Celebrating the special exhibition Ken Price: Slow and Steady Wins the Race, Works on Paper 1962-2010

The Harwood Museum of Art proudly presents “The Bobby Shew Quartet Featuring John Proulx Play Chet Baker” presented in collaboration with Victoria Rogers and Cal Haines.

Jazz has figured prominently in Ken Price’s work; a student of jazz great Chet Baker. Chet Baker became a huge star within a very short time when he entered the jazz scene in the early ‘50s. He caught everyone’s ears immediately because of the warmth of his sound and the beautiful, simplistic lyricism in his trumpet soloing as well as his untrained, almost effeminate soft and higher-pitched singing style. The world was still adjusting to the intensity of the recent bebop movement, which in most cases was much more complex melodically and harmonically, more energetic and more challenging for the listener to keep up with. Chet was a bit of a relief. He also played somewhat shyly and without the typically competitive agendas that were common among many of the bebop players. His legacy lives on in the world of jazz. World-renowned trumpet player Bobby Shew chose L.A.-based vocalist/pianist John Proulx to provide the vocal content in bringing the Baker sound to life for Shew’s return performance at the Harwood. Continuing his lifelong achievements as a performer with recent recognition on the scale of the “Bobby Shew Night” with the Czech National Symphony Orchestra in Prague, it is fortunate that Shew enjoys sharing his great talent in his native New Mexico. Proulx, whose CD “Baker’s Dozen” demonstrates the similarity of his style and vocal tone with Chet’s, is the perfect combination with Shew’s warm tone. Together with Seattle bassist Michael Glynn and Santa Fe drummer Cal Haines, the quartet delivers arrangements by Shew and Proulx of favorites from the Baker repertoire.

Tickets can be purchased at The Harwood Museum of Art, $25.00 for General Public and $20.00 for Members of the Museum.

The Harwood Museum of Art invites you to join them for a very special event!

Taos Charter School and Teatro Serpiente are bringing original musical theater to Taos. The group is launching their after-school theater program called Keep it Spinning.

Throughout the six week program students will have the opportunity to create original songs, learn the basics of acting, directing and stagecraft, and most importantly work collaboratively on a creative adventure. The project’s final result is a weekend of performances at The Harwood Museum of Art. Students will experience the satisfaction of performing their work for family and friends at a professional theater in Taos.  Gina Gargone, member of Teatro Serpiente and contributing Artist to Keep it Spinning says "Fostering creativity in our youth and also teaching them the fine art of group collaboration — allowing each voice to be heard while blending unique perspectives into a cohesive whole- for me it’s the entire essence of what it means to effectively communicate."  

Directed by Rich Greywolf, Scott Tennant, and Adam Overley, with musical direction by Laura Bulkin.

Funding for this project was provided for by two grants from the Taos Community Foundations.

The Harwood Museum of Art and Emerging Cinema is proud to present Ernest and Celestine

Directed by Benjamin Renner, Vincent Patar and Stephane Aubier Starring Forest Whitaker, Mackenzie Foy, Lauren Bacall, Paul Giamatti, William H Macy, Jeffrey Wright, Megan Mullally, Nick Offerman English 1 hr 20 mins, rated PG From the producers of “The Triplets of Belville” and “The Secret of Kells”… Deep below snowy, cobblestone streets, tucked away in networks of winding subterranean tunnels, lives a civilization of hardworking mice, terrified of the bears who live above ground. Unlike her fellow mice, Celestine is an artist and a dreamer – and when she nearly ends up as breakfast for ursine troubadour Ernest, the two form an unlikely bond. But it isn’t long before their friendship is put on trial by their respective bear-fearing and mice-eating communities. Fresh from standing ovations at Cannes and Toronto, Ernest & Celestine joyfully leaps across genres and influences to capture the kinetic, limitless possibilities of animated storytelling. Like a gorgeous watercolor painting brought to life, a constantly shifting pastel color palette bursts and drips across the screen, while wonderful storytelling and brilliant comic timing draw up influences as varied as Buster Keaton, Bug Bunny and the outlaw romanticism of Bonnie and Clyde. Bringing it all together is the on-screen chemistry between the two lead characters – a flowing, tender and playful rapport that will put a smile on your face and make your heart grow. Based on the classic Belgian book series by Gabrielle Vincent, Ernest & Celestine won France’s César Award for Best Animated Feature, and has been nominated for Best Animated Feature at the 86th Academy Awards®.
