Six feet high and ten feet wide, the scene of an Indian encampment stunned observers in Boston and New York not only by its size and merit, but also by its dramatic depiction of what one admirer noted was "a hitherto unknown portion ofAmerican scenery."\ By mid-decade, in the thrall ofManifest Destiny, established landscape artists began leaving New York's Hudson River Valley for the Conti­ nental Divide, recording the rigor's of the prairies, the seeming infinity of the plains and, with ample hyperbole, the majesty of local moun­ tains. In this artistic vision of the post-Civil War frontier, the northern Rockies prevailed, ranging from Pike's Peak in central Colorado to the Wind River Mountains, in present-day Wyoming, the site of Bierstadt's stunning painting. One decade earlier,'art patrons in New York and Washington were collectingnow-forgotten oils of the Rockies in New Mexico Territory. George Douglas Brewerton, a young Yankee artist who had p'assed through the region in 1848, was producing dramatic, keenly-crafted paintings of the Southwest for eastern patrons. In 1854, his two large oils of New Mexico Territory were probably the earliest landscapes of these locales exhibited in the National Academy ofDesign in New York. In 1855, a Brewerton landscape of Taos appeared in the spring Na­ tional Academy show. Several months later, both New York and Bos- Jourdan Houston holds a B.A. from Mount Holyoke College and an M.A: from the University of Vermont.

    THEIR OBJECTS, THEIR STORIES The Nichols Women as Collectors, 1870-1960 June 8—October 13, 2018 Nichols House Museum THEIR OBJECTS, THEIR STORIES The Nichols Women as Collectors, 1870-1960 Laura Cunningham and Rosemary Foy “The importance of our environment and its influence on our lives can hardly be overestimated” wrote Rose Standish Nichols in her January 1911 article for The House Beautiful, “How to Simplify Interior Decoration.” With this exhibition, the Nichols House Museum explores two generations of art collecting at 55 Mount Vernon Street and the treasured objects which tell stories both familiar and unique. Founded on new research, Their Objects, Their Stories celebrates Elizabeth and Rose Nichols for their autonomy and individualism in what they chose to collect, and how their respective collecting practices were in-step with the aspirations of the Gilded Age and the women’s rights movement of the early twentieth century. From a sixteenth-century Flemish tapestry to twentieth-century bronzeworks by sculptor Paul Manship, this exhibition spans nearly 400 years of art across three continents. Letters, account books, and other ephemera shed light on this mother-daughter relationship and their individual careers as Boston’s lesser known tastemakers. _______________________________________________________________________________ THE CULTURE OF COLLECTORSHIP women were rarely afforded roles in managing museums, and their access to institutional power was The widespread changes that took place after limited [3]. Although there were noteworthy exceptions the Civil War ushered in a new era of American like Gardner, women on every level of society tended consumerism in which art collecting represented both to collect for the home and family rather than financial and intellectual wealth.

The Flowers and Bones of Georgia O’Keeffe examines mystical philosophies prevalent during O’Keeffe’s development as an artist and their influence on her. The influence of mysticism is sought through the examination of selected flower and bone paintings by the modernist artist. I have viewed selected works through an ethnobotanical and anthropological lens, seeking depth and meaning in the artist’s work beyond the current interpretations which focus on gender, sexuality, and feminism. Through the prism of lotus, jimson flower, poppy, and sand dollar cactus, I have explored their importance to O’Keeffe, as well as the context of these plants in Eastern, Western, and Native American cultures in which she was interested. Ethnobotanical sources and intercultural seminars at Ghost Ranch, New Mexico, were included in my research. In addition, a selection of tree portraits, representations of mystical writers the artist admired, are included. These portraits include The Lawrence Tree (D.

    THE SECRET SANCTUARY LOS LUCEROS is unforgettable to those who encounter it. Dip into this (relatively) brief history of its diverse dwellers. 38 El Palacio THE NEW MEXICO HISTORIC PROPERTY KNOWN today as Los Luceros has supported consistent human occupation for about 800 years, according to the archaeological record. Today, that occupation metric is miniscule: the ranger’s lodgings and occasional travelers who bunk in the guest house overlooking a rambunctious stretch of the Rio Grande. Visitors, who are welcomed by appointment or during special events, can stroll the apple orchard, enjoy a picnic on the riverbank, or encounter a hushed moment in the quiet, diminutive chapel.

    NM HIGHWAY/ MARKER TITLE TEXT OF MARKER COUNTY NAME MILEMARKER A.M. Curley Trainer Memorial N.M. State Road 78 appeared on maps before 1927, but remained a gravel highway in several sections in Arizona and New Mexico through the 1960s. By Grant NM 78 mm .5 EB Highway 1971, all but one stretch near the border had been paved. Area rancher Curley Traynor was instrumental in having a paved road connect Arizona and New Mexico, and in 1974 it was dedicated as the A.M. Curley Traynor Memorial Highway. Abiquiú Established on the site on an abandoned Indian pueblo, Abiquiú in the mid-18th century became a settlement of Spaniards and genízaros (Hispanicized Rio Arriba US 084 North of Espanola at MM 211.9 Indians). In 1776, explorers Fran Francisco Atanacio Domínguez and Fray Silvestre Vélez de Escalante visited here. In 1830, the settlement became one of the stops on the Spanish Trail which linked Santa Fe with Los Angeles, California. Abó Pass Trail Cutting through the southern edge of the Manzano Mountains, this area has always been an important trade route. The trail linked Abó and the Salinas Torrance US 60 between mm's 189-190 pueblos to the Rio Grande pueblos, fostering trade of beans, cotton, buffalo meat and salt with the Plains Indians. It gave access to El Camino Real, and U.S. 60—originally a coast-to-coast highway—follows the trail’s route through the pass. One of the world’s busiest intermodal transport routes, the Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway, runs through Abo Canyon, just north of Abó Pass.

  • Native Language Preservation
    Native Languages Archives Repository Project Reference Guide REFERENCE GUIDE SUMMARY To share with future generations, this Reference Guide was developed in support of the Native American Languages Act of 1992 to assure the survival and continuing vitality of Native languages. This Reference Guide – Native Language Preservation, Establishing Archives and Repositories - was produced with funding provided by the Administration for Native Americans (ANA) through an Interagency Agreement with the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI). Native heritage languages are indeed endangered and immediate action is needed to save them. Language experts estimate that ninety percent of the 175 Native American languages spoken today are at risk and could disappear over the next two decades. This Reference Guide looks at the complex matter of saving languages through an intensely focused lens of language materials preservation and it provides practical ways in which communities, people and entities can marshal forces, combine efforts and apply resources to this emergency need. In conducting this project and preparing the Reference Guide, the first question that needed to be answered was: What is a language repository? A language repository is a collection of language materials that is being preserved in an orderly and accessible manner. The second question was: What is preservation? Preservation is an act to prevent further deterioration of any kind to records or materials. The old lines between archives, libraries, museums and repositories are blurring, if not disappearing, along with strict distinctions between electronic and physical repositories. While types of repositories are discussed in this Reference Guide the focus is on language repositories broadly and on language preservation and archival issues in detail.
