SUMMARY:¡Aquí Estamos: The Heart of Arte!
DESCRIPTION:Art Museum hours and prices HERE \n¡Aquí Estamos: The Heart of Arte! celebrates the NHCC Art Museum’s growing permanent collection with a revitalized vibe and a brand new selection of works. This exhibition was a collaborative project as the entire NHCC Visual Arts staff and interns combed through the collection and worked together to decide which pieces should welcome in 2017. This sampling explores the contributions of these artists and how each work can serve as a reminder of the heart that thrives in strong and resilient communities. \nThe collection contains over 2\,500 artworks by Hispanic\, Chicana/o\, and Latina/o\, artists from around the globe most of which have been generously donated to the museum by artists and collectors. It reflects the diversity of Latina/o art and expression in all of its vibrancy\, creativity\, pointed humor and social consciousness. The National Hispanic Cultural Center Art Museum exists to support and engage the work of these artists and share their creations and their stories with the broader community.

SUMMARY:Southwest of Eden:  The Art of Adam and Eve
DESCRIPTION:This exciting exhibit features approximately fifty works of art from the Joyce Kaser Collection. Southwest of Eden: The Art of Adam and Eve examines the various ways in which New Mexican artists and others visually portray these two famous figures as well as the flora and fauna in their surroundings.  For example\, how many apples are featured\, or are they pomegranates? Is the serpent male or female? Is it animal or human\, or half and half? Is Eve always the instigator or is Adam assuming some responsibility? Situated in the NHCC Art Museum’s highly popular community gallery\, Southwest of Eden invites the visitor to take a closer look at the imagery\, symbolism and story of what happened in the garden.

SUMMARY:ALMA: Mosaics From the Soul
DESCRIPTION:The ALMA Summer Institute (formally Mayor’s Art Institute) was created in 1999 to provide paid training and mentorship for artistically talented youth and adults through its apprenticeship model. The apprentices work with Lead Artists to create handmade tile mosaics\, helping with every aspect of making a public artwork. In 8-10 weeks\, they assist with design\, carve tiles from wet clay\, glaze tiles\, fire a kiln\, cement tiles to the wall\, and grout the finished artwork. The designs are conceptualized\, researched\, and drawn collaboratively to create rich\, multi-layered representations of our place\, our culture\, and our history. Through our apprenticeship model\, we help train the next generation of artists to strive towards an arts career/arts entrepreneurial path. This exhibit\, “Mosaics From the Soul” tells ALMA’s story\, shown through drawings\, photographs and narratives. \nLocation: History and Literary Arts Building \nFree and open to the public

SUMMARY:El Perú: Art in the Contemporary Past

SUMMARY:The Neighborhood Project: Las Voces de Barelas Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:The Neighborhood Project: Las Voces de Barelas is a community art initiative by Working Classroom student artists under the instruction of guest teaching artist Adria Malcolm which set out to explore the people of the historic Barelas area through the mediums of environmental portraiture and feature-writing. The project aims to bridge the gap between otherness and commonality through the sharing of the most vital elements of an individual’s story. \nThe project artists learned how to conduct thorough interviews\, explored rapport building with subjects\, and learned the basics of journalistic feature writing and portraiture. Las Voces de Barelas serves as a way for Working Classroom to give back and explore the community that it calls home and present stories of a shared human experience.

Mario soon becomes Neruda’s student\, learning the art of poetry to woo a local barmaid. Inspired by Neruda\, Mario’s poetic voice continues to take wing as he expresses the struggles of his fellow working-class villagers. A firm friendship develops\, and the postman is forever a changed man. The sounds of the Mediterranean come alive in Catán’s stunningly beautiful\, Puccini-esque score – a story of love in its many forms\, set against a backdrop of conflicting political and spiritual ideologies. Based on the novel “Ardiente Paciencia” by Antonio Skármeta and the film by Michael Radford. Sung in Spanish with English supertitles.”

SUMMARY:Film: Neruda
DESCRIPTION:7 pm \nIn post-World War II Chile\, a police prefect pursues Nobel Prize-winning poet Pablo Neruda\, now a fugitive in his own country for joining the Communist Party. In this story of a persecuted artist and his obsessive adversary\, Neruda sees his chance to become a symbol for liberty as well as a literary legend. \nDirected by Pablo Larraín; Spanish with English subtitles; 107 minutes; rated R. \nPresented as part of the Bank of America Free Thursday Film Series. \nFree ticketed event; tickets available one hour before show \n \nIn February 2020\, Opera Southwest and the NHCC will present the New Mexico premiere of Il Postino\, an opera in three acts by Mexican composer Daniel Catán with a Spanish libretto by the composer. The work\, based on the novel Ardiente paciencia by Antonio Skármeta and the film Il Postino by Michael Radford\, adheres loosely to events in the life of Chilean poet Pablo Neruda\, and integrates themes of love and friendship along with political and spiritual conflict. \nLike Il Postino\, Pablo Larraín’s film Neruda is based loosely on events in the life of its subject\, at a time when Chile’s beloved poet has been forced into hiding and is being pursued by his would-be nemesis\, the police inspector Peluchonneau. Larraín describes the film as “Nerudian”—not a biopic\, despite its title\, but rather\, an “invention informed by biography.” \nWe hope that our audiences will enjoy both these explorations of the rich and complex cosmos created by the life and work of this extraordinary artist.
