Summer Winter is an exhibition of handwoven garments by Margaret Roach Wheeler and fiber artworks by Mahota Textiles, the first tribally owned textile company in the U.S. The exhibition presents sixteen garments inspired by Indigenous symbology and textile traditions from the southwest to the northeast alongside functional textiles that honor history's unnamed weavers and fiber artists. Included in this exhibition are artist collaborations with Marwin Begay (Navajo/Diné) and Alice McKee and Maria Mayo. Summer Winter highlights Wheeler’s contributions to contemporary Indigenous fashion design, while bringing attention to the broader network of Indigenous craft traditions in the U.S.
This exhibition's opening reception coincides with the opening of the inaugural Native Fashion Week Santa Fe. Headed by Indigenous fashion expert Amber-Dawn Bear Robe, Native Fashion Week Santa Fe celebrates Indigenous designers, showcasing their innovations to entertain, educate, and evolve the fashion landscape. In collaboration with Native Fashion Week Santa Fe, our sister gallery, form & concept, is hosting a trunk show by award winning jeweler Neeko Garcia (Diné (Navajo)/Hispanic) in the gallery shop.
Terra Madre features Katrina Bello’s charcoal and pastel drawings of natural surfaces on paper, photographic prints on metal, and soundless videos. This exhibition includes drawings produced during Bello’s residency at the Helene Wurlitzer Residency in Taos, NM, and invites viewers to ponder how land, landscape, and memory form the complex fabric of our identities.
Markings from Fire is an exhibition of wood-fired ceramics, charcoal drawings, 3-D printed flasks, and a sound installation by multimedia artist and former United States Forest Service firefighter Avi Farber. In this exhibition, Farber brings his experience of working in the burn scar of the most devastating fire in New Mexico’s history, the 2022 Calf Canyon/Hermits Peak Fire, and its aftermath, to form & concept to better understand humanity’s role within the natural world. Through ceramic works made from prehistoric minerals, ruins, locally sourced clays, and wood preserved using a burning technique similar to the Japanese practice of shou sugi ban, Farber creates a portrait of fire’s direct and obtuse impacts on public land, private residences, and natural and man-made landscapes. Together, these works invite viewers to reflect on themes of impermanence and existential meaning on various scales of time, from a single human’s experience of a tragic event to Earth’s genesis and its eons of environmental transformation that impact us all and call for deep collective reflection.
100 Years of Collecting|100 Years of Connecting is on view through December 13, 2025 at the Nuevo Mexicano Heritage Arts Museum, located at 750 Camino Lejo on Museum Hill in Santa Fe. Admission is free. Hours are noon to 4 p.m. Wednesday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. For more information, visit nmheritagearts.org.
The exhibition marks the Spanish Colonial Arts Society's centennial by telling its century-long story of creating and caring for an extraordinary trove of nearly 4,000 objects representing the distinctive Hispano heritage of New Mexico. This provides a unique lens on the Society’s legacy of connecting to a community of artists and supporters of Hispano arts in New Mexico and beyond.
Join us on 27 June from 5 to 7 PM for the opening reception of Markings from Fire, an exhibition of wood-fired ceramics, charcoal drawings, 3-D printed flasks, and a sound installation by multimedia artist and former United States Forest Service firefighter Avi Farber. In this exhibition, Farber explores environmental ecology, psychology, and sociology through materials, such as finely ground clay, Ponderosa Pine ash, and feldspar mineral dug in and around Abiquiú, NM. The ecosystems, geology, and deep history of the places Farber lives and works inform his ceramic sculptures, panels, flasks, and charcoal drawings that call attention to the way humans have shaped raw materials into objects since the emergence of fire.
