Join moderator John F. Andrews, New Mexico Humanities Council; Nancy Lewis Owen, School of Advance Research; and Joseph Traugott, New Mexico Museum of Art for what promises to be a lively conversation.
In Part Two of our monthly Centennial Friday series, our guest panel will focus on the role that New Mexico arts played in the transition period 1880's to 1920's as New Mexico sought and gained statehood. Panelist Nancy Owen Lewis is a Research Associate at the School for Advanced Research, an institution that is pivotal to that narrative. Co-author of A Peculiar Alchemy, she traces the history of SAR and especially the impact of Edgar Lee Hewitt on Southwest culture. Joseph Traugott is Curator of 20th Century Art at the New Mexico Museum of Art and has recently given us How the West is One: The Art of New Mexico, and Soul Mates: Cowboy Boots and Art. The conversation will be moderated by John F. Andrews, member of the New Mexico Humanities Council and the Shakespeare Guild, who hosts the popular "Speaking of Shakespeare" series in Manhattan.
