SITE Members Winter Solstice Celebration

SITE Annual Members Party

Annual Members Party

SITE Members-only sip-and-shop event held before our holiday dance party. Exhibiting artist Erika Wanenmacher, in collaboration with the mobile exhibition space Axle Contemporary, will set up a pop-up shop selling her legendary Ditch Witch products. Wanenmacher’s incense, candles, and other items are limited edition objects related to her exhibition, what Time Travel feels like, sometimes.

Other shopping experiences include a special 4Kinship and SITE SANTA FE store pop-up, where you can find unique gifts. Afterwards, let’s kick off the holiday season by dancing the night away with spectacular local DJs!

The evening features NOKABAH, a Diné DJ who spins everything from classic country riffs to pop beats, always keeping the crowd guessing what’s next; and DJ Garronteed, who started off as a Hip-Hop DJ, but his far-ranging music collection and interests are sure to get any dance floor inspired.

Must be a SITE SANTA FE Member to RSVP

Wright Contemporary: FIGURATION x THREE

Wright Contemporary

July 20-September 1

OPENING RECEPTION:
Saturday July 20, 4 – 6 pm

Wright Contemporary
627 Paseo del Pueblo Sur  
Taos, New Mexico

Interest in figurative art comes and goes down through the decades, but in the case of these three artists, all in their seventies, it never really went away. Bob Richardson favors a straightforward realism, with hints of the Old Masters, and occasional humorous notes, as in his naked self-portrait at work on an oversized canvas or his camera-crazed tourists. Ian Ratowsky, who lives in Mallorca, Spain, operates in a dreamy zone that incorporates magic realism and what he calls a “nonformulary approach to female portraiture.” In her drawings in the Wright Office, Greta Young shows body parts on a collision course with other anatomical detritus, highlighted by broadly brushed areas of color. These bits and pieces of struggling humanity are comic, but they also seem somewhat desperate and doomed.

AI Generated Art: Vol 20 PECHAKUCHA NIGHT

AI generated art
 
VOL. 20 ARTIFICIAL » The definitions of “real” and “not real” are seemingly understood by most of us. Enough so that there are psychological principles built around our innate trigger responses to the artificial. In an age of disinformation, AI generated art, and hyper-processed foods—how do we actually know the difference?
 

Presenters: Cyber Security Expert Michael Davis  |  Single Mom by Choice Abby Feldman  |  Illustrator Noah Fierro  |  Educator Elana Haviv | Founder Duke Klauck  |  Artist Jay Myers  |  All-Rounder Wendy Stein  |  Composer Brooks William

Doors open at 5:30PM. Event begins at 6PM. Light refreshments will be served.

12th SITE Santa Fe International – Cecilia Alemani

 

Cecilia Alemani will curate the 12th SITE SANTA FE International, (formerly known as the SITE SANTA FE Biennial) opening summer 2025 and running through early 2026. Since its creation in 1995, the International has served as a model for international contemporary art exhibitions and inspired countless exhibitions of its kind globally. As the anchor of SITE SANTA FE’s programming, it has served as the foundation for robust year-round programming at the institution, which is in keeping with the artist-centric approach of the SITE SANTA FE International, allowing artists to realize work they wouldn’t be able to create elsewhere.

The 2025 edition will mark the 30th anniversary of the museum as well as the biennial itself. When it was founded in 1995, the SITE Biennial was one of the rare recurring art events, alongside Whitney Biennial and Carnegie International. Over the following years, it hosted several prestigious curators like Francesco Bonami, Robert Storr, Candice Hopkins, and Ruba Katrib.

The appointment of Alemani continues the special historical ties of the International to the Venice Biennale. Alemani will be the fourth curator to organize both the International and Venice Biennale exhibitions. Continue reading “12th SITE Santa Fe International – Cecilia Alemani”
