A Journal for Classic Western Art
FALL 2010
GREETINGS
Twenty-three years! It's hard for us to imagine we've been here that long, but at the same time it's an exhilarating feeling. Thirty-three years ago we made our way  to Santa Fe and in 1987 opened our gallery on Canyon Road. Over the years, we've had a terrific time - we've made many friends, learned a great deal, and experienced all the changes that come with each new season.

Remember the old phrase: "Change is good"? Yes, change can be good, but our news is we're not changing, we're not closing our doors. We've simply decided to adapt to the times, adapt to the way in which people have become comfortable getting their information - on the internet and through e-mail. We hope you enjoy our e-news journal. We look forward to your comments, but most importantly, we look forward to seeing you  in the gallery on your next visit to Santa Fe.

The creation of our e-news journal is one way for us to keep in touch with you: our clients, colleagues, and friends. With each issue, we hope to keep you up to date about what we are doing in the gallery and informed about what is going on in the art world - in Santa Fe and nationwide - in which we are lucky enough to be active. So whether you are in Santa Fe or elsewhere around the globe, we will be able to offer you our news as well as broader information on current exhibits and books in the field of classic, historical art of the American West.

WHAT WE'VE BEEN DOING

From Mark and Richard:

Having survived another hectic summer in Santa Fe, once the fall arrived we decided to take a couple of trips to see some exhibits out of town.


In October we went to Denver to have a look at two exceptional exhibitions, one public and one private. The first was a show that featured the work of 19th century artist Charles Deas at the Denver Art Museum and the second was a private tour of the Anschutz Collection. Wow.

The show at the Denver Art Museum was "Charles Deas & 1840s America," which closed November 28th. We were lucky enough to be expertly accompanied (after-hours) by the curator of Western art, Thomas Smith. Deas painted scenes that focused on the intersection of life in the early West, of the new frontier and . . .  To continue, click here.
 NEW ACQUISITIONS      

Remington
Frederic Remington: "El Vaquero" c. 1889

          _______________________________________________________________________


Kloss Wood Vendor
Gene Kloss: "Mexican Wood Vendor"

This etching and drypoint by Gene Kloss is one of a number of heretofore unseen prints. It is not pictured in the recently-released catalogue raisonne by Gene Sanchez, "An American Printmaker." To the best of our knowledge, this is the fist time this print has surfaced. It is possible that few impressions were made from an already small edition size of 15 from 1932. The charm and delicacy of this image are yet another testament to the genius of her print making skills. --Jeff Thurston

Alfred Jacob Miller: Romancing the West

On view through January 9, 2011

This exhibition will travel to the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

 

Alfred Jacob Miller (1810-1874) was a Baltimore artist who opened a studio in New Orleans. In 1837 he accompanied a fur trade expedition to the Rocky Mountains. After six months in the West, Miller's experiences supplied him with the raw material that he would continue to utilize for the remainder of his career. This exhibit features 30 works on paper that help illuminate the artist's working method that began with these field sketches and led to the finished paintings completed in the studio.
