Overview
E. A. Mares never crossed paths with the great New Mexico sculptor Patroci o Barela, but the conversations he imagines with this gifted Taos artist (ca. 1900-1964) are uncannily vivid and persuasive. Readers of Mares's play about Padre Mart nez, another historic Taose o, know that Mares was able to channel spirits. The poet and the ghost of the sculptor, conversing like two old men at the Geronimo Lounge, find much in common. For readers unfamiliar with Barela's art, photographer Miguel Gandert and artist Frank McCulloch have contributed illustrations to bring his magnificent expressionist carvings to life.
