New Mexico: Living Relief
February 2019
New Mexico: Living Relief" is an exhibition of contemporary artists of our region dedicated to relief printmaking, including those working in the southern part of our state. From below the 34th latitude are prints from Fred Barraza, Phillip Parotti, and Chris Bardey, all of whom were prominent in Silver City during last year's Southwest Print Fiesta. This show also follows the relief exhibition at the Albuquerque Museum last year -- "The Carved Line: Block Printmaking in New Mexico" -- which was organized in part by Santa Fe printmaker Scott Parker, who is having a solo show in the main gallery. Albuquerque and Santa Fe artists featured include Henry Morales, Mary Sweet, Jan Vanderburg, Mike Kimball, Karsten Creightney, Kate Coucke, Kaitlin Reese, Julianna Kirwin, Juana Estrada Hernandez, Thayer Carter, Christy Scwathe, and Andrew Fernside. From across the border, artists include Fransisco Delgado, Raul Monarrez, Marco Sanchez, and Pavel Asevedo.
