Reggiean appreciation by Susan McAllisterThis month, we lost a very special member of ourcommunity. On Friday, November 4, ReggieGammon passed away. He was 84 years old.Reggie had a place at Harwood for thirteenyears; he started out in an upstairs studio, butshortly afterwards moved to studio B on the mainfloor, which is where you would find him mostdays. Reggie’s studio reflected his varied interestsand his great talent. You would find jazz tapes,books, letters, paintings, prints, articles, and threechairs because visitors were always welcome. Itis something that everyone recognized aboutReggie; he always had time to share stories.

When I think about the stories Reggie and Ishared over the eight years that I have known

him, I begin to realize what a very short time thatmust have seemed from his perspective; hisrelationships span years, miles, generations,movements and artistic disciplines. One of myfavorite things about Reggie was how easily hefound humor in the world. And, despite thesorrow I feel at this loss, I have laughed moreremembering him than I thought possible.

I know I speak for all of us here at Harwoodwhen I say that Reggie was incredibly importantto us. He was a great artist, a good friend and avital presence. We offer our condolences to hisfamily and to the friends with whom we sharedthis wonderful man in life and who we will misstogether at his passing.

There will be a memorial service for Reggie atthe Albuquerque Museum on Monday, November28th from 5-8pm. If you would like moreinformation, you are welcome to call us atHarwood at 242-6367.

The Guild Theater will show the short film,Reggie, created in 1972 by Eugene Redden onSunday, December 11th at 1pm. The film runsabout 15 minutes and chronicles the early periodof Reggie’s career. The film was first screened atthe Kalamazoo Film Festival. The event is free.

At Harwood, we offered all theprograms we always bring you: great classes through the ArtSchool, high quality arts education for kids with the Summer ArtCamp and the After-School Art Program, all kinds of poetry stuff,the Word Stream Poetry Series and All as One; we made newawards from the Harwood Emerging Artist Fund and on top of allthat, with help from tireless, superspecial volunteers, we hosted theTransitions Exhibition at 516 Central and brought the NationalPoetry Slam Championships to Albuquerque. 2005 was a yearoverflowing with creative energy.

I decided to paint portraits and self-portraits set in urban areas tosymbolically represent the feelingsand emotions this environmentgenerated in me juxtaposed againstthe manifestations of the injustice, theindif ference, the unavoidableabsence, the longing, the anguish,the searching, the finding, the pain,the suffering, the luck, theuncertainty, the exploitation, and thehunting that by the same socialdecomposition, created, at that time,a permanence and an increasedfeeling of insecurity all due to theselamentable factors. From myreflections on that situation I optedfor a common shared vision, one ofsolidarity.

Icons of BeautyKrystine GrazianoSouth GalleryJanuary 6 – 27Reception: January 20Friday, 5 PM to 8:30 PM(an ArtCrawl event)The pieces in this show are mixedmedia paintings, using powderpigments, gesso, oil paints, linen,papers, graphite and fragments ofpast work. In the 25 years ofreturning to the studio, I’vedeveloped a personal language ofimages and techniques with whichto create. The act of paintingrequires seeing. It’s beingcaptivated. It’s not multitasking. Iobserve and document the beauty.In this work, through painting objectsof nature, I create icons of beauty.

AT THE CIRCUSby Mitch Rayes

the trapeze artist

bounces in the safety net

after just missing his only attempt

at the triple somersault

I think of the Flying Wallendas

never a safety net

the collapsing seven body pyramid

in detroit 1962

half of them dead

or paralyzed for life

the family patriarch

Karl Wallenda

blown off the high wire

by a gust of wind

ten stories

above the streets of

San Juan

he was seventy-three

being on the tightrope is living he used to say

everything else is waiting

I walk a tightrope

made of words

but mostly I wait
