  • Reflexive Regionalism and the Santa Fe Style
    Reflexive Regionalism and the Santa Fe Style Ron Foresta Department of Geography University of Tennessee, Knoxville Abstract:The Santa Fe Style is an assembly of cultural features associated with the city of Santa Fe and its surrounding Upper Rio Grande Valley. The style, often dismissed as a confection for tourists because of its gloss and worldliness, is in fact a manifestation of reflexive regionalism. This overlooked cultural process occurs when worldly outsiders fashion regional traits into responses to the life challenges that they and their extra- regional reference groups face. In this case, outsiders fashioned what they found in early-twentieth-century Santa Fe into responses to challenges that accompanied the rise of American industrial capitalism. Threats to elite hegemony, the destruction of established lifeways, and the need for new perspectives on American society were prominent among the challenges to which the Santa Fe Style responded. Reflexive regionalism is thus the kind of cultural process that Regulation Theory posits but has found difficult to convincingly identify in the real world, i.e., one that adapts individuals and societies to periodic shifts in the logic and practices of capitalism. I examine seven individuals who made signal contributions to the Santa Fe Style. Each reveals a key facet of Santa Fe’s reflexive regionalism. Together they show how this process created the Santa Fe Style and, more generally, how it works as an engine of cultural invention. The key concepts here are reflexive regionalism, the Santa Fe Style, cosmopolitanism, Regulation Theory, the work of the age, and the project of the self.

    Oral history interview with John Gaw Meem, 1964 Dec. 3 Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a tape-recorded interview with John Gaw Meem on December 3, 1964. The interview took place at 785 Camino Del Monte Sol in Sante Fe, NM, and was conducted by Sylvia Loomis as part of the New Deal and the Arts project for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. The reader should bear in mind that he or she is reading a transcript of spoken, rather than written, prose. Interview SYLVIA LOOMIS: This is an interview with Mr. John Gaw Meem, architect, 785 Camino Del Monte Sol, Santa Fe, on December 3, 1964. The interviewer is Mrs. Sylvia Loomis of the Santa Fe office of the Archives of American Art. And one of the subjects to be discussed is Mr. Meem's participation in the Federal Art Projects of the 1930's and '40s. But first Mr. Meem, will you tell us something about your background, where you were born and where you received your education? JOHN GAW MEEM: Well, I was born in South America, in Brazil. My parents were Americans and my father was an Episcopal clergyman in southern Brazil. I was born in 1894. My father came from Virginia and he had gone to the Virginia Military Institute in Lexington, Virginia, for college work. I suppose because his father and grandfather and his great grandfather all went there so when the time came for me to come to the United States in 1915, it was natural that I went to the VMI as the fifth.

Franklin D. Roosevelt initiated the New Deal, a platform of social welfare and public works programs designed to assist struggling Americans and put them back to work.1 Numerous brick-and-mortar construction projects made a lasting impact on the built environment of the United States and especially of New Mexico, a state with inadequate public buildings. The New Deal had an extraordinary effect on New Mexico’s material landscape. The Public Works Administration (PWA) fi nanced 295 major projects throughout the state, including courthouses in Las Cruces, Santa Fe, and Portales.2 During a time of economic decline and unlikely growth, the PWA funded eight buildings on the campus of the University of New Mexico (UNM) alone.3 One building in particular has become a symbol for the state and a cultural and architectural icon of signifi cant proportions.

Staff levels will not increase in the foreseeable future. We have weathered furloughs and must redirect our work to maximize preservation of resources the best we can. It is now time to reassess the way we do business in the state so that we can continue to meet our mission of identifying and protecting New Mexico’s cultural resources, its rich archaeological record, innovative architectural and engineering achievements, cultural landscapes and diverse heritage. This is not to say the HPD has been unable to meet the challenge. In spite of a stalled economy and decreased oil-and-gas exploration, which in the past prompted a considerable amount the archaeological survey work that passes through this office , the federal American Recovery and Reinvestment Act has more than made up the difference. Many of these worthwhile projects, which have already infused approximately $1.5 billion into the state’s economy, are creating jobs.

Colter honored Southwestern traditions through her careful research and attention to detail. She was an architect who was passionate about her work and who designed buildings that were and are aesthetically potent.
