Then the lights are dimmed\, the crowd is hushed\, and a spectacular slideshow of the work of anywhere from 15 to 50 photographers begins. A typical show consists of documentary\, still-life\, architecture\, portrait and fine-art photography\, all presented in a congenial\, non-competitive atmosphere\, accompanied by music\, audio recordings\, interviews and/or live performances. \nAttendees are encouraged to bring light fare or a dessert dish to share and enjoy. In the United States\, Slideluck Potshow has been presented to rave reviews in New York and Los Angeles—and now it is coming to Santa Fe\, thanks to Center. “We wanted to create an environment for the talented and diverse group of photographers working in New Mexico to showcase their work—and have fun while doing it\,” said Laura Wzorek Pressley\, Executive Director of Center. Co-sponsored by the New Mexico History Museum\, home of the Palace of the Governors Photo Archive.

Chávez\, speaking on Chasing History: Quixotic Quests for Arts\, Artifacts and Heritage. \nTickets cost $10. Until Nov. 20\, subscribers to all five lectures in the series can get a reduced price of $40. \nChávez\, a contributor to the book Telling New Mexico: A New History\, and a former director of the Palace and of the National Hispanic Cultural Center\, will draw on stories from his career and his forthcoming book for the lecture. \n “Life working in the humanities and museums can sometimes feel like chasing windmills\,” Chávez said. “History\, the arts and culture are not political priorities – yet they can be a societal priority\, because the benefits exceed our collective imagination. I plan to share some tales that\, now\, have become history.” \nChávez oversaw the Palace for 21 years\, a period when the eventual New Mexico History Museum was conceived and when the state acquired the famed Segesser Hides. The hide paintings\, which illustrate the 1720 Segesser expedition\, were then in Swiss hands. Each of those “quests” involved a mixture of political intrigue\, international diplomacy\, business acumen and dogged work by volunteers and staff. \n“My own career and those with whom I have had the pleasure of working are perfect cases in that sense of chasing windmills\,” Chávez said. “This lecture will be fun\, true and thought-provoking." \nPrior to Chávez’s lecture\, a 1 p.m. reception will honor Marianne O’Shaughnessy and her late husband\, Michael O’Shaughnessy\, who provided funding for the series. Also to be honored are Marta Weigle and Louise Stiver\, editors of Telling New Mexico: A New History. To attend the reception\, come to the John Gaw Meem Community Room via the museum’s Washington Avenue entrance. \nThe five-part Telling New Mexico Inaugural Lecture Series accompanies the book as well as the History Museum’s core exhibition\, Telling New Mexico: Stories from Then and Now. The series will be held in the New Mexico History Museum Auditorium. Each lecture costs $10. For $100\, participants will be named “event sponsors” and receive a paperback version of Telling New Mexico: A New History\, autographed by the volume editors. \n  To purchase tickets: \nGo to http://www.museumfoundation.org/tellingnm until 4 pm the Friday before each lecture \nVisit the Museum Shops in the Palace and the New Mexico History Museum.   \nOther lectures in the series are at 2 p.m. on the following Sundays: \nJan. 31: Thomas Lark\, curator of Expo New Mexico’s African-American Performing Arts Center\, on the history of African-Americans in New Mexico; and the Rev.

This event\, free with museum admission\, will be at 2 pm\, Saturday\, Nov. 21\, at the New Mexico History Museum Auditorium\, 113 Lincoln Ave. \nPost is a co-curator of the exhibition at the Palace of the Governors\, which explores the lives of the colonists and Native peoples who lived in and around Santa Fe 400 years ago.  \nThe full lecture-series schedule: \n \nThursday\, Nov. 12\, 6 pm: José Esquibel\, historian and genealogist\, “The Jewish-Converso Lineage of Don Juan de Oñate” \nSaturday\, Nov. 21\, 2 pm: Steve Post\, assistant director\, New Mexico Office of Archaeological Studies\,  “The Founding of Santa Fe from the Ground Down.” Free with museum admission \nThursday\, Jan. 14\, 6 pm: Cordelia Snow\, archaeologist\, New Mexico Historic Preservation Division\, “Luxury Goods Transported over the Camino Real.” Free. \nSaturday\, Feb. 20\, 2 pm: Frances Levine\, director of the New Mexico History Museum/Palace of the Governors\,”In Her Own Voice: Doña Teresa Aguilera y Roche and Intrigue in the Palace of the Governors.” Free with museum admission \nSaturday\, March 13\, 2 pm: Thomas E.

More than 90\,000 artifacts were unearthed from the 17th-century\, revealing tales of life as it once was. \n“Surprising to some and not to others\, the New Mexico History Museum was complex and rich in the information it yielded on 300 years of people living and working behind the Palace of the Governors\,” Post said. “Combined with Dedie Snow’s 1974-1975 excavations within the Palace\, our work gives a unique inside-outside look at a central place in New Mexico history." \nOther featured archaeological sites add to the story. The Baca-Garvisu site was the home of a prominent Santa Fe family in the 1700s\, located where the Santa Fe Community Convention Center now stands. The Sanchez Site\, an early Spanish estancia\, or rural settlement\, was partly excavated in the 1980s and is now managed by El Rancho de los Golondrinas. Also prominent in the exhibition is San Gabriel del Yungue at the Pueblo of Ohkay Owingeh\, where the first Spanish colonists briefly set their roots. \nSpain's far northern colony of Santa Fe was reached by a six-month journey up El Camino Real\, a barely mapped and uncertain route that held only hazy promises of water and shelter. Holding together a caravan of 700 people – soldiers\, friars\, men and a few women and children – and the tools and livestock it would take to build a new colony tested the explorers’ abilities and\, sometimes\, their humanity. \nSome of the artifacts show that\, despite the frontier conditions\, fine goods had managed to travel up El Camino Real to homes and missions in the colony. A sampling of the pottery that was found on the digs includes Spanish majolica\, blue-and-white Mexican pottery modeled on examples from the Ming Dynasty in China\, colorful Mexican pottery and Pueblo pottery. Also found were tobacco pipes\, gold earrings\, gunflints and arrowheads. \nA few shards of the pottery found by archaeologists speak to a monumental expedition.

The lecture is part of the week-long festival\, "Celebrate! The Jewish Experience in Spanish-Speaking Countries\," sponsored by the New Mexico Anti-Defamation League. The festival\, which will be held in Albuquerque\, Santa Fe\, and Taos\, is an unprecedented week of film\, music\, art\, theater\, food\, exhibits and lectures highlighting the extraordinary historic and contemporary journey of the Jewish people after their expulsion from Spain in 1492. \nStavans\, a Mexican-American essayist\, lexicographer\, cultural commentator\, translator\, short-story author\, TV personality and teacher\, is known for his insights into American\, Hispanic\, and Jewish cultures. He has been called "the czar of Latino culture in the United States" by the New York Times and "Latin America's liveliest and boldest critic and most innovative cultural enthusiast" by the Washington Post. whose Jewish family emigrated from Poland to Mexico\, is the Lewis-Sebring Professor of Latin American and Latino Culture at Amherst College and the recipient of numerous honors\, including a Guggenheim Fellowship\, the Latino Literature Prize\, the Antonia Pantoja Award\, Chile's Presidential Medal\, and the Rubén Darío Distinction. He earned an Emmy nomination as host of the PBS show La Plaza: Conversations with Ilan Stavans. \nAccording to Harvard's renowned professor\, Henry Louis Gates Jr.: "Ilan Stavans is an inventive interpreter of the contemporary cultures of the Americas…. Cantankerous and clever\, sprightly and serious\, Stavans is a voracious thinker. In his writing\, life serves to illuminate literature—and vice versa: he is unafraid to court controversy\, unsettle opinions\, make enemies. In short\, Stavans is an old-fashioned intellectual\, a brilliant interpreter of his triple heritage—Jewish\, Mexican\, and American." \nStavans will also speak at 4 pm on Sunday\, Nov. 15\, at the National Hispanic Cultural Center; a tapas and wine reception will follow. \nThis lecture is sponsored by the New Mexico Anti-Defamation League\, the New Mexico History Museum and the National Hispanic Cultural Center. \nIn addition to the lecture\, Stavans will be signing copies of his books\, including On Borrowed Words (Penguin)\, The Oxford Book of Jewish Stories (Oxford)\, Tropical Synagogues (Holmes and Meier)\, The Cross the and the Scroll (Routledge)\, The Essential Ilan Stavans (Routledge)\, The Disappearance (TriQuarterly)\, and Becoming Americans (Library of America). \n Major funding for Celebrate! has been provided by the Isaac Liberman Foundation.  Partners who have provided expertise and additional funding include the Mexican Consulate\, the National Hispanic Cultural Center\, the Instituto Cervantes\, Casa Sefarad-Israel\, CLARO at the University of New Mexico\, The New Mexico History Museum\, El Museo Cultural de Santa Fe\,  \, the Ronald Gardenswartz Jewish Community Center of Albuquerque\, The Israeli Consulate\, Working Classroom\, Congregation Nahalat Shalom\,  the Sokolove/Singer/Buchwald families\, and the Santa Fe Society for Jewish Arts and Culture. \n   \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/509-the-jewish-experience-in-latin-america-ilan-stavans-shakes-things-up/ 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/2023/05/509_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:20091112T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20091112T193000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175333Z CREATED:20091217T012933Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175333Z UID:10001710-1258048800-1258054200@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:The Jewish-Converso Lineage of Don Juan de Onate A Santa Fe 400th Anniversary lecture DESCRIPTION:Join historian and genealogist José Esquibel for a free public lecture in honor of Santa Fe's 400th anniversary at 6 pm\, Thursday\, Nov. 12\, in the New Mexico History Museum Auditorium\, 113 Lincoln Ave. Esquibel will speak on  “The Jewish-Converso Lineage of Don Juan de Oñate.” \nThe lecture is part of a series\, with subsequent lectures on Jan. 14\, 2010\, and May 13\, 2010.

More than 90\,000 artifacts were unearthed from the 17th-century\, revealing tales of life as it once was. \n \n  \n“Surprising to some and not to others\, the New Mexico History Museum was complex and rich in the information it yielded on 300 years of people living and working behind the Palace of the Governors\,” Post said. “Combined with Dedie Snow’s 1974-1975 excavations within the Palace\, our work gives a unique inside-outside look at a central place in New Mexico history." \nOther featured archaeological sites add to the story. The Baca-Garvisu site was the home of a prominent Santa Fe family in the 1700s\, located where the Santa Fe Community Convention Center now stands. The Sanchez Site\, an early Spanish estancia\, or rural settlement\, was partly excavated in the 1980s and is now managed by El Rancho de los Golondrinas. Also prominent in the exhibition is San Gabriel del Yungue at the Pueblo of Ohkay Owingeh\, where the first Spanish colonists briefly set their roots. \nSpain's far northern colony of Santa Fe was reached by a six-month journey up El Camino Real\, a barely mapped and uncertain route that held only hazy promises of water and shelter. Holding together a caravan of 700 people – soldiers\, friars\, men and a few women and children – and the tools and livestock it would take to build a new colony tested the explorers’ abilities and\, sometimes\, their humanity. \nSome of the artifacts show that\, despite the frontier conditions\, fine goods had managed to travel up El Camino Real to homes and missions in the colony. A sampling of the pottery that was found on the digs includes Spanish majolica\, blue-and-white Mexican pottery modeled on examples from the Ming Dynasty in China\, colorful Mexican pottery and Pueblo pottery. Also found were tobacco pipes\, gold earrings\, gunflints and arrowheads. \nA few shards of the pottery found by archaeologists speak to a monumental expedition. Centuries past\, they were parts of delicate Ming vases loaded onto a Spanish galleon at a Chinese port for an ocean journey then a bumpy trip up El Camino Real to the young colony. \n“Considering the Chinese pottery traveled across the ocean and then 1\,600 miles up the Camino Real\, it’s not surprising – and it’s even amazing – that we found only one or two pieces of these vessels\,” Post said. \nFrom these roots grew La Villa Real de Santa Fe\, the Royal City of Santa Fe\, now 400 years old.

Hewett\, a leading archaeologist and anthropologist and the first director of the Museum of New Mexico. The event features seven archaeologists speaking on different periods of Santa Fe's history\, from ancient to modern times. \nThrough recent archaeological excavations in the downtown Santa Fe area\, these researchers have given us new information about a recently discovered past — a past not yet covered in history books. The archaeologists will begin with a look at Santa Fe’s first seasonal residents\, nomadic hunters and gatherers who came to pick wild plants and piñon nuts. Then they will talk about the later Pueblo people who built several large villages and survived by farming. The severity and luxury of Spanish Colonial life will also be discussed\, as well as the economic and social changes brought by the Santa Fe Trail. Finally\, the archaeologists will examine the agricultural and later industrial use of the recently developed Santa Fe Railyard area. \n \nTickets cost $10 and seating is limited.

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:20090816T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20090816T160000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175332Z CREATED:20090804T233355Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175332Z UID:10001701-1250431200-1250438400@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Santa Fe Living Treasures Book-signing event DESCRIPTION:The new Santa Fe Living Treasures — Our Elders\, Our Hearts\, Vol. II\, 1994-2008 will debut at a free book-signing in the Palace Courtyard. Join past and present recipients of the "treasures" honor\, celebrating its 25th anniversary. \nThe much-anticipated second book of Santa Fe Living Treasures will debut at a book-signing on Sunday\, Aug. 16\, 2-4pm in the courtyard of the Palace of the Governors. 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;TZID=America/Denver:20090726T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20090726T160000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175325Z CREATED:20090724T030100Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175325Z UID:10001669-1248616800-1248624000@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Juggling Identities: Identity and Authenticity Among the Crypto-Jews Lecture and booksigning DESCRIPTION:Seth D. Kunin\, Vice Chancellor and Head of Faculty for Britain's Durham University\, will speak on his new book\, Juggling Identities: Identity and Authenticity Among the Crypto-Jews in the New Mexico History Museum Auditorium. 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 BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20090719T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20090719T160000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175325Z CREATED:20090424T000204Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175325Z UID:10001670-1248012000-1248019200@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:A History of the Ancient Southwest Lecture and booksigning DESCRIPTION:Dr. Stephen Lekson\, a curator and associate professor of anthropology at the University of Colorado\, received his doctorate in anthropology from the University of New Mexico. He has more than 25 years of experience in Southwestern archaeology\, with field research in Chaco Canyon\, the Mesa Verde region\, the Rio Grande\, the Mimbres area\, and the Hohokam region of southern Arizona. He has worked for the National Park Service\, Arizona State Museum and the Museum of New Mexico. \nFrom 1992-95\, he was president of the Crow Canyon Archaeological Center. Dr. Lekson's books include Intrigue of the Past: Discovering Archaeology in New Mexico; Chaco Canyon: A Center and Its World; and Great Pueblo Architecture of Chaco Canyon\, New Mexico.  He has been an invited speaker at many conferences and public lectures\, including the Smithosnian Institution\, the Archaeological Institute of AMerica\, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Arts. He has been a featured speaker on several radio and television specials\, including National Public Radio\, the Discovery Channel and the History Channel. \nIn his 1999 book\, The Chaco Meridian: Centers of Power in the Ancient Southwest\, Dr. Lekson argued that Anasazi prehistory begins at Chaco Canyon\, where a small group of people resided beginning around 900 AD. By 1100 AD or so\, Chaco had become a ceremonial center\, the like of which had not so far been seen in the American southwest. But something happened\, and in 1125\, building stopped at Chaco. Construction at Aztec Ruin\, located north of Chaco Canyon\, began in the Chacoan style around 1110\, and continued until around 1275. The earliest dates for Paquime\, or Casas Grandes\, a center larger than Chaco but far to the south in Mexico\, are 1250 to 1300 and they extend to around 1500 AD. And all three are aligned on approximately the same longitude; 107 degrees\, 57 minutes and 25 seconds. Lekson argues that this is no coincidence\, that the elite families of all three sites were related\, and that the alignment was an intentional and meaningful one. \nBut the argument isn't\, of course\, that simple\, and in fact Lekson documents similarities–and differences–between ceramic styles and building styles and the presence of exotic materials such as macaws\, gulf coast shells and copper bells. Interestingly\, Lekson interweaves information from Native American origin myths\, reminiscent of the work of anthropologist Robert Hall. \nHis findings reveal a “livelier” Southwest than that which we have become accustom to hearing. Dr. Lekson brings new insight to how “a pervasive Southwestern Mystique . . . has glossed over ancient (and modern) realities.” It is a new telling of an old story.

They illustrate the vibrant culture of rural northern New Mexico and its inhabitants with a cast of common characters\, above all women\, whose compassion\, willfulness\, humor\, observation\, and spirit reflect the rich heritage of the environment that inspired their creation. \nSome of García's characters proclaim their own goodness and live on to enjoy that righteousness; others fall victim to the shortcomings of human nature. Regardless\, laughter\, empathy\, and introspection are the common threads that connect these wonderful stories to one another. \nGarcía originally wrote these tales in his native tongue\, Spanish\, and later translated them into English. Both versions appear here with a bilingual glossary that places regional terms and local idioms side-by-side for those unfamiliar with northern New Mexico Spanish. \nGarcía is a folklorist and native New Mexican. He has published 10 books on Hispanic folklore and the oral history of Northern New Mexico and for three decades has dedicated his time to the preservation of New Mexico’s Hispanic culture and language. García is a popular lecturer and reader. A doctor of nineteenth-century Spanish literature\, García formerly taught at New Mexico Highlands University in Las Vegas. García lives in Santa Fe.

Moreover\, the tanned and smoothed hides carry the very faces of men whose descendants live in New Mexico today. Perhaps both paintings illustrate military expeditions dispatched from the Palace of the Governors\, when it was called las casas reales\, the royal houses. \nThe hides are on display in the Palace of the Governors; a computer interactive offering more detailed information about the sections is next door at the New Mexico History Museum (on the same campus) and can also be found online here. \nHow they came to be at the Palace of the Governors is a tale as circuitous as it was fortuitous. The hides found their way back to the Southwest—and eventually to the Palace—more than 200 years after Philipp von Segesser von Brunegg\, a Jesuit priest\, sent them to his family in Switzerland in 1758. It is believed that he acquired them in Sonora\, Mexico\, between 1732 and 1758\, from the Anzas\, a family that was prominent in military and civil affairs in both New Mexico and the Sonoran village where Father Segesser’s mission was situated. \nThe existence of the hide paintings had long had been known\, but their availability came to light in 1983 when another museum wanted to borrow them\, only to discover that the von Segesser who then owned them wanted to sell rather than lend. Enter the interest of the Palace of the Governors\, which purchased in 1988 the hide paintings designated Segesser I and Segesser II. \nSegesser I and II were painted on hides\, likely bison\, that had been tanned to make them supple\, pumiced so that the grain was no longer visible\, and sewn together to form a large canvas. The hides do not exhibit any distinctive ground or gesso layer under the paint. \nSome scholars believe that the Segesser Hide Paintings were created in New Mexico\, where imported canvas was rare and processed hides were used for a variety of purposes\, including paintings on hide\, or reposteros\, that were exported to Mexico. There is documentary evidence that hides were painted in workshops in Santa Fe. Because the Segesser renderings include several distinct styles\, some scholars suggest that as many as three artists painted specific elements of the overall rendering. We believe that the artists were indigenous New Mexicans with tribal affiliation who had the benefit of eyewitness descriptions and were taught European painting techniques. Yet the Segesser paintings were not rendered in a traditional European style typical of military paintings of that era; rather they are more characteristic of indigenous or folk-art paintings. \nThe late 17th and early 18th centuries were the final great period of European battle tapestries. Such textiles\, imported to the Americas\, might have influenced the commissioned Segesser hides. The hides contain wide\, broadly painted flower and leaf borders that simulate carved or gilded frames\, which also was typical of European tapestries from the same era. \n \nSegesser I \nThis set of hides represents an encounter between rival tribesmen\, the attacking side possibly accompanied by a Spanish leader. Scholars agree that the painting’s features\, including hills\, cliffs\, deciduous trees\, bison\, deer and pumas\, indicate that this encounter took place over varied terrain. \nWho took part in the conflict and where and when it occurred remains the subject of scholarly debate. Basing their theories on historical records and the painting’s account of the event\, some scholars suggest that Segesser I portrays one or more Spanish officers with Indian allies—possibly the Manso\, Opata\, Tlascalan\, Tarascan\, Pima and a faction of the Suma—who are attacking rival Sumas or Apaches\, in the El Paso\, Texas region. \nOthers say that the painters were unfamiliar with both the encounter and the cultures involved\, and so substituted familiar individuals\, animals and terrain in a painting that actually portrays Pueblo Indian auxiliaries attacking Plains Apache Indians. Such fighting took place in any one of a half-dozen expeditions launched between 1693 and 1719 from the Palace to the eastern plains to discourage raids by tribal factions. \nBecause the encounter has not been pinpointed\, it is not known if the individuals behind the wooden palisade are members of the defending tribe or captive slaves taken from other tribes. The attackers on horseback are equipped with Spanish weapons\, clothing and leather armor to distinguish them from the opposition. \nThere are pieces missing from the original rendering. Parts were separated from the work sometime before 1908 and given to a Segesser family member where they are today. \nSegesser II \nThese hides depict a disastrous\, 1720 rout of Spanish troops and their allies in present-day Nebraska. \nThroughout the Spanish Colonial period\, officials at the Palace of the Governors routinely dispatched troops to patrol and explore beyond the colonial boundaries. Hearing of encroachment by the French\, New Mexico Governor Antonio Valverde y Cosio dispatched Spanish troops and Pueblo Indian auxiliaries to verify the rumors. Led by New Mexico Lieutenant Governor and Commander-in-chief Pedro de Villasur\, the military expedition also was charged with locating a suitable site on the remote eastern plains for a Spanish military post\, requested by the Spanish Viceroy in Mexico City. \nThe Villasur expedition headed north from Santa Fe to Taos\, turned east\, then northeast into present-day Kansas. They followed a Pawnee route to the Platte River\, moving north into eastern Nebraska. Beyond the junction of the Platte and Loup rivers\, they encountered a large Pawnee Indian encampment. Villasur initiated a dialogue and asked Juan de Archibeque (Jean l’Archévêque)\, a Frenchman and expedition interpreter\, to write a letter in French to a European within the Pawnee camp. The efforts failed and sensing a potentially hostile situation\, the expedition retreated and camped at the confluence of the Loup and Platte rivers. \nThe Segesser II painting can be pinpointed to the August 13\, 1720\, skirmish at the expedition camp. After daybreak\, the Pawnee and their Oto Indian allies—illustrated throughout the painting by their painted and unclothed bodies and shaved or close-cropped heads—ambushed the Villasur party. The painting also includes 37 French soldiers\, identified by their European-style clothing—conical hats\, coats\, breeches\, cuffs and leggings—firing long arms at the Spanish military expedition. \nComposed of 43 royal troops\, three Spanish civilians\, 60 Pueblo Indian auxiliaries and several other Indian allies\, the Villasur expedition was caught off guard\, and the pitched battle left many of them for dead in the tall prairie grass. The attack was a major catastrophe for New Mexico and casualties amounted to a third of the province’s best soldiers. The center of the painting portrays French soldiers with Pawnee and Oto supporters surrounding the camp. At the right of the painting\, Villasur expedition members who were guarding the animals are shown running to assist their Spanish comrades. \nInterestingly\, oral and written accounts of the battle do not mention French soldiers in the area of the encounter. Several Villasur survivors reported a volley of musket fire\, but in the confusion of the battle\, they did not know who was attacking them. It is possible that French traders took part in the ambush. Governor Valverde y Cosio\, perhaps in an effort to defend the actions of Villasur\, reported “two hundred Frenchmen had fired\, supported by a countless number of Pawnee allies.” \n  \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/segesser-hide-paintings-2/ LOCATION:New Mexico History Museum\, 113 Lincoln Avenue\, Santa Fe\, NM\, 87501\, United States CATEGORIES:Exhibition ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/37_1200.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:20080424 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20180802 DTSTAMP:20230627T203820Z CREATED:20080424T060000Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230627T203820Z UID:10001335-1208995200-1533167999@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Segesser Hide Paintings DESCRIPTION: URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/segesser-hide-paintings/ LOCATION:New Mexico History Museum\, 113 Lincoln Avenue\, Santa Fe\, NM\, 87501\, United States CATEGORIES:Exhibition 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
