A Contemporary View of Santa Fe
(Santa Fe Homes Blog) Santa Fe Community College’s School of Arts and Design will be hosting a special exhibit on January 29 titled, “Through the Lens: A Contemporary View of Santa Fe.” The exhibit will be held in the Visual Arts Gallery on the campus, which is located at 6401 Richards Ave. “Through the Lens: A Contemporary View of Santa Fe” will run through March 9. Attendees will be able to enjoy 40 images by contemporary photographers living and working in Santa Fe. It is a companion exhibition to “Through the Lens: Creating Santa Fe,” which is on display at the Palace of the Governors Museum through October.
The exhibition presents a diverse and contemporary view of Santa Fe through images that document the cultural changes that have occurred in Santa Fe across the past forty years. Polly Brown, Blair Clark, Jack Parsons, and Meridel Rubenstein are among the included photographers whose work examines the history and contemporary realities of Northern New
Mexico.
An opening reception will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 29, and features a talk by Andrew Lovato, assistant professor of speech communication at SFCC, at 6 p.m. Lovato, who holds a doctorate in intercultural communication from University of New Mexico, has lectured widely and has written and co-written five books on Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico.
Images of the Santa Fe was superb at the exhibition. I would like to see them online. can you please post a collection of those images for us?
I am reading this blog too late. I agree with David, can you make a follow up post with some pictures of the event? I would have loved to attend the event. Maybe next year I will make it if they have another one.
Well a very good initiative of creating public awareness of the progress made by Santa Fe so far & that too from a gallery imparting vision of its native photographers…
