Library Art Exhibition Space - Featured Artists

Coming in March: 

​​​

James Michael Chandler will be the library’s featured 2D artist. Chandler’s work has been widely exhibited, including in New York City, Paris, Boston, San Francisco, and Baltimore.  His paintings reflect his long and successful career in woodwork—a dialogue with nature and natural resources. Chandler says while his art-making process shifts and cycles, it is always linked to the surrounding landscape, his “ever present source of inspiration.” Since moving to Santa Fe in 2018 from New York City, Chandler’s art language has changed and the landscapes of the southwest inform his VGPL exhibit.

The VGPL exhibits are a partnership between VGPL and community artists, and 20% of sales benefits VGPL.
