Taos Art Galleries
Taos art galleries are clearly at the center of this art colony's intellectual and cultural life, and we not only have direct links to a number of them but give you the overview of the local scene you need to fully appreciate what it's all about. Everyone should know that the original art colony was established by Ernest Blumenschein and Bert Phillips in 1898 when circumstances forced them to stop in Taos and admire the natural beauty of the area. Years later in the 1920's, Mable Dodge Luhan brought the notion of a European salon to town nurturing the local community of artists and attracting talent from around the world. Georgia O'Keeffe, D.H. Lawrence, and Ansel Adams were all included in her circle at one time or another. Today, patrons of the arts must take in the Michael McCormick Gallery, the Navajo Gallery, and the Nichols Taos Fine Art Gallery for a start. Then branching out is recommended to browse each art gallery in Taos, New Mexico.Taos Art Galleries
