JEFF GILKEY

Ultralight pilot Jeff Gilkey investigates Leonardo da Vinci’s desire to fly.

“As a kid watching birds, it’s just this miracle that this animal can flap its wings and fly and go places you can’t go. And I think man’s had a bit of envy of that, that we wish we could see what the bird sees.”

PABLO ORTIZ MONASTERIO

Through photographs long hidden in the Frida Kahlo Museum, curator of Frida Kahlo – Her Photos, Pablo Ortiz Monasterio, shares how these images expand our understanding of her life and art.

“You can read into these photographs to understand what a wonderful human being Frida Kahlo was.”

ARIF KHAN AND ANDREW CONNORS

Two new leaders in Albuquerque’s art world, UNM Art Museum director Arif Khan and Albuquerque Museum director Andrew Connors, share their love for art, culture and history.

“My sensibility has always been that photographs actually lie. They tell stories and it all depends on how you construct the image.” ~Andrew Connors

“It’s the people activating the space, that’s what I feel is important and I think it’s what will keep culture going long after we’re gone.” ~Arif Kahn
