a documenting the original Austin music scene

The works were done when the “Austin scene” was evolving in the early ‘70s. In those volatile times, the hippies and rednecks got together and discovered they enjoyed something in common – country music with a hard driving beat.

The Austin beat was labeled “progressive country” by many music journalists.

Among the artists depicted in Richardson’s works are Willie Nelson, Guy Clark, Clifton Chenier, B.W. Stevenson, Joe Cocker and Navasota. There are also sketches of Willie Nelson’s Fourth of July Picnics and of Luckenbach, Texas, a small town (population 2), that Nelson made famous in a song.

The collection will be on display through May 1.

Quote: “There has always been a strong connection between Austin and Taos. There are a lot of recovering Austintacious Outlaws in Taos, people who spent time at places like New Buffalo in Taos and at Armadillo World Headquarters in Austin and traveled back and forth over the years.”

The Rane Gallery

214 Ledoux Street

Saturday October 11

6pm

for an unveiling and readings.

Regional artists and poets have come together on a project: Beginning with Bill Rane's 1981 painting, Aegean Sea Scroll, each artist (poet/visual) was asked to respond, one by one, to the artwork alternating, linked and inspired solely by the preceding unidentified artist and artwork. The art of creating art inspired by another genre is called Ekphrasis. Last year during the Taos Fall Arts Celebrations, Rane Gallery hosted "Reflections on Rane," where 11 poets read their poems inspired by different works by Bill Rane. That collection, The Master's Hand, Reflections on Rane, will be available at the Oct. 11th event. This event pushes the envelope further.

Poems are responded to by visual art, and in turn, another poet answers the painting/sculpture. The process took a year, an artistic "round robin" or "telephone tag."Will a theme emerge? Will a connection between the 24 artists be revealed? Please do come to see the specially created art work, and hear the poems.

The participating artists include: Bill Rane, Veronica Golos, Randall LaGro, Cheryl Loetscher, Dororthy Lampl, Joseph Hutchison, Seamus Berkeley, Ellaraine Lockie, Duaine O'Hagan, Karen Cordova, Homare Ikeda, Kathleen Cain, Carlos Barela, Andrea L. Watson, Nancy Delpero, Scott Wiggerman, David Hinske, Madelyn Garner, Don Ward, Carol Aronoff, Lenny Foster, Linda Arnold, Salvatore Giglio, Dora E. McQuaid.

Symmetry, Order, Perfection and Beauty

Seven Paintings at UNM
August 24th to September 13th , 2008
Public Reception: Thursday, September 11th from 4 to 6 pm

Seven large paintings by Cydney Taylor hang in the UNM-Taos Art Lobby. The paintings are from her first body of work, an eighteen year focus on colour as subject. Each painting represents a different series of work, each using a different visual format to explore ideas about symmetry, order, perfection and beauty. The common function of the formats was to hold colour without visual distractions. Motifs of hue, color saturation and tone are used for visual presence. Taylor’s work embodies timeless painting concerns first seen in the sixties and seventies. The show runs until September 13 from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the UNM-Taos Klauer Campus.

AUTUMN LANDSCAPE WITH INSTRUCTOR: MICHELLE CHRISMAN

PLEIN AIR PAINTING IN THE SATURDAY & SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 13 & 14 ~ ALBUQUERQUE, NM
In this 2 day course, Michelle will teach the basics of outdoor landscape painting, based on the principles of the French Impressionists and what they taught artists about the visual world and how it works: clarifying light source direction, light/dark patterns, defining beautiful shapes & exciting compositions, assigning correct values, color temperature & how it can work for you; how to mix color with a limited palette, visual pathways & focal point, and how to capture the effects of light, atmosphere and mood with the medium of paint. This class will also help the painter who is well-grounded in the academics of Plein Air Painting, but who wants to clarify & bring forth their own voice & bring excitement & drama to their work. All painting mediums and skill levels are welcome. Michelle is a plein air oil painter residing in Taos, NM. She was featured in the June 2008 issue of Southwest Art Magazine in a special article on Plein Air Painting. She also teaches for the Taos Historic Museum Foundation every summer and is represented by 7 galleries throughout New Mexico, Colorado and Arizona.
