February’s showcase on Saturday (Feb. 10) and Sunday (Feb. 11) featured the trifecta of Cooper, the widely-exhibited master of capturing light through cubes Larry Bell, and clockmaster Johnny MacArthur.

In the main center of Cooper’s Garage, Larry Bell exhibited his famous colorful cubes within colorful cubes, gorgeous pieces of geometry, light and incredibly thin films of diverse metallic and non-metallic substances deposited onto glass surfaces. The cubes are objects you can stare at and continually find something

new. His work has appeared far and wide from the Tate Gallery to the Guggenheim and as far as the Museum of Contemporary Art in Caracas, Venezuela.

With Del Maguey as his art project for the past 30 years, Cooper takes you through an interesting mezcal journey. It is not enough to look at his large photographs of gourds and monkey sculptures known as “monos,” you also have to read the accompanying literature written by Cooper. Therein you’ll find the strides which artisanal mezcal has made into the public sphere since

Cooper first encountered this old world spirit.

“There weren’t any formal mezcal bottles for these farmer-made Mezcals, so you’d come away with a water bottle, a plastic water bottle, an empty Pedro Domecq brandy bottle or an empty rum bottle filled with mezcal,” writes Cooper.

One of the photographs in his exhibition is that of a repurposed coke bottle with the necessary importer’s information and a slappedon surgeon general warning label required for alcoholic beverages.

NE W GUARD THE

WOMEN HAVE LONG played an outsized role in the Taos arts scene; women have been the backbone of the arts in our community, especially as dealers and gallerists.

Georgia Gersh follows in a time-honored tradition with magpie, her gallery on Paseo del Pueblo Norte. Born in Taos, the daughter of Bill Gersh, the late poet and painter, Georgia grew up in Lama, surrounded by Bohemian aesthetes and bon vivants. Yet she is connected in a way to those women who came from elsewhere, especially Tally Richards and Rena Rosequist, with their sharp eyes for what makes art great.

Rena Rosequist studied art history at the Woman’s College of University of North Carolina, where a

show including a newlyrecognized artist, Jackson Pollock, profoundly impacted the young artist and proved to be a pivotal moment in the modern art movement. Upon graduation, Rena headed to Black Mountain College in North Carolina, where she met and married Joel Oppenheimer. Following the end of her first marriage in 1960, Rena moved to New Mexico from NYC, where the couple had lived, and within four months she found a home in Taos. For the next 50-odd years, Rena’s Mission Gallery was a bastion of contemporary art in Taos. Tally Richards moved to Taos from NYC in January 1969 and decided to open a gallery of modern art in a sea of Southwestern galleries and artists. Many doubted it could survive,

but Richards proved them wrong, representing a diverse array of artists including Fritz Scholder and Larry Bell. She was noted for her legendary parties and openings, as is becoming the case with Gersh’s magpie openings, where crowds spill out onto the street during high season.

Like both of these aforementioned women, Gersh brings a sophisticated eye and knowledge of the artists she represents and their work to the collectors she has cultivated in just a decade in business. Unlike them, she knows the community intimately, having grown up in it. She might qualify as a member of the new guard, but her connection to the ongoing continuum of art and artists in Taos goes without question.

80
magpie will host an Artist Open House April 5th weekend where you can meet many of the gallery artists.
