OMG! Even if you're not interested in going to an art gallery, if you like gardens - go here!!…read more The garden out back is AMAZING and it presents a cool, relaxing oasis in such an arid climate. There's no place to sit and relax out there (intentional, as I'm sure else no one would want to leave), but it's really worth walking around (it's not huge and doesn't take long to walk around all of it - except for me since I dawdled because it was so lovely). OK, so I'm admittedly not an art gallery person (The Hubs is), however, I did like this gallery. They had a nice variety of different art media (medium?) that I actually found interesting. I'd definitely come here again. The art was very good, but the garden absolutely made my day.

Talked about how he culls pieces from around the globe, finding artists on Instagram for instance. Quite diversified gallery of POP, modern art using many techniques. Loved the 3D selections. Also found the various brown rabbits sitting about on the floor interesting. Owner showed me work by that particular artist, saying, "rabbits are his thing". He was gracious in dashing off to meet friends at The Shed, saying prices are just talking points. He loves to negotiate.

The folks working here were friendly, knowledgeable, and zero pressure. OK, we also most pulled the trigger on a couple pieces, but talked ourselves out of it, mostly having to do with price and the "Where are we going to put it?" question.

Take a few minutes to slow down and just take it in. You'll walk out thinking about it long after you leave.

Greg is an assertive salesman without being pushy and he has a vast knowledge of the artists and the work he represents. 10/10 recommend!

Well I have to say that it may be Korean abstract art, but it screams "art school dropout". Hey look! There's a predominate brown smudge and a squiggly line! Hey look! The background whites look like the linoleum in my grandmother's bathtub! This could be one of the worst exhibits I've ever seen in my entire life. I was told by people in the know to avoid this show because of the "non objective art", but that only peaked my interest, and thank the Canyon Road Gods that NuArt Gallery has FREE PARKING in the back... Smudge smudge... Squiggly line... White or off-white background... Soo 1992 San Francisco chic... Names of each painting that reek of baby words like, "Ogo", "Sim-Sim", and the incredibly inane ""Gago"... I'm surprised that diapers weren't included! The best part of the entire gallery show is the fact that two of the paintings, "Ogo" and "No Sori" are already sold with a collective asking price of over $23,000!!! Holy crap! There's a sucker born every minute! The staff people at NuArt were great. They must be commended for their poker faces when it comes to explaining the contemporary aspect of this show... If I was their boss, I'd give them a raise. Oh yes, and no free WiFi, which dings this show a star in my book. I will say that this show must be seen to be believed. Ouchie!!!

We attended an artist's talk by Moira Garcia, whose fascinating work was featured for the month. We arrived early enough to wander the gallery for a little while, enjoying the eclectic, surprising, and exciting "made by hand" works by local artists. Moira's paintings that focused on the idea of florescence, as influenced by Nahuatl culture and art, were stunning, large-format, unframed works that were mesmerizing on their own. The gallery also featured her lithographs based on Codex hieroglyphs, and included a major work on delicate Mexican paper that was actually two paintings sliced up and then woven together into a third, composite work. The gallery provided pastries and coffee for the healthy-sized crowd who showed up on a Sunday early afternoon, and kept finding more folding chairs to accommodate the stream of interested folks who stopped by for the talk. Highly recommended as a stop on your downtown Santa Fe wanderings.
