With his outdoor sculpture Galactic Playground, 2018, Eduardo Navarro (b.1979 in Buenos Aries) has created a large- scale interactive game board based on the cycles of the sun. Like a brightly colored spaceship that has landed in Santa Fe for a six-month visit, Navarro's work is activated by the cosmos. Like a sundial, predictable in its movements yet constantly shifting in its qualities, the work reminds the viewer of the extreme distance in time and space between itself and the force that activates it. The indispensable sun creates the rules and timeline of the game, which, however, is available to be played at any time, by anyone or anything.

Working across painting, sculpture, photography, collage and recently screen printing, Rolande Souilere's (Michipicoten First Nation) art practice is primarily installation that combines abstraction with organic forms, the hand crafted and the assisted readymade.

Through the use of Ojibway, Cree, and Inuit syllabics, Souliere utilizes aspects of this writing system to engage in ideas about space, color, form, symbolism, surface movement, and language. Her new wall painting is an exploration into the parallels and the multifaceted ways in which simple geometric building blocks such as chevrons, circles, and rectangles have a profound affinity with Indigenous language and culture and abstraction in western art.

Holly Wilson (Delaware Tribe of Western Oklahoma/Cherokee) presents her new narrative works created in a variety of media including bronze, wood, and encaustic. Her figures serve as her storytellers to the world. They often resemble stick figures, animals with human characteristics, or figures wearing masks. The stories are both representation of family history as well as personal experiences. With museum admission, 505-983-1666, iaia.edu.

After an extensive renovation, the Museum of International Folk Art will reopen Lloyd's Treasure Chest: Folk Art in Focus. The gallery will offer visitors a place to explore, interact, and create folk art. Because the Museum's entire 136,000-object collection can never be on view at the same time, collections are carefully stored and cared for in rooms such as the Neutrogena Vault, which visitors can view from the Treasure Chest gallery. Visitors will take “the vehicle to the vault” to the museum's lower level where the collection vault is located. The exhibition presents new ways to think about folk art and its cultural context with books, maps, and baskets they can touch, as well as explore intangible forms of expressive culture, like music. While there is no one definition of folk art, Lloyd's Treasure Chest embodies multiple perspectives and helps us come closer to an understanding of “What is Folk Art?” Patrons of all ages will find engaging participatory experiences with hands-on activities such as origami-making, kite-coloring, a community basket-making activity, and a musical instrument (a Javanese gamelan instrument).

Meeting the Clouds Halfway is a collaboration between Tohono O'odham basket weaver Terrol Dew Johnson and architects Aranda\Lasch (Ben Aranda and Chris Lasch) from Tucson and New York. The exhibition features contemporary basketry and architecture that blend traditional craft with modern design. The artworks explore the desert surrounding Tucson as a place of inspiration and opportunity. Based on a shared interest in traditional Tohono O'odham practices and their bearing on modern life, the works are made from the four natural materials of the desert: rock, copper, wood, and grass.

The role of artist communities in New Mexico is explored through works by members of the Taos Society of Artists, Los Cinco Pintores, Transcendental Painting Group, Rio Grande Painters, and the Stieglitz circle. Despite their shared desire to form a creative community, each of these groups had a distinctive aesthetic and set of guiding principles. The juxtaposition of these five groups offers a closer look at what makes each unique.

Beginning during World War II, with the research and fabrication of nuclear weapons in Los Alamos for the Manhattan Project and the first atomic bomb test at the Trinity site near Alamogordo, New Mexico's story is linked with the history of nuclear science and innovation.

As soon as the war was over and the Cold War began, national laboratories were founded in Los Alamos and Albuquerque that advanced the technologies of war, and later would be pioneers in cutting edge physics, chemistry, and other scientific fields. Mines in the Grants Mineral Belt were opened in the western part of the state to unearth the fuel for both weapons and new sources of energy. More recently, the state was chosen to be the disposal site for nuclear waste byproducts at the Waste Isolation Pilot Project in Carlsbad. A new uranium enrichment plant has opened in Eunice. Old projects ended and new challenges have emerged, but in the 21st century New Mexico is still at the forefront of our nation's nuclear scientific endeavors.

This exhibit explores famous events, little-known stories, and inventions born here which affect our lives, and recognizes the remarkable contributions of thousands of people involved in writing New Mexico's atomic history for the last 75 years.

Action Abstraction Redefined features artworks from MoCNA's permanent collection created in the 1960s and 70s. These early works are a visual testimony to the Institute's revolutionary approach to art education that sparked a cultural change within Native Art by defying the standards imposed upon by the dominant society since the 18th century.

IAIA students during the 60s and 70s were exposed to modern art movements such as Cubism, Abstract Expressionism, and Colorfield, and were encouraged to study and experiment with cultural designs, colors, and techniques from their own heritage. The result of this artistic approach was an outpouring of creative expression that received regional and national attention.

Among the artists included in this exhibition are George Morrison (Ojibwe), Earl Biss (Crow), T.C. Cannon (Caddo/Kiowa), Fritz Scholder (Mission/Luiseño), Earl Eder (Yanktonai Sioux), Neil Parsons (Blackfeet), Kevin Red Star (Crow), Connie Red Star (Crow), George Burdeau (Blackfeet), Ralph Aragon (San Felipe/Acoma Pueblos), Henry Hank Gobin (Tulalip/Snohomish), Alice Loiselle (Chippewa), and Carl Tubby (Choctaw). This exhibition will explore how these works fit within the idea of art movements that occurred in Santa Fe as well as art styles that were part of the mainstream art world.

Some of these artists approached their chosen medium in a direct, intuitive and spontaneous way, and as a result their paintings and drawings are very intense and expressive. Several of their works seem to express the artist's inner feelings and emotions. Drips, splatters, and accidental gestures are part of their compositions. Others were interested in experimenting with biomorphic shapes reminding of forms inspired by nature. Some of their drawings are characterized by fields of pure flat colors, and reflect their interest in the effect of color on human perception.
