Our first exhibition of 2023, Artists as Knowledge Carriers, which features the work of New Mexico artists who are mentors of a new generation of artists. As art professors in higher education u2013 including New Mexico State University (NMSU), the University of New Mexico (UNM), Central New Mexico Community College (CNM), the Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA), and Santa Fe Community College (SFCC) u2013 these artists are guiding emerging artists into the future. Their role is essential in cultivating critical and informed intellects in the realms of contemporary art and global culture. This exhibition looks at the artistic production of the mentors themselves, whose practices reveal their own unique visions, rigor, and dedication to their craft, including photography, sculpture, painting, film, and textile art. Artists include: Jamison Chu0101s Banks (Seneca-Cayuga), Stefan Jennings Batista, Craig Cully in collaboration with Kelly Leslie, Marcella (Kwe) Ernest (Ojibwe), Welly Fletcher, Motoko Furuhashi, Mayumi Nishida, Jazmin Novak (Dinu00e9), Daisy Quezada Ureu00f1a, Jim Rivera (Yoeme/Pascua Yaqui), Carissa Samaniego, Will Wilson (Dinu00e9), and Stephanie J. Woods. Read more about the exhibition here.
