Printing the Spirit

Gustave Baumann's Santos

Beschreibung

The story of Baumann's foray into saint making is a little-known aspect of the artist's luminous career. Associated more with color woodcuts of billowing summer clouds and autumn arroyos blooming with chamisa, the artist has been largely unacknowledged in discussions of Spanish Colonial art and the study and appreciation of the santos of New Mexico. Printing the Spirit is a testament to Baumann's unwavering commitment to opening the world's eyes to the quiet grace and enduring importance of the santo tradition.
