Time to submit for $10K Harnar Award By Paul Weideman FEB. 14 IS DEADLInE DAy FOR THE 2013 JEFF HARnAR AwARD FOR COnTEMPORARy ARCHITECTURE. Santa Fe businessman Garrett Thornburg, a fan of good architecture, created the award in 2007 to encourage creativity and excellence in design and to honor the memory of Santa Fe architect Jeff Harnar. Architects with New Mexico buildings completed within the last five years may enter the award competition. The 2013 winner receives a $10,000 cash prize. Previous winners of the award include Suby Bowden and John Morrow, Calott + Gifford Architecture/Urban Design, Baker Architecture + Design, Kramer Woodward Architect, and — last year — Antoine Predock Architect in association with Jon Anderson Architecture, for George Pearl Hall, home of the School of Architecture and Planning at the University of New Mexico. The Harnar Award jurors are architects and landscape architects from the Southwest, primarily, as well as a UNM School of Architecture faculty member and graduate

student. Last year’s jury included architects Larry Speck of Austin, Texas, and Marilys Nepomechie of Miami Beach; and landscape architect Christine Ten Eyck, Phoenix and Austin. The 2012 Harnar Lecture, presented on awards night last Feb. 24, was delivered by Marion Weiss and Michael Manfredi, principals of Weiss Manfredi Ar-
chitecture/Landscape/Urbanism, New York. “Since the Thornburg Foundation has been collaborating with the UNM School of Architecture on the Harnar Award, we’ve had an outstanding speaker each year,” said Suzanne Barker Kalangis, executive director of the Thornburg Charitable Foundation. The speaker for the 2013 awards program
had not yet been selected, she said. The world financial crash came not long after the Jeff Harnar Award was established. Since late 2008, business has been slow for many architects who depend on new construction. “It has been a little difficult,” said Roger Schluntz, former longtime dean of the UNM School of Architecture and Planning and professional advisor for the Harnar competition. “We don’t get as many submissions as we did five years ago, but I’ve been surprised and impressed at the entries we do get.” Barker Kalangis added, “We are concerned that what has happened in the financial world has had a substantial impact on architects, which makes the award even more important.” The winner of the 2013 Jeff Harnar Award for Contemporary Architecture will be announced at an evening event, open to the public, at Pearl Hall on March 1.
