SHOPPING IN SANTA FE From the time of the ancient Anazasi, the Santa Fe area has been a trading center. The Santa Fe Trail is synonymous with the romance of the old west, and from the time of New Mexico statehood in 1912, Santa Fe has been a multicultural art center and shoppers’ paradise.
Santa Fe is a top US art center, with museums, shopping, Year-round outdoor activities, top flight restaurants, spas, and world famous cultural events. It’s not just your grandparents’ Santa Fe, it’s walkable, historic, charming, and exciting.A high desert destination of distinction and fun.

ARTISTS ARE ALWAYS AN INTERESTING BUNCH, and the one behind the image on this week’s cover of NOW is no exception. Having watched ceramic artist Heidi Loewen develop her career during the past several years, I’m amazed by her evolving creativity and growth. When I once took a ceramic class from her, I saw her creative spirit at work (even while I was making my own ugly little pot). The enthusiasm and joy Heidi puts into her art and her teaching is contagious and uplift-ing. When I see her work, I see joy. It’s amazing that she can achieve such a feat through a primarily nonrepresentational medium.
That joy that Heidi has for life is evident in everything she does, so it’s no wonder it’s apparent in her art as well. Whenever Heidi attends an event in Santa Fe, she usually dons the most outrageous and colorful outfit. Hats and shoes are her fashion specialty, and if something’s bright red, so much the better. If you see a woman at a party wearing a boa, that’s probably Heidi.
While this character may dress wildly, her ceramics have a classy and elegant quality. I think that’s tied to Heidi’s youthful spirit, which is adventurous (she’s a helluva skier) and eternally curious. Plus, Heidi is a woman who wants to make a statement in her artwork as well as in her being. There’s a lesson for all of us in these qualities.

Matsuri: Japan Festival 2015 If Shohko Café, San Q, and Izanami
are among your favorite Santa Fe eateries, mark your calendar for Saturday, March 28, when the 11th annual Matsuri comes to town. The daylong festival showcases Japan’s cuisine, art, music, and dancing and is sponsored by the Santa Fe Japan Intercultural Network (Santa Fe JIN), which, according to its website, works “to introduce the unique culture of Japan and to provide opportunities for those who wish to participate in the cultural diversity of Santa Fe.” With more than 2,000 people expected to attend this year’s event, Santa Fe JIN appears to be succeeding in its mission. “Our Japanese community is small, only around 70 to 80 people,” says Santa Fe JIN president Satori Murata, “but we take pride in offering something a little different to Santa Fe.”
This year, guests can enjoy martial arts demonstrations by local teachers and students as well as a performance by world-renowned taiko drummer Ringtaro. Traditional Japanese dances and music performances are also on the schedule, as are traditional tea ceremonies throughout the day. Food will be provided by a number of local restaurants.
One dollar of each admission fee will be contributed to Japan Aid Fund, a foundation Santa Fe JIN founded to help victims of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami. Proceeds from two silent auctions will support Santa Fe JIN’s scholarship fund for adults and children interested in studying in Japan. —Emily Van Cleve

Street Homeless Animal Project If you’ve ever noticed that many homeless people
have dogs, you’re not alone. Karen Cain realized the same thing back in 1998, when she started a nonprofit to help provide veterinary care, food, and supplies to the animals belonging to Santa Fe’s homeless population.
The Street Homeless Animal Project (SHAP) has been running on private donations for the past 17 years, but Cain hopes the organization will see its 2015 budget surge after it receives five percent of the net sales at Whole Foods Market’s two Santa Fe locations on April 1 as part of the store’s Community Giving Day event.
“We operated on between $70,000 and $75,000 last year, but our program is growing and our needs are increasing,” says Cain, who is SHAP’s only paid staff member. “For many homeless people, these beings are the only family they have. The animals are vital to them for so many reasons. We’ve been working with approximately 300 animals annually.”
SHAP collaborates with two volunteer vets who walk the streets with Cain, looking for animals in need. The organization also relies on help from Smith Veterinary Hospital and the Santa Fe Animal Shelter’s Wellness Clinic. Animals are spayed or neutered as a condition of being part of the program.—EVC

the Trio Bijou
Violinist and vocalist Gemma DeRagon loves jazz by the greats: Duke Ellington, Cole Porter, Stéphane Grappelli, Louis Armstrong, and Ella Fitzgerald. So back in 2013, when the Berklee College of Music alum decided to start her own vintage string jazz band, she auditioned talented musicians who could re-create those sounds, improvise, and, most importantly, have fun on stage.
“I loved how Andy Zadrozny plays the bass,” says DeRagon of the Seattle transplant and music instructor who’s now a part of the band. “He suggested I meet guitarist Andy Gabrys [also a Berklee graduate]. Both of them are master musicians, and they really like the music I want to play.”
Performing under the name Trio Bijou, DeRagon, Zadrozny, and Gabrys play together several times a month at the Zia Diner. Although they took February off (DeRagon was playing music in Mexico), they’ve resumed their normal schedule at the Guadalupe Street eatery and will next appear on April 2.
Zadrozny and Gabrys are so skilled, DeRagon says, that all she has to do is hand them her basic playlist right before each show. No rehearsals necessary.
“They look at my chart for about five seconds, and they know what to do,” she explains. “It’s really all about improvisation. I may sing or scat for awhile or decide to play the violin. They flow along with me. Nothing’s fixed ahead of time. We just have a lot of fun.”—EVC

old-school revenge Western The villain in The Salvation is so bad.
This film is a Western that embraces classic archetypes, so of course the villain’s dusty cowboy hat is black. His coat is red, which is a nice touch, and there’s no bottom to how low-down evil he’ll be: He shoots civilians in the head while their families watch, and he tortures and terrorizes a little frontier town. He’s killed a lot of Indians, we’re told, and this seems to have truly warped his mind.
The Salvation shares DNA with great Westerns across all media: novels such as Blood Meridian and Lonesome Dove and the television show Deadwood. Those works depict the post–Civil War frontier as merciless vastness where life
was difficult and cheap. Dread hangs over the early parts of this movie because the family we initially meet is beautiful and doomed.
no ordinary woman Pablita Velarde: Out of the
Ordinary, an exhibit on view at the Pablita Velarde Museum of Indian Women in the Arts, has been extended through April 15. The show celebrates the decades-long career of Velarde (1918–2006), a member of Santa Clara Pueblo who became the first female art student at the Santa Fe Indian School and the first female professional Native American painter. In the 1930s and ’40s, she served as the WPA artist-in-residence at Bandelier National Monument, and in 1954 she was awarded the Ordre des Palmes Académiques from the French government. —Whitney Spivey Pablita Velarde: Out of the Ordinary, $10 ($5 seniors, students, military personnel, and New Mexico residents), through April 15, 505-988-8900, Pablita Velarde Museum of Indian Women in the Arts, 213 Cathedral, pvmiwa.org
Jon (Mads Mikkelsen, whose asymmetric face is like artwork) is a Danish settler who came to America and, after spending seven years establishing himself, is finally joined by his wife and son. This being the vicious open range of the American West, Jon and his family have to take a long carriage ride from the train station to their home. Two scary drunk outlaw types are on that carriage, and events turn terrible.
Revenge begets revenge begets revenge. Jon kills the men who kill his wife and son, but one is brother to the man in the black hat and red coat, and he’s got a nasty streak that could send the sun setting early. The Salvation is grittily realistic, but it builds to righteous bloodshed that doesn’t quite embrace the hyper-real ethos of movies such as Unforgiven and Open Range, where the morality of killing comes into play and the essential act of gunning someone down from far away proves difficult. When bullets fly at the end of this film, it’s a stylized violence that’s effective and brutal.
You want your hero beaten down, time after time, so his rise ultimately thrills. Watching Jon endure awfulness and then hunt the black hat is the essence of Western storytelling. It hurts, and it feels great.—Phil Parker

island soundsHawaiian musical duo Hapa performs at The Lensic
SANTA FE MAY BE 3,000 miles from Hawaii, but island music will fill The Lensic on March 29 when Hapa comes to town. The duo—Barry Flanagan and Kapono Na’ili’ili—merges traditional South Pacific influences with rock, blues, folk, and jazz to create a sound that’s a little bit hula and a little bit Frank Sinatra.
“We celebrate the mythology of Hawaii and its land as a place of worship,” says Flanagan, who moved from New Jersey to the 50th state in 1980 and founded Hapa in 1983. “Music was a huge part of my life by the time I moved to Hawaii; I was playing all kinds of music on the guitar, sometimes 10 hours a day,” he says. “As soon as I arrived, I fell in love with the place and started learning how to play the slack-key guitar.”

Hapa (meaning “half” in Hawaiian) comprises one musician of South Pacific ancestry (Na’ili’ili) and one musician (Flanagan) from the mainland.
In 1993, Flanagan released his first album, Hapa, which earned six Na Hoku Hanohano (a.k.a. Hawaiian Grammy) awards. Subsequent releases have featured collaborations with prominent Hawaiian musicians, including guitarist Nathan Aweau, vocalist Keli’l Kaneali’l, and pop star Don Ho.
Working with Na’ili’ili is a fairly recent endeavor—the duo has been together for about three months—but the chemistry between the artists, even though they’re a generation apart, is electric.
“[Na’ili’ili is] so talented; he plays the cello and chants, surfs, and is a hula dancer,” Flanagan says. “He’s infusing the group with the energy of his youth.”
Flanagan and Na’ili’ili will be joined on stage by bass player and vocalist Tarvin Lono Makia and hula dancer Radasha Ho’ohuli.

Tweedythe buzz-worthy duo, featuring Wilco’s front man and his talented son, performs at The Lensic
IN EARLY MARCH, ROCKER Jeff Tweedy kicked off a national tour in his hometown of Chicago, but not with his Grammy Award–winning band Wilco. Instead, he’s on the road with his 19-year-old son Spencer, as the duo Tweedy, to support their debut release, Sukierae. The album is named in honor of Jeff ’s wife (Spencer’s mother), who inadvertently inspired many of the 20 songs on the album.
Sue Miller (a.k.a. Sukierae) was diagnosed with two different kinds of cancer when Jeff began writing material for the album early last year. (She’s currently finishing treatments and doing well.) “Dad wrote the majority of the songs at home,” says Spencer, who plays drums on the album and on tour. “He and I shaped some of the songs together, although my main contribution is that I offer a lot of myself in my drumming.”
It’s purely coincidental, however, that certain tunes, such as “Nobody Dies Anymore,” are part of the album, as Jeff wrote a number of them before his wife’s diagnosis. Some of the material was also inspired by the death of Jeff’s brother Greg in 2013.

covering keyboards and guitar. Part of the show features Jeff soloing on tunes from the catalogs of Wilco and his former alt-country band, Uncle Tupelo.
For Spencer, who started playing around with drums at his mother’s bar when he was two years old, the tour is a dream come true. One day last year, while he was finishing up his senior year of high school, Jeff asked him to show up at the studio after school. “I’ve always wanted to be a musician and have a band,” Spencer says, “but I never thought I’d have the opportunity to make an album with my dad.”

Coyote Cafe Eric DiStefano, executive chef and co-owner of Coyote Cafe, is excited for the re-opening of the eatery’s seasonal Rooftop Cantina in mid-April. The chef is touting the cantina’s new menu, which will include a version of the colorful Maine lobster salad pictured here. “Obviously, lobsters aren’t running around here in the middle of the desert, so this salad’s not on the permanent menu,” DiStefano says. “For now we’ll run it as a special, but as [business] gets busier we’ll do another [weekly lobster] shipment.” DiStefano uses the claws and knuckles of the rich-tasting crustacean for the salad, and he uses the rest of the meat to make bouillon stock for bisque and other dishes. He varies the salad fixings based on the fresh greens and vegetables available in his kitchen, but the version seen here includes locally grown peas and shoots, purple cauliflower, Romanesco broccoli, and purple and green radishes. —Cristina OldsCoyote Cafe, 132 W Water, coyotecafe.com

The Shed “Saturday morning can be a busy Bloody Mary morning,” says The Shed mixologist Abby Freismuth, referring to the classic hair-of-the-dog cocktail. Her fellow mixologist, Erica Kramer (pictured), makes the complex beverage with a secret tomato juice mix, fresh lime, horseradish, Worcestershire and Tabasco sauces, celery salt, a hint of The Shed’s famous red chile, and Vodka Viracocha distilled by KGB Spirits of Alcalde, New Mexico. Served in a tall Tom Collins glass and garnished with a green olive, a slice of lime, and a peperoncini, this drink can really pack a punch. “We limit people to drinking only three [at one sitting],” Freismuth says.—Cristina OldsThe Shed, 113 ½ E Palace, sfshed.com

THE EMPTY SPACE surrounding art is often as significant as the art itself—a concept that’s ex-plored in a new show at Zane Bennett Contem-porary Art called Keeping Things Whole.
The gallery’s recent exhibits, Under 35 and Mas-ter Prints, also address notions of space, but Keeping Things Whole adds three sculptors into the mix, “to let the negative space between sculpted objects and objects on the wall do its thing,” says sales director Gage Peer. “We want this show to be as much about sculpture as we can, how presence presents itself essentially.”
Works by Guy Dill and Dunham Aurelius create the ends of the show’s spectrum. Though Dill’s pieces are monumental in size, they appear light and fluid as they whirl through space. Au-relius’s earthy works of wood, steel, and bronze show the artist’s hand in each primitive material; Rocky, for example, is a carved head with an elon-gated neck, which the artist created by hacking and chiseling away at the wood.
Keeping Things Wholea new sculpture exhibit explore s what ’s conveyed through pre sence and absence
Holding the middle ground, or perhaps ground of her own, Rachel Stevens introduces a new body of work inspired by her travels to western Ukraine, an area that bears the remnants of a Jewish population that was nearly extinguished dur-ing the Nazi reign. “There was something about the interplay between the beauty and fertility of the land, in conjunction with the ruins of a people, that fueled this new work,” Stevens says. Her meditations on the land’s protective nature led to the series There’s Safety in the Forest, four works that depict natural forms and often in-corporate text. Testimony, for example, shows four welded, steel trees, below which are porcelain letters that spell out quotations from survivors who escaped to the forest and fought the Nazis. On a figurative level, the absence/presence of these people speaks to the theme of the exhibit—and keeps things whole.

WARD RUSSELL’S EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE as a cinema-tographer allowed him to smoothly transition into a career as a distin-guished photographer. His latest works use dramatic lighting to convey intense emotion in both fine art portraits and street photography.
After earning a degree in theatrical design and lighting from the University of Kansas, Russell made his way to Los Angeles, where he joined the lighting division of Universal Studios. His first credit as a cinematographer was the 1990 Tony Scott–directed film Days of Thunder, starring Tom Cruise. Impressed with Russell’s talent, Scott recruited him for additional projects, including the 1991 Bruce Willis movie The Last Boy Scout, and the duo formed a working relationship that lasted more than 10 years. (Scott died in 2012.)
Russell remains a film lover, ever impressed by the advances in cin-ematography, but in 2007, after almost 35 years in the motion picture industry, he shifted his focus to photography. “As a stills photographer, I’m always looking for that moment in time that has more to say than just being a pretty shot,” Russell says. “To me, the story in the image is very important.”
Another distinguishing characteristic of Russell’s photography is the use of lighting to create shape and depth—something he’s familiar with, thanks to his career in Hollywood. When working on films, he says, “most everything had to be lit. If the scene was [shot outdoors in daytime], I was limited to sun and shade. The challenge was to maneu-ver the camera to take advantage of the light.”
Beyond the storytelling component and signature dramatic lighting, Russell’s work isn’t easily typecast. “As a cinematographer I had to be able to photograph everything, and in my current work I still tend to photograph everything,” he says. “Galleries want a ‘Ward Russell look,’ but with my own gallery I can exhibit what I want to exhibit—cactuses at night on one wall, tango from Buenos Aires on [another] wall.”
Russell’s Santa Fe studio and gallery began as a place to work on por-traits and tabletop shoots. “People kept asking me to show them what I was doing,” Russell says, and those frequent inquiries and private view-ings eventually prompted his first show, Beyond Transition, in 2008.
Upcoming for Russell in 2015 is an exhibit of photographs taken during a three-month driving tour through South Africa as well as a springtime trip to Washington, D.C., where he’ll photograph the National Cherry Blossom Festival. “I think I still have something to say as a photographer,” Russell notes. “I’m trying to devote my time and energy to that.”

Dennis Larkins Dennis Larkins, who’s represented locally by the Cruz Gallery on Canyon Road and recently held a one-man show at the Sacred Gallery in New York City, has worked in the arts and entertainment industries for more than 40 years. Larkins was part of the Santa Fe art scene from 1967 until the late-’70s, when he moved to California and painted sets for the San Francisco Opera and concert promoter Bill Graham’s Day on the Green music festival. Larkins also designed sets for theme parks, including Disney and Universal Studios, but he’s best known for his posters and album covers for bands such as the Grateful Dead. Currently Larkins, who moved back to Santa Fe permanently seven years ago, is working with a local filmmaker on the storyboard for a new independent movie.—Cristina Olds dennislarkins.com
“My paintings are collages that tell stories with an open-ended narrative that allows the viewer to complete the story,” Larkins says.
Larkins’s mixed-media work combines sculptural
three-dimensional relief and acrylic painting.
The piece Larkins is working on here is part of a series of posters commissioned by the Bay Area band Moonalice. “This project is a direct evolution from my ‘70s career,” Larkins says.

ALTHOUGH GEORGIA O’KEEFFE is famous for the art she created, she was also fre-quently the subject of the art produced by others. “O’Keeffe had this compelling power for people,” says the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum’s director of curatorial affairs, Cody Hartley. “Add to that her iconographic artwork and her art-world celebrity status, and generations of photographers came out to New Mexico to portray her.”
A number of those portrayals are featured in New Photography Acquisitions, a show at the O’Keeffe museum that comprises approximately 30 images of the artist during various times and in various places. The works in the show were selected from several hundred photographs the

a new exhibit feature s rare photographs of the iconic 20th-centur y ar t i st
museum recently acquired, most of which have never been seen by the public, despite having been chosen by O’Keeffe herself for a retro-spective at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City (which was never being produced).
“The exhibit is a mix of fine-art portraits by professional pho-tographers with a lot of thought given to how [O’Keeffe is] posed and more unguarded snapshots by friends,” Hartley says. O’Keeffe’s husband, photographer Alfred Stieglitz, took many of the images in the collection; more than 300 of them are titled simply Georgia O’Keeffe, including two of his wife driving a convertible full of friends. Ansel Adams captured a black-clad O’Keeffe dragging bones back to her house; Philippe Halsman posed O’Keeffe in a wide-brimmed hat in front of her home at Ghost Ranch; and Todd Webb captured the reclusive artist leaving church in Abiquiú, handbag on her arm. Two more intimate photos by an unidentified artist show O’Keeffe getting a haircut on a porch while holding a kitten.
“It’s hard not to want to know more about her as a person,” adds Hartley, noting that the collection sheds new light on O’Keeffe’s lifestyle—for example, the images provide details from the interiors of and landscaping around her New Mexico properties. “Everything she did with care and thought, from her art to how she decorated her kitchen,” Hartley says. “Some of that biography is included in these photographs.”

Students, alumni, faculty, and guest art-ists—including Gage Peer, Lara Nickel, Edie Tsong, Luke Dorman, Caley Dennis, and Chase Stafford—have visually investigated their personal histories to create work that challenges themselves and the viewer.
Among the show’s largest works are Lara Nickel’s life-size horses, which are displayed perpendicular to a wall, at ground level. “As a result, the subject of the painting is pushed forward into the room, making the room itself the setting of the painting and mak-ing the painted image of the subject appear as if it is actually in the room with the viewer,” Nickel says. “This makes the painting object-like.”—Whitney Spivey

spring awakening
SURE, YOU CAN still use your lift ticket from any New Mexico ski resort to get 20 percent off springs entry or a room at Ojo Caliente, but the peak of the snowy season is behind us. That’s why Ojo is also offering a Spring Awakening package that’s sure to revitalize you just in time for the warmer weather. “During winter, we tend to move a bit slowly because it’s colder and our muscles stiffen up,” says publicist Kathleen Langlois. “Spring Awakening provides the opportunity to warm up, rejuvenate, and check in with yourself.”
For only $429, you and a guest can stay at the resort with seemingly unlimited opportunities to spoil yourselves. With access to all mineral pools, including the Kiva Pool (which is off-limits to day guests), and 50 minutes in a private outdoor pool, you’re sure to leave Ojo feeling more relaxed than when you arrived. Take a break from soaking with yoga classes or 50-minute custom massages (both included in the package). For an additional $39, spa treatments can be upgraded to include reflexology therapy, hot oil hair therapy, or 30 more minutes on the massage table.
Before you head home, grab a drink at the Wine Bar & Lounge, which offers a selection of local brews, and enjoy dinner at the Artesian Restaurant, where Executive Chef Paul Novak features produce from Ojo’s garden on his spring menu. “Guests can expect to see delicious greens, veggies, and fruits that are grown right outside the door incorporated into the restaurant’s dishes,” Langlois says. “Chef Novak is working closely with garden and farm managers on-site to develop farm-to-table items.”

For more than 40 years, Georgia-born musician Robert Cray has been fine-tuning his blues-rock sound. Those who saw Cray and his band at The Lensic on March 3 (in a performance presented by Heath Concerts) might say he’s settled into near perfection at age 61. The singer/songwriter/guitarist—who in April will play in Germany, the Netherlands, and Florida—is touring widely to promote his 2014 album In My Soul. Cray’s Santa Fe set list included originals such as “Fine Yesterday” and covers like Otis Redding’s “Nobody’s Fault but Mine.” Between 1986 and 1999, Cray won five Grammy Awards for contemporary and traditional blues albums and best rock instrumental performance. In 2011, he was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame.—Cristina Olds
