The collection of objects, artifacts, photographs, and paintings is masterful. Thank you Joe Traugott for giving us such a magnificent exhibition!
I'm not an art critic, nor an expert, just passionate about everything New Mexico. I can tell you that this is an experience that brings all your senses alive! Here you meet the most intriguing artists who became famous in different years and are now part of history, the history of art. You can enjoy the variety of pots produced over the centuries to our days, and appreciate the expressions of Native, Hispanic, and European Americans. These 120 works of art help us understand the region's diverse and rich cultures, something one doesn't easily find elsewhere.
The book "New Mexico Art through Time" it's worth the $50. Become a Museums of New Mexico Foundation' member and you save 10% and tax!
