Arte de Descartes XIII
August 24 - September 7, 2013
Stables Gallery
133 Paseo del Pueblo Norte
Taos, NM
I currently have three pieces showing in the 13th annual Arte de Descartes show in Taos, New Mexico. This is my second year in this art show. This year my focus was on metal. I collected rusted metal scraps, wire, nuts, and bolts from the farm we are currently renting in Jaroso, Colorado, and pieced together 3 sculptures out of the discarded metal. I spray painted the pieces gold with a can of left over paint I found in the garage.
The idea behind this juried art show is for artists to create art out of recycled objects, or items that some people might consider trash - destined for the landfill. The Taos News did a great article on the show. Melissa Larson of Wholly Rags in Taos makes the Arte de Descartes an exciting, fun, and successful event every year, and I want to thank her and the judges for the opportunity to be a part of the show again this year.
