Summer Malaise and Openings in the Art Scene

The piece lampoons summer lethargy dubbed summer malaise as a virulent form of spring disease and reveals a chaotic review culture where guest editors, abandoned notes, and open galleries collide. A whimsical portrait of artists, critics, and a fickle breeze sweeping away notes in the Rio Pueblo camp.

Tinkling Stein Way and Eclipse in Dawn and Diana

A fragmented prose piece imagines an art gallery scene with Dawn in lace, a maid not in eclipse possibly Diana, a gal for a ride, and a spectrum explode in a thicket. It references a Charlie, poppies and red barns, and a woman married to a man of distinction not Lord Calvert, ending in a lyrical, surreal mood.

Contorted palettes and strange market scenes described

Fragmentary prose depicts a crowded main road display with bright window lights, Mexican curios near earrings by the post office, and a storm of color and movement. The text evokes lingering images of icebergs, meadows, and endless dispersal as a voice questions safety in numbers and laments loss of the speaker, Eleanora Helen Ha Ribak, tangled among roses and thorn trees.

Surreal collage hints at art, music, and memory

A fragmented, stream of consciousness piece blends names, landscapes, and cultural references with sly humor. It wanders through art, birds, nightingales, galleries, and a Taos music scene while noting Santa Fe Opera opening nights and future schedules.

Confessional Gallery Tour Ends In Overwhelming Diary Burden

A writer recounts visiting ten art openings including Harwood and Galeria Escondida, an intense spree that left them with a filing cabinet full of notes and comments and a vague sense of oppression. The piece blends self irony about chance and invention with a dramatic confessional tone.
