Santa Fe, New Mexico, rated as one of the most creative cities in the world by UNESCO is really a paradise to be in. It’s time to enjoy the real creativity of the city as it’s hosting the three major art festivals this summer.
Art Santa Fe is known as a boutique fair which offers visitors a highly selective overview of the contemporary art market. This year the fair will take place from July 12-15th at EI Museum Cultural de Santa Fe.
ART Santa Fe is a juried fair and the carefully selected collection of contemporary and modern art comes from acknowledged masters to artists of the cutting edge.
You may have the pleasure to witness the fine art of various artists across Europe, Asia and Latin America. You can also purchase some fabulous works of art here. The focus here will be on the contemporary art.
Main Events:
PhotoArts Santa Fe: It’s a photography festival that will be held from July 13-to July 22. July 14 will be a day of special events in Albuquerque, and studio tours in the Santa Fe area will be held on Sunday, July 15th.
International Folk Art Market, July 14-15: The major highlight will be the folk art and countries from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe would be a part of this exclusive show. You’d be amazed to have a glimpse of the folk art of different countries under one roof.
Santa Fe Indian Market from August 18-19: Native American art would be the centre of attraction. Over 100 tribes with around 1200 artists would be on the participating list and you can also purchase an exclusive range of pottery, rugs and jewels.
The glittering set of special events surrounding ART Santa Fe 2007 includes the fair’s Vernissage, an opening gala. It would be really amazing, if I could be a witness to this extremely creative event!
