“Traveling overseas for the first time and experiencing
a different culture and different culture of dance has
continued to enrich my life personally and as an artist.”
—lisa Nevada, MFA candidate in dance
T r AV E l M Ay N O T C H A N g E y O U r l I F E
but it can definitelty change your perspectives.
Over the last three months as I have been getting to know
the faculty and the amazing opportunities they offer our
students, I picked up on a theme that I decided to make
the hallmark motif of my first year as dean of the College of
Fine Arts: “CFA and the World.” It seems every week I learn
of someone like leslie Umphrey, Falko Steinbach, William
liotta, Donna Jewell or Patricia repar who not only teach
students about music, dance or art abroad but actually
take them to places like Venice, Frankfurt, Beijing, Vienna
or Johannesburg to experience and perform it. Another
thing I have learned in a very short time here is that most
New Mexicans do not leave home, which makes these
opportunities even more important and transformative.
Students can also enter the world of other places and
cultures by using resources right here on campus. For
example, music faculty José-luis Hurtado is a native of
Mexico, hails from Harvard and is currently teaching the
History of latin American Music. The Tamarind Institute
hosted artists from Brazil this summer. This September we
hosted the annual International Symposium on Electronic
Art. The international festival brought hundreds of artists,
critics and digital art lovers from more than 30 countries
to Albuquerque via the appropriate theme of the “Machine
Wilderness.” Next year it will be in Sydney, Australia.
Faculty member Kathy Cyman is the only person in the U.S. apprenticed
in Arita porcelain under Japan’s expert Sensei Manji Inoue. Manji
often hosts our students in Japan, but, of course, Kathy brings his art
to Albuquerque. The arts, passion and talent have always transcended
language while being at the core of any great society. Kathy beautifully
encapsulated the true meaning of artistic cultural exchange: “From sensei’s
hand to our hearts in New Mexico.” These experiences of international
exchange not only create better pictures uploaded on Facebook and
expand finicky palates, they help our graduates get jobs. Of surveyed
employers, more than 90 percent agreed that candidates with international
study experience are likely to possess these key skills desirable in the
workplace: cross-cultural communication skills, independence, cultural
awareness, maturity and flexibility. It is my hope to dramatically increase
the opportunities that our
students have to leave
Albuquerque and engage their
education in far off places.

scholarship spotlight
By Erin Hagenow
EMMANUEl OrTEgA is a student of the world. He holds dual citizenship with the United States and
Mexico and is fluent in English and Spanish. In addition to studying art history in the U.S., he has completed
an internship in Venice, Italy, and traveled to Mexico to research his dissertation.
Emmanuel is the recipient of the José C. Teran, aka “Naret,” Scholarship. The scholarship was established
by the Consul of Mexico in Albuquerque to honor Naret, a Mexican artist. Emmanuel is grateful to receive
a scholarship that honors a fellow Mexican. “The fact that there’s support from my background and culture
means a lot to me,” Emmanuel said.
Emmanuel is currently pursuing his doctorate in art history at UNM’s College of Fine Arts, teaching parttime
at the University of Nevada – las Vegas and traveling to research Mexican and New Mexican colonial art.
With the help of the Naret scholarship, he went to Mexico to study 18th century art that depicts the
martyrdom of Franciscan friars. “I was able to go to collections in Tepoztlán, Zacatecas and Mexico City,”
Emmanuel said. “I met a lot of people who are able to help with the dissertation.” Emmanuel believes these
international connections will enhance his work. He looks forward to receiving his doctorate in fall 2014.

STUDENT AND FACUlTy “AMBASSADOrS” from the Department of
Theatre and Dance took UNM’s production of len Jenkin’s “Port Twilght” to the Asia
Theatre Education Centre International Theatre Festival (ATEC) at the Central Academy
of Drama in Beijing, China. UNM is the only school from the United States selected for
the festival.
ATEC, based in Asia, is dedicated to the international exchange of ideas and practices
in theatre training. UNM is one of only a handful of non-Asian schools regularly invited
to participate. This year included the ATEC seventh International Forum and second
Theatre Festival. UNM participated in the inaugural festival in 2010. The theme of
this year’s festival was “Theatre: globalization and localization.” Of the 37 schools
participating in the festival, UNM was one of only 11 schools invited to perform.
“Port Twilight” is a new unpublished work by Obie award-winning playwright len
Jenkin, who accompanied UNM students and faculty to the festival. Of other festival
participants response to “Port Twilight,” UNM senior Ashley Brown said, “It was
amazing! They were especially excited to see a new work. People commented on the
use of music and stunning visual presentation.” She added, “It was such a great
experience to have the opportunity to bring my work to another country, to share what
I’ve learned at UNM.”
At the festival, students had the opportunity to view productions presented by other
attending schools including those from China, Japan, Korea, India, Mongolia and
Singapore. Many of the schools presented works by Chekhov. “We studied Chekhov
in our theatre classes. It was incredible that although the schools were presenting
these plays in their own languages, this did not present a barrier to the understanding
and enjoyment of their performances. The difference between eastern and western
interpretations was not as great as you might imagine,” Ashley said.
Outside of the festival, the group experienced the history and culture of China
through visits to major monuments and museums. For many students, this was their
first trip abroad. Theatre Associate Professor Bill Walters said, “This type of travel
and direct contact and exchange can transform their vision of the world and expand
their perception of opportunities beyond college.” Ashley and two other students who
attended the festival have enrolled in beginning Chinese language courses at UNM this
fall. “I was inspired,” Ashley said. “I’d like to return to China, and I want to be able to
talk to people and participate in the exchange of our cultures. After graduation I might
even go to China to teach English.”

unm students experience
the arts on the global stage
INTErNATIONAl ExCHANgE has long been key to education in the
arts, and it is becoming ever more important in preparing students to live,
create and compete in the global economy. UNM students learn from the
richness of international artists who come to perform and to teach. Other
programs immerse students in arts experiences around the world.
Dancing with Flamenco Stars
With the Festival Flamenco
Internacional de Albuquerque
celebrating its 25th year, UNM’s
Department of Theatre and Dance
has long offered a global flamenco
experience. That experience is
getting deeper with the addition of
a permanent visiting professorship
allowing students to train each
semester with acclaimed flamenco
artists from Spain.
Dance Professor Eva Encinias Sandoval said the visiting professors give
students uncommon access to flamenco professionals. “It’s giving students
a chance to develop their artistry on a whole other level,” she said. “This is
going to revolutionize the education experience for students at UNM.”
The first visiting professors are Carmen la Talegona this semester and
Concha Jareño in the spring. In addition to teaching advanced flamenco
students, visiting professors set choreographies to be performed by faculty.
Eva said flamenco is “evolving so quickly that it’s really difficult to keep up
with it.” Allowing students to work with the professionals drives that evolution.
She said the international flamenco community is impressed with the local
scene. “They know that Albuquerque is where good flamenco is happening in
the U.S.,” she said.
Musical Encounters
Four years ago,
Professor Falko Steinbach
founded an annual
international music
festival, Internationales
Klavierfestival lindlar,
where he serves as the
artistic director. Each year,
about 10 students from
Falko’s studio participate in this international event with other students from
Europe where “UNM’s reputation is well represented,” Falko said.
During the festival, students attend master courses presented by Falko
and other musicians and have the opportunity to perform for the public
throughout the festival. The students gain important international contacts
and professional experience and absorb a cultural experience in lindlar,
germany. Students stay with host families in an atmosphere of learning and
cultural exchange.
This summer, 1,500 audience members attended concerts and recitals for
the festival. Falko attributes this success to “the charm of the festival, which
integrates the local community and international guests concurrently.”
José-luis Hurtado ruelas, assistant professor of theory and composition, is
also broadening the Department of Music’s global reach.
“One of my main roles is to work as a link between latin American musical
institutions and artists—and UNM,” he said.
José-luis set up a student exchange with Conservatorio de las rosas, his
alma mater, in Morelia, Mexico.
Students from UNM visited the Conservatorio in April, where they
performed and met fellow musicians. “Hopefully it will change their musical
life. The intention was to open a new door for them,” José-luis said. Students
from the Conservatorio are visiting UNM this semester.
José-luis is also organizing a latin American concert and speaker series
continuing through April. The live performances of different styles and
repertoire of 21st century latin American music are open to the public,
but they’re also part of Music and latin American Identity, an advanced
undergraduate and graduate
course that deepens the
academic experience by
complimenting lectures
with performances by and
interactions with guest artists
and specialists from Mexico,
New york and UNM.
José-luis said the aim of the
course and the series is “to
awaken our students’ interest
and curiosity for the music, art
and culture of latin America by
giving them a more complete,
direct and rich experience.” Students enrolled in the course are also part of the
series, performing a concert as their final project.
Healing Arts
By Sari Krosinsky
Arts-In-Medicine II: South Africa Meets the Southwest explores connections
between creative experience and the healing process and how the two come
together in the emerging field of arts-in-medicine. UNM fine arts and University
of Cape Town medical students work together at UCT almost every day in group
assignments. The course taps the strengths of both, and the mixed groups allow
students to gain a broader perspective.
“In this program, which is really bridging arts and science, we’re addressing
each, sort of a right brain left brain interplay,” said Patricia Ann repar, director
of Arts-in-Medicine at UNM and associate professor, Departments of Music and
Internal Medicine.
Students also engage in creative encounters with medical professionals and
patients, including music, art, writing, breathing and movement exercises,
meditation, massage and life review. In these encounters, students learn from
applying their studies in the field.
“A light bulb came on—I was meant to practice medicine so that I could practice
wholeheartedly and humanly as possible. I did not have to detach my self into
polar beings. I would not and could not function that way. An organic relationship
between patient and practitioner, I have found, is indispensable. Why separate
the roles when both are responsible for the ultimate goal?” writes UNM student
Mariah galaz in her final paper for the class.
The creative encounters also benefit the health care professionals and patients
with whom students interact. Arts-in-Medicine “encourages people to see
themselves as whole beings, not just as health care professionals and in so doing,
to view their patients more holistically,” said Shelley Kibel, medical officer, St luke’s
Hospice, Cape Town, South Africa. “Working with the arts is a way of connecting to
our humanity. It helps to access emotions, thoughts and spirituality in a way that
may be deep and profound but is often completely simple and direct. In this way
it can greatly assist communication and healing. Staff and patients reported that
working with the students made them feel relaxed, energized and inspired. I feel
sure that they will take this work further and it will assist them to look more deeply
at their own lives and at the lives of their patients.”
Students learn the gumboot dance, a traditional South African
dance taught in the Zwelethembe community.

faculty focus
By Erin Hagenow
“I DON’T DO VACATIONS,” laughed Pamela Pyle, associate professor of piano and collaborative
piano at UNM’s College of Fine Arts. In the past few years, she has traveled to China, Japan, Taiwan
and Brazil, though not for rest and relaxation. Pamela brings her passion for piano to these countries to
perform with local singers and musicians, teach at the universities and conservatories and, especially,
educate prospective students about UNM’s music programs.
Pamela studied at the New England Conservatory of Music and the Julliard School, where she met
students from around the world. She has studied and worked with extraordinary international musicians,
including Itzhak Perlman of Israel, yefim Bronfman of russia and guillermo Figueroa of Puerto rico.
Pamela is determined to bring music students from outside the U.S. to the Master of Music program
at UNM. She said, “We go on trips to find students who would be interested in this experience because
they won’t know about UNM unless we go.”
This school year, three international students from Brazil, Taiwan and China are doing graduate piano
study with Pamela. They will go on to teach, perform or continue their studies to receive a Doctor of
Musical Arts. Pamela said, “Their presence here is inestimable; I can’t put a value on it. For the students
from the U.S. to be exposed to an international culture is invaluable. I love showing the American culture
to the international students, and I love what they bring to us.”
Collaboration is central to both her teaching and her performance. Pamela said, “As a collaborative
pianist, I have the skill and interest to partner with other people to realize music. That’s what I teach and
what I have an affinity for.” This love of collaboration extends to her teaching philosophy, also. “I think
feeling is the most important part of music. I work with my students to help them know their feelings,
to express them and to communicate them through the tools we develop as pianists.”
Pamela said that she really would like to take a vacation someday soon. The thought of recreation
was quickly forgotten as she told of upcoming trips to Japan and Brazil where she will be touring with
a colleague, teaching classes and meeting more soon-to-be UNM students.
student spotlight
the world comes to the tamarind institute
By Erin Hagenow
SINCE ITS INCEPTION in 1960, the Tamarind Institute has been inextricably
linked to the international art world. Marjorie Devon, director of the Tamarind, said, “The
Tamarind’s mission is to revive the art of lithography . . . originally in this country and now
greatly expanded, globally.” The world comes to the Tamarind in two ways: the international
students who study printmaking at the Tamarind and the artists from every corner of the
globe who come to the Tamarind to work with master printers.
This school year brings a new class of students to the Tamarind. “Our students are
incredibly passionate. They’re here from eight in the morning until midnight every day,”
Marjorie said. “This is the only program of its kind in the world. We work to give students
the technical and interpersonal skills to be able to do both the collaborative work and the
printing.” Of the eight students studying professional printmaking, three are from outside
of the U.S.
David Dominguez Espinal has come to the Tamarind from xalapa, Mexico. He received
his undergraduate degree at the Universidad Veracruzana and majored in art, with an
emphasis on etching. “I love lithography,” David said. “The artist and master printer
Tamarind students stand at the “Tamarind Around the World” map. David
create a work of art together. This is the most important thing.”
Dominguez Espinal (left) points to his hometown of Xalapa, Mexico. Adrian Kellett
David worked with a Tamarind-trained master printer in Mexico who encouraged him points to his hometown of Melbourne, Australia.
to come to the Tamarind for a one-month summer intensive course. David said “it was
fantastic” and decided to return for the year-long program. “I’m here because of the support of Marjorie Devon. She has helped me with everything,
to the smallest detail.” David plans to return to Mexico to open a custom print workshop and collaborate with local artists.
Adrian Kellett is from Melbourne, Australia, where he has taught printmaking for 14 years at the Victorian College of the Arts at the University of Melbourne.
He also built a print shop in his backyard and has been cultivating clients. “I’ve come to Tamarind to acquire the skills in both lithography and the business of
lithography. It’s easy to acquire the skills of an artist; the management side of it is something that is neglected,” Adrian said.
Indeed, one of the Tamarind’s goals is to emphasize the business of printmaking. Marjorie teaches a class in which “we talk about marketing, legal issues,
contracts, grant writing. We give them a practical grounding, so they can make it work.”
Each year, the Tamarind receives grant money to fund special projects. recently, Marjorie traveled to Brazil to establish relationships with black artists.
These artists traveled to the Tamarind to work with African American artists on issues of identity and race. In the future, she hopes to fund “a project that
brings Australian aboriginal artists to Tamarind to work with Native American artists.”
Marjorie said, “I think that the cultural mix is a wonderful exposure for all of us, for our community and the classmates. The diversity adds a richness
to our programs that is really important.”

art/art history
In September, four UNM students
and Kathy Cyman, their instructor in
the Arita porcelain method, went to
New york where they and two former
students attended the Japanese
master of Arita porcelain Manji
Inoue’s talks at the Japan Society. Manji, born in 1945, was appointed
a living National Treasure by the Japanese government in 1995 and
continues to hold that status. Kathy and the students were asked to
stand during his lecture so that he could acknowledge them
as representatives of this living art in the United States.
Kathy and her students presented Manji with a letter from New
Mexico governor Susana Martinez addressing his contributions to the
arts and culture in our state. Kathy said, “And from sensei’s hand to
our hearts in New Mexico this art continues here and let’s remember
the strength of beauty and art to bring people together as in our two
countries.”
art museum
If the UNM Art Museum installed
an exhibition and no one came,
would there be any art? This twist
on the familiar sound of a tree
falling in the forest highlights the
key ingredient in the museum
—you, the visitor. Whether you want to expand your horizons, provide
educational experiences for your students or recharge, it is your
presence in the galleries that brings the artwork to life and transports
you to new worlds. Some would even argue that only then is the art
revealed. “The Transformative Surface,” an exhibition supporting the
city-wide ISEA2012 conference of international artists, invites intrepid
museum visitors into diverse worlds—one inhabited by growing slime
mold, another by a lilliputian scribbler crawling over the pages of a
book and a last by the ephemeral memories of a tree. Such intriguing
exhibitions open the doors to our visitors and invite them in to discover
new worlds. We look forward to seeing you in the galleries.

The Interdisciplinary Film &
Digital Media Program’s Mesa
del Sol facility is enjoying a buzz
of activity, in both research and
instruction. IFDM recently collaborated with Women Studies to present
Coco Fusco’s “Violence and the Body,” and with the Department of
History to present their Digital History Conference “Where History
lives.” Students and faculty ride the new shuttle to Mesa del Sol to
attend (and teach) classes in Photography for Film, Digital Design,
Cultural Documentary, Critical Intermediations, Music Technology,
Animation, rED Camera and Senior Capstone. Partner colleges and
departments host events and meetings at the facility, alongside
IFDM’s own student activities such as Student Showcase, Freshman
Orientation, student networking events and N.M. game Jam. IFDM
at Mesa del Sol is an IFDM student favorite for shooting independent
projects, too. Come and check it out! Shuttles are free and run between
main campus and Mesa del Sol on this schedule ifdm.unm.edu/

cinematic arts
Matthew McDuffie, CFA’s
professor of practice in
screenwriting, enjoyed
a whirlwind spring and
summer, jetting back and
forth to los Angeles, first to
cast his directorial debut,
“The Best of All Possible Photo by Margot Geist
Worlds,” and then to watch
the filming of his script, “look of love,” starring Annette Bening, Ed
Harris and robin Williams. “Worlds,” scheduled to start shooting
in Albuquerque’s South Valley over the winter break, stars Shiloh
Fernandez (soon to play Johnny Tapia in another movie) and Cody
Horn, who turned heads in Steven Soderbergh’s “Magic Mike.” The
film will be produced by Mark g. Mathis, UNM media arts grad,
producer of the Academy Award-winning “Precious.”

classes that occur in the arena of the world
stage. Every summer, for instance, Professors Bradley Ellingboe, Jorge Pérez-gómez, Falko
Steinbach and leslie Umphrey travel to Italy to teach, sing and conduct at festivals while
student instrumentalists and vocalists follow their mentors to these events. Professors
Peter gilbert and Karola Obermueller spend their summers in germany where they
perform their compositions. Faculty members such as richard Hermann have offered
lectures in Finland and Austria. Professors Kevin Vigneau and Kim Fredenburgh have
offered master classes and recitals in Brazil, Mexico, Portugal and Spain.
tamarind
This summer, six artists in bi-national pairs created
lithographs in the Tamarind workshop that explored issues
such as equality, inclusion and identity in Brazil and the
United States. The artists included rosana Paulino, Tiago
gualberto and Sidney Amaral from Brazil and Alison Saar,
Willie Cole and Toyin Odutola from the United States. Work
by all six artists was on display in the Tamarind gallery in
an exhibition titled “Afro: Black Identity in America and
Brazil,” which attracted a record-breaking number of visitors.
Tamarind Institute has a long history of bringing together
diverse groups of people to share in this collaborative form
of printmaking, and more international projects are in the
works. Stay abreast of all projects, upcoming events and
recent publications by visiting tamarind.unm.edu.

an exchange program with the University
of Wales in Carmarthen where they spent
five months of intensive study. For their
final project, “Staging the Action,” they
were given a script with a design problem
to solve. In their case it was a giant
puppet for “Sir gawain and the green Knight.” “It was great. All the experience and theory
we learned at UNM was put into practice,” Amaris said. Since the exchange program
with the University of Wales was established in 2010, eight students from Carmarthen
have attended UNM. The program has been so successful that the possibility of faculty
exchanges is being discussed. Please check theatre.unm.edu for more information on this
