Gustave Baumann has long been one of my favorite printmakers. While in Santa Fe early this month I took advantage of a modest exhibition of his work at the New Mexico Museum of Art. It was thrilling to see his plates, prints, and marionettes. Though I was disappointed that it was a small showing (only one room), it is well worth the visit the next time you are in Santa Fe. It will run through September 2010.

Gustave Baumann ha sido uno de mis artistas predilectos por much tiempo. Mientras estuve en Santa Fe este mes tenia la oportunidad de ver una exhibicion pequena de sus obras en el Museo de Arte de Nuevo Mejico. Fue tremendo ver las placas, grabados, y marionetas. Aunque senti frustracion por el tamano de la exhibicion (solo una sala) vale la pena verla la proxima vez que visiten a Santa Fe. Durara hasta el septiembre de 2010.
