D'art & Friends

each member of the gallery has invited an artist friend to show in a special exhibition for the holiday season. digital artists, sculptors, ceramists and visual artists have been offered to show along with the members of the gallery in the arts district of santa fe over the holiday season for 2022.

i’ve selected Sherri Mabe (@starlitwaltz on instagram) to show with me. Sherri is an infrared photographer, specializing in black-and-white who often shows the desert and prairie for the beautiful wilderness areas they are.

Sherri has been someone whose work i’ve admired for a number of years, and we recently found ourselves in the same facebook photography group regarding photography. not only do she and i share a passion for the solitude and peacefulness provided by the natural world, we both have a passion for the preservation of it and an acknowledgement to those who have been stewards of these places throughout the years.

in addition to the D’art and Friends show in the main gallery, Simply Small 4 will be showing in Gallery East - an exhibit of small works by all of the member artists. pieces in this exhibit are cash and carry.

below, i’ve listed some of the events going with the show:

i recall a similar show at a different gallery where i was speaking to one of the invited artists. he was beaming with pride at having one of his artistic pieces showing in a gallery. when D’art decided to do this show, i knew i had to select someone who’d never had the experience of having their work in a gallery. i’ve been a fan of Charles’ work for quite some time, and i’m excited and honored to have his work showing in the gallery next to mine.

d'art gallery - 'photography: your vision' juried show

Moustache

Moustache

you can read more about this image by clicking on the image. i won’t bore you with the details of how or why i took this photograph again here.

but i will tell you how incredibly excited i am to have the image selected into this show about the vision of photographers. the image was selected into the show by Maureen Ruddy Burkhart, an accomplished photographer whose work has been exhibited around the world. to say i’m honored that she chose one of my images, and this image in particular is quite an understatement.

but this image does reflect very much my photographic vision of the last year or two. many photograph nature at nature’s peak of color or drama, but that’s not how i feel when i’m in nature. there is a quietness, a peace and a tranquility that i feel in nature, and i in turn attempt to capture that and get the viewer to also feel that calm. this image does just that for me, and i hope it does for you as well.

you can view the 26x26 image and purchase the framed version from D'art gallery at 900 santa fe dr, denver, co for $499. show dates run from april 9, 2021 - may 2, 2021 while their hours are listed on their website at https://dartgallery.org/. the hours may change due to COVID restrictions, so please check before planning a visit to the gallery.

d'art gallery - 'emerge' juried show

The Navajo Social Distancing Quandary

The Navajo Social Distancing Quandary

this butte is located near what used to be Bears Ears National Monument just north of the Navajo Nation - one of the hardest hit locations by covid, per capita. many here can't socially distance as treaty water rights previously guaranteeing water to the Navajo have been reneged, so water delivery is a must in this dry, dusty climate.

the image was selected by Mary Voelz Chandler, a writer on the arts, architecture and preservation. she was the art and architecture writer for the Rocky Mountain News in Denver and co-author of the 2009 book, Colorado Abstract with Michael Pagila - a writer and critic for Westword. not only is it a huge honor to be included in this show, have this piece selected by such an esteemed art critic, but also an honor to tell of the struggles of some of those in this country that we don’t often hear about.

you can view the 24x12 editioned image and purchase the framed version from D'art gallery at 900 santa fe dr, denver, co for $449. show dates run from december 10, 2020 - january10, 2021 while their hours are listed on their website at https://dartgallery.org/. the hours may change due to COVID restrictions, so please check before planning a visit to the gallery. i’m selling four additional prints here (https://www.liftedspiritphotos.com/prints-of-the-month) for december’s print of the month. the cost will be $399 for the print alone, so your best deal will be to purchase through the gallery. Included in the five total prints in this edition will be one artist proof for myself.

all profits from the sale of this print will be donated to the Navajo Nation COVID-19 Response Donation Fund. (https://www.nndoh.org/donate.html)
