What’s On Now
Wild NM: A Vivarium Satellite Show
Tia Collection is pleased to announce Wild NM, organized in support of Vivarium: Exploring Intersections of Art, Storytelling, and the Resilience of the Living World at Albuquerque Museum. In Vivarium, named after the Latin term “place of life,” Albuquerque Museum Head Curator Josie Lopez, PhD invites viewers to consider the potency of art in fostering deep connections with the non-human living world. Wild NM highlights how artists express their deeply individual and personal histories, visual lexicons, and interior and psychological lives through our friends in the animal and plant kingdoms. Through self-made fables and retold myths, and depictions of hopes and worlds both rich and devastating, the artists exhibited explore how they navigate their lives, communities, and contemporaries through the lens of animism. Exhibiting artists include George Alexander, Jodhaiya Bai Baiga, Jules de Balincourt, Blake Debassige, Helena Foster, Retha Walden Gambaro, Patrick Dean Hubbell, Tetsumi Kudo, Kiki Smith, and Sophie von Hellermann.
Gallery Opening | Mural Unveiling: Thursday, August 29, 5-7pm
