the traditional pairing of silver and turquoise and conceptually opened the door to contemporary Southwest Indian jewelry design. \nThe next generation of Native American jewelry designers took the art to a higher level of refinement. Two artists who introduced new design concepts into contemporary Southwest Indian jewelry are Gail Bird (Laguna/Santo Domingo) and Yazzie Johnson (Diné). Some of the others who are part of this generation represented in the exhibition include Michael Kabotie (Hopi)\, Duane Maktima (Hopi/Laguna)\, and Jesse Monogya (Diné/Hopi). \nToday’s generation of contemporary jewelers including\, David and Wayne Gaussoin (Picuris/Diné/French)\, Cody Sanderson (Diné/Hopi/Pima/Nambe)\, Pat Pruitt (Laguna)\, Rebecca\, Begay (Diné)\, Dylan Poblano ( Zuni)\, Maria Samora (Taos)\, Tammy Garcia (Santa Clara)\, and Lee Yazzie (Diné)\, have fewer restrictions on their work and are free to explore new techniques and create innovative designs. \nNative Couture II features a range of Native American fashion design and jewelry that has been created over the past half century. Even the most avant-garde designs are created by hand using the timeless traditions and techniques of handcrafting wearable art that is authentically Native American. All this can be seen in the new exhibition at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture. \nNative Couture II: Innovation and Style opens to the public on Sunday\, August 20\, 2009 at 1.30 p.m. with a reception hosted by the Women’s Board of the Museum of New Mexico. \n Media Contacts \nShelby Tisdale\, Director \n505-476-1251 \nshelby.tisdale@state.nm.us \n  \nSteve Cantrell\, PR Manager \n505-476-1144 \n505-310-3539 – cell \nsteve.cantrell@state.nm.us \n  \n### \nLocated on Museum Hill™\, the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture shares the beautiful Milner Plaza with the Museum of International Folk Art.

It took decades for the work of Native designers to achieve full acceptance in their own communities and more so in the mainstream fashion world. Staying true to their cultural heritage\, pushing traditional boundaries\, and building upon the work of pioneers like Lloyd Kiva New\, today’s generation of Native designers creates extraordinary work challenging long-held stereotypes. \nNative Couture II: Innovation and Style opens at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture on Sunday\, August 30\, 2009. This exhibition explores the history of Native fashion from hand-made clothing and accessories of the 1880s that influenced the development of a Santa Fe Style\, to today’s contemporary Native couturiers. At its root\, Indian art is the quintessential original American art. This centuries-long influence of Native American art requires the buyer\, or wearer\, and the American public in general to ponder the origins of a truly unique American style. \nTraditional Native American garments and accessories translate easily to the mainstream couture world – both are personalized and highly embellished. After contact with Europeans\, the change in Native American clothing materials and styles had a profound effect on Euro-American clothing. One example of this is “Santa Fe Style\,” the subject of one section of this exhibition. Santa Fe style can be seen on individuals throughout the world today thanks to internationally known contemporary designers as Ralph Lauren. New Mexico Native couturiers Pilar Agoyo (Ohkay Owingeh/Cochiti/Santo Domingo)\, Patricia Michaels (Taos)\, Virgil Ortiz (Cochiti)\, and Penny Singer (Diné) take their fashion designs beyond Santa Fe Style and have created a unique style of Native Couture. \nThe fashion designers in Native Couture II: Innovation and Style come from a variety of cultural and educational backgrounds. Native American art often straddles two worlds: traditional and contemporary\, yet pushes the design palette into the contemporary sphere. Cutting edge Native American fashion\, accessories\, and jewelry strongly relate to the lived experience of today’s artists. Many contemporary Native designers are multi-vocal\, drawing inspiration from unquestionably “Native” elements – pottery symbols or beadwork patterns – from the eclectic to the cutting edge. All of the artists in this exhibition take advantage of this creative license still referencing their cultural roots. There are the classic purses by Dorothy Grant (Haida) and Virgil Ortiz\, the freer more eclectic concepts as seen in the work of Penny Singer’s blending of a contemporary handbag with a pictorial past\, Teri Greeves’ (Kiowa) beaded high tops or Pilar Agoyo’s metallic vinyl bag with familiar Pueblo motifs. Reaching for the cutting edge are accessories less likely to be worn by the cautious collector\, such as Wayne Nez Gaussoin’s license plate bracelet or Rose B. Simpson’s (Santa Clara) take on a “hoodie.” \nToday’s mainstream acceptance builds on a history of Native couturiers who have designed clothing for regional and national markets since the 1940s. The creation of Indian wearable art for the mainstream marketplace at this time was a reaffirmation of tribal identity in the face of increasing pressures for acculturation. This was one of many endeavors undertaken to communicate the continued existence and distinct values of Native America to the world at large. In 1946\, Lloyd Kiva New (Cherokee/Scottish/Irish) opened a boutique in Scottsdale\, AZ. He started designing handbags based on traditional Indian tribal pouches and design motifs and within ten years he had expanded to couture. A striking purple and yellow wool cape in the exhibit is a fine example of New’s Scottish heritage while his shirt and fabric samples illustrate his collaborations with two Hopi artists\, Charles Loloma and Manfred Susenkewa. \nThis movement toward greater awareness of cultural traditions became more pronounced in the 1960s. The Civil Rights era saw Native Americans advocating for their rights and cultural autonomy. Finally\, in 1962 a school co-founded by New was opened in Santa Fe for Native American students to learn traditional art and design – the Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA). This institution provided the cultural foundation leading some to experimentation. Many of today’s well-known designers\, such as Pilar Agoyo and Patricia Michaels\, trained under Kimberley “Wendy” Ponca (Osage) at IAIA and benefited from this art movement. \nPonca encouraged her students to experiment with different fabrics and designs\, some of which are part of the exhibition. Agoyo’s black and silver vinyl jacket and skirt reflect her Pueblo heritage while making a fabric not usually found in mainstream clothing both comfortable to wear and aesthetically pleasing. Michael’s two piece titled Pueblo Chanel\, is an example of her unique style with a hand painted silk feather skirt topped with a Chanel-cut transparent top of burnt velvet revealing a woven design that is open in the front and back. A center piece of Native Couture is the two piece pleated metallic silver and black skirt that is topped by the Modern Feather Boa by David\, Wayne and Tazbah Gaussoin. \nFashion designs do not necessarily stand alone and jewelry is used to accent and compliment the design. It goes without saying that Kenneth Begay (Diné) and Charles Loloma were the pioneers of modern Native American jewelry design. Begay’s work dating to the early 1940s could almost be mistaken for work by Spratling\, the famous Mexican silversmith. Loloma’s greatest legacy as a jeweler was his sense of color and his use of exotic stones. Both Begay and Loloma broke with the traditional pairing of silver and turquoise and conceptually opened the door to contemporary Southwest Indian jewelry design. \nThe next generation of Native American jewelry designers took the art to a higher level of refinement. Two artists who introduced new design concepts into contemporary Southwest Indian jewelry are Gail Bird (Laguna/Santo Domingo) and Yazzie Johnson (Diné). Some of the others who are part of this generation represented in the exhibition include Michael Kabotie (Hopi)\, Duane Maktima (Hopi/Laguna)\, and Jesse Monogya (Diné/Hopi). \nToday’s generation of contemporary jewelers including\, David and Wayne Gaussoin (Picuris/Diné/French)\, Cody Sanderson (Diné/Hopi/Pima/Nambe)\, Pat Pruitt (Laguna)\, Rebecca\, Begay (Diné)\, Dylan Poblano ( Zuni)\, Maria Samora (Taos)\, Tammy Garcia (Santa Clara)\, and Lee Yazzie (Diné)\, have fewer restrictions on their work and are free to explore new techniques and create innovative designs. \nNative Couture II features a range of Native American fashion design and jewelry that has been created over the past half century. Even the most avant-garde designs are created by hand using the timeless traditions and techniques of handcrafting wearable art that is authentically Native American. All this can be seen in the new exhibition at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture. \nNative Couture II: Innovation and Style opens to the public on Sunday\, August 20\, 2009 at 1.30 p.m. with a reception hosted by the Women’s Board of the Museum of New Mexico.

Santa Fe Living Treasures — Our Elders\, Our Hearts\, Vol. II\, 1994-2008 contains portraits and profiles of Treasures by author Richard McCord and photographer Steve Northup. \nThe first book\, Living Treasures — Celebration of the Human Spirit\, published  in 1997\, portrayed the Treasures honored from 1984-94. A large number of Treasures will be present at this free event\, which is open to the public. \nThe host is the Living Treasures Committee and the Museum of New Mexico. \nThis year marks the 25th anniversary for Living Treasures\, a nonprofit founded in 1984 by peace activist\, teacher\, author and minister Mary Lou Cook\, who became a Treasure herself in 1988. Inspired by Mahatma Gandhi's dictum\, "You must be the change you wish to see in the world\," the group sought to express prominent appreciation for remarkable contributions made by elders aged 70 or more. Modeled on traditions from Japan\, the Santa Fe Living Treasures program was the first in the nation; other cities and towns have since followed suit. \nThe program has been featured on television\, radio and in publications and has served as an inspiration for what individuals can accomplish with courage\, passion\, sensitivity optimism\, dedication\, wisdom and love. \nTwice a year\, Santa Fe Living Treasures honors three treasures whose oral histories and photographs are recorded\, archived and made available to the public at the Fray Angelico Chavez History Library. \nSays noted author John Nichols: “This book is as beautiful as the people\, and the state\, that it celebrates.  The photographs and the writing bear witness to a great love that all New Mexicans share: for our culture\, for our history\, and the landscape that cradles us in its arms.  These Living Treasures have nurtured that love and are passing it on to the next generation.  Profound thanks are due all of them.”  \n  \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/487-santa-fe-living-treasures-book-signing-event/ LOCATION:New Mexico History Museum\, 113 Lincoln Avenue\, Santa Fe\, NM\, 87501\, United States CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/487_thumb.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Marlon Magdalena":MAILTO:marlon.magdalena GEO:35.6883465;-105.9381345 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=New Mexico History Museum 113 Lincoln Avenue Santa Fe NM 87501 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=113 Lincoln Avenue:geo:-105.9381345,35.6883465 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20090816 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20090817 DTSTAMP:20260619T194846 CREATED:20190816T223011Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T180137Z UID:10004044-1250380800-1250467199@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Test Event DESCRIPTION:Because posting to the Media Center also impacts your division’s website\, the term “Media Center” is used here to mean that website\, as well. \n  \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\nWHAT Exhibitions \n\n \n\nWHO \n\n\n \n\n \n\n1 \n\n \n\nAll exhibit descriptions will be finalized and sent to TERRY by no later than four months prior to exhibition opening.

This free\, public event will be held in the auditorium of the New Mexico History Museum. \nTaylor is an Associate Professor at New Mexico State University\, where he teaches photography. His photographs\, installations and artist’s books have been exhibited nationally. Taylor’s work can be found in the collections of the Museum of Contemporary Photography\, the Washington State Arts Commission\, the El Paso Museum of Art and Fidelity Investments. His ongoing documentation of the U.S./Mexico border is supported by a fellowship from the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation. \nSince the 1850s many of the most recognized names in photography have focused their lenses in and on Santa Fe. Through their creative efforts they have documented a particular place and its visual history. They helped create that "place" and the mystique of Santa Fe. Photography has long been significant in the construction of notions of space and place\, landscape and identity\, and especially in Santa Fe\, however malleable visual meaning may be\, has helped define the geographical imagination. Curated by photographer and educator Krista Elrick and Palace of the Governor Curator of Photography\, Mary Anne Redding\, Through the Lens: Creating Santa Fe\, examines the history of Santa Fe through the visual record created by internationally respected photographers.  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/461-western-exposure-photographs-and-the-frontier-a-through-the-lens-lecture/ LOCATION:New Mexico History Museum\, 113 Lincoln Avenue\, Santa Fe\, NM\, 87501\, United States CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/461_thumb.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Felicia Katz-Harris":MAILTO:felicia.katz-harris@state.nm.us GEO:35.6883465;-105.9381345 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=New Mexico History Museum 113 Lincoln Avenue Santa Fe NM 87501 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=113 Lincoln Avenue:geo:-105.9381345,35.6883465 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20090814T083000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20090814T100000 DTSTAMP:20260619T194846 CREATED:20090417T042953Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175325Z UID:10001666-1250238600-1250244000@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Breakfast with the Curators Native American Picture Books of Change DESCRIPTION:Breakfast with the Curators\, a series of lectures and artists presentations\, will be held over three weeks in August.

A confident\, ebullient woman in her early 60s\, the Colorado native and Santa Fe resident packed in her equipment on horseback to photograph the source of the Rio Grande\, did studio portraits for society matrons\, directed pilots to "fly low" over Shiprock to capture the light and shadows from every possible angle. Laura Gilpin experimented with every subject and photographic technique for over fifty-five years before receiving widespread national recognition for it. \nDeborah Blanche brings Miss Gilpin to life with a performance that includes a slide show with images from her first Lumiere color prints and those in her best-known book\, The Enduring Navajo. She answers questions and tells some of the behind-the-camera stories about the photographic retrospective that parallels Gilpin's life. \n Blanche has worked in theatre\, storytelling\, film\, radio and TV since her teens. After completing a Master of Fine Arts Degree at the University of Oklahoma\, she studied in Great Britain where a passion for "original" theatre production was ignited. Since that time\, she has become best known for the one-woman plays\, Chautauqua characters and storytelling programs that she researches\, writes and performs locally\, nationally and internationally. She also offers workshops\, coaching sessions\, and lecture-demonstrations related to her performances and theatrical skills. \nBlanche's other chautauqua characters include Jeannette Rankin\, the first woman elected to Congress; Elizabeth Bacon Custer (yes\, wife of that Custer) and New Mexico author Erna Fergusson. \nThrough the Lens: Creating Santa Fe charts the development of the City Different through the work of many photographers over the decades.  \n Since the 1850s\, many of the most-recognized names in photography have focused their lenses in and on Santa Fe. Through their creative efforts\, they have documented the city and its visual history\, helping to create the mystique of Santa Fe. Photography has long been significant in the construction of notions of space and place\, landscape and identity and\, especially in Santa Fe\, has helped define the geographical imagination. Both documentary and fine art photographers were drawn to the region’s land\, its peoples\, the regional architecture\, and the quality of light found nowhere else in the world. \nThe project\, curated by photographer and educator Krista Elrick and Palace of the Governors Curator of Photography Mary Anne Redding\, showcases outstanding photographs that reveal the aesthetic excellence of the artists working in Santa Fe. While the images document the city\, they have also been used\, historically\, as part of the marketing of the Santa Fe image and as a draw to other artists.  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/474-photographer-laura-gilpin-comes-to-life-a-through-the-lens-chautauqua-event/ LOCATION:New Mexico History Museum\, 113 Lincoln Avenue\, Santa Fe\, NM\, 87501\, United States CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/474_thumb.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Felicia Katz-Harris":MAILTO:felicia.katz-harris@state.nm.us GEO:35.6883465;-105.9381345 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=New Mexico History Museum 113 Lincoln Avenue Santa Fe NM 87501 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=113 Lincoln Avenue:geo:-105.9381345,35.6883465 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20090805T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20090805T130000 DTSTAMP:20260619T194846 CREATED:20090723T040311Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175331Z UID:10001696-1249473600-1249477200@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:NM Volunteers and Militia During the Civil War Brainpower & Brownbags lecture series DESCRIPTION:Jerry D.

Boggs DESCRIPTION:Tough economic times hardly faze the folks ready to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Mountain Man Rendezvous in the Palace of the Governors Courtyard. From Aug. 5-9 (see daily schedule below)\, craftspeople\, re-enactors\, authors and musicians will share a wealth of know-how on the “simple life” of another era – the early 1800s\, to be precise. \nAs a special addition to this year’s lineup\, award-winning author Johnny D. Boggs will speak at 2 pm Sunday\, Aug. 9\, on “Mountain Men in Literature\, Film and Pop Culture.” Honored by three Spur Awards and a Western Heritage Wrangler Award\, Boggs\, a Santa Fe resident\, is an engaging interpreter of the American West. His lecture\, in the New Mexico History Museum auditorium\, will examine the popularity of Mountain Men from early dime novels in the 1800s to serious literary studies of the 20th century\, from movies like The Big Trail and Jeremiah Johnson to the rise of buck-skinning festivals and reenactments. (For more on Boggs\, go to http://www.johnnydboggs.com/.) \nAmong the earliest Anglos to reach America’s West\, Mountain Men were hunters and fur trappers whose rugged lives left Rocky Mountain legends from roughly 1820-1840. Their survival skills\, including trading with Native Americans (and sometimes evading them)\, built a foundation of knowledge for the settlers who followed on the Santa Fe Trail. Among the 1\,000 who roamed the West during the fur trade’s heyday were folks like Kit Carson and Jedediah Smith. \nThe tradition of the rendezvous started in 1825. A gathering to exchange pelts for supplies and reorganize trapping units evolved into a month-long carnival in the wilderness. According to one observer: "Mountain companies … make as crazy a set of men I ever saw." There were horse races\, running races\, card games\, checkers\, target shooting\, singing and gambling. Whiskey drinking\, not surprisingly\, accompanied it all. \nWhile the Museum’s rendezvous won’t include alcohol\, this family-friendly event – free but for the opening morning’s preview – includes period music\, the display and sale of authentic and reproduced items\, and games and hands-on activities for children. From 10 am to noon on Friday\, Aug. 7\, visit the touch table and “discovery box” for a true feel of the everyday items used by these pioneers – as well as a few slick\, furry and flat-out hair-raising ones. \nMichael Combs and his son\, Dependable Hickory Strongheart\, will perform traditional Mountain Man music from 5:30-7 pm on Friday\, Aug. 7. Rooted in the songs and dances of their birthlands – Scotland\, Quebec\, England and more – Mountain Men accompanied their tunes with banjos\, fiddles\, concertinas\, clapping\, stomps and improvised dance steps. \nOn Saturday\, Aug. 8\, from 10 am to noon\, Scot Bol from the Wildlife Center\, New Mexico’s only wildlife hospital and education center\, will show off some of the birds that sail our Western skies. \nEnter for free through the Blue Gate\, just south of the History Museum’s entrance at 113 Lincoln Avenue. Or add a visit to the History Museum and the Palace of the Governors\, where children 16 and under are always free. Admission for N.M. adults is $6\, $9 for others. \nMountain Man Rendezvous schedule: \nAug. 5 \n8-10 am: Preview\, Palace Courtyard\, $10 \n10am-4:30pm: Courtyard events; free with entry through the Blue Gate on Lincoln Avenue \nAug. 6 \n9am-4:30pm: Courtyard events; free with entry through the Blue Gate \nAug. 7 \n9am-4:30pm: Courtyard events; free with entry through the Blue Gate \n10am-noon: Touch table and “discovery box” offer a chance to learn about trade items\, pelts and more; in the Courtyard \n5:30-7pm: Michael Combs and Dependable Hickory Strongheart perform Mountain Man music; in the Courtyard \nAug. 8 \n9am-4:30pm: Courtyard events; free with entry through the Blue Gate \n10am-noon: New Mexico Wildlife Center displays the animals of the American West; in the Courtyard \n2pm: Beading and flintknapping demonstration by Charlie Acuña; in the Courtyard (For more on Acuña\, go to http://stonedge.com/) \nAug. 9 \n9am-3pm: Courtyard events; free with entry through the Blue Gate \n2pm: ** SPECIAL EVENT ** Western novelist Johnny D.

For the past 13 years\, Dr. Kunin has done ethnographic research among the crypto-Jews of New Mexico. He has published a number of books on aspects of biblical and Jewish culture from an anthropological and structuralist perspective and has written about the development of theories of religion in such works as Themes and Issues in Judaism and Religion: The Modern Theories. \nCritiquing scholars who challenge the authenticity of these individuals\, Seth D. Kunin builds a solid link between the crypto-Jews of New Mexico and their Spanish ancestors\, offering the strongest evidence yet of their ethnic and religious origins. \n \nKunin adopts a unique approach to the lives of modern crypto-Jews\, concentrating primarily on their understanding of Jewish tradition and the meaning they ascribe to ritual. He illuminates the complexity of this community\, in which individuals and groups perform the same practice in diverse ways. Kunin supplements his ethnographic research with broader theories concerning the nature of identity and memory\, which is especially applicable to crypto-Jews\, whose culture resides mainly in memory. Kunin's work has wider implications\, not only for other forms of crypto-Judaism (such as those found in the former Soviet Union) but also for the study of Judaism's fluid nature\, which helps adherents adapt to new circumstance and knowledge. Finally\, Kunin compares crypto-Judaism's intricate ancestry with that of other ethnic communities living in the United States. \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/424-juggling-identities-identity-and-authenticity-among-the-crypto-jews-lecture-and-booksigning/ LOCATION:New Mexico History Museum\, 113 Lincoln Avenue\, Santa Fe\, NM\, 87501\, United States CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/424_thumb.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Marlon Magdalena":MAILTO:marlon.magdalena GEO:35.6883465;-105.9381345 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=New Mexico History Museum 113 Lincoln Avenue Santa Fe NM 87501 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=113 Lincoln Avenue:geo:-105.9381345,35.6883465 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
