"Carolyn Salas: Night Vision" is a site-specific exhibition in the UAM's Contemporary Gallery from September 27, 2024 through March 8, 2025. In Night Vision, Carolyn Salas crafts multidimensional chromatic sculptures that oscillate between geometric abstraction and figuration. Inspired by research on healing therapies and dream analysis, Salas composes forms from a fresh lexicon of symbols and materials, referencing ritual, female strength and resilience, mental health, and art history.
"Carlos Rosales-Silva: Border Destroyer" will be on display in the Mullennix Bridge Gallery from September 27, 2024 through March 8, 2025. El Paso-born, NY-based artist Carlos Rosales-Silva transforms UAM’s Mullennix Bridge Gallery with a site-specific mural critiquing unjust land boundaries and border control. Over a two-day visit in Spring 2024, Rosales-Silva worked with NMSU painting students, prompting them to respond to their local environment. The resulting collaborative works will be integrated into the mural depicting the liberating force of art and education against militarized border enforcement.
"Warhol & Friends" explores the works of Andy Warhol and various contemporary artists from the UAM’s Permanent Collection. Curated by Dr. Jessica Ziegenfuss, this exhibition highlights themes of artistic collaboration and imperfect replication through a wide range of traditional print mediums, including lithographs, photographs, and silkscreen prints. Warhol & Friends will run through July 19, 2025 in the Bunny Conlon Modern & Contemporary Art Gallery.
