Since 1962 the University of New Mexico Art Museum has hosted several exhibitions and collections meant to teach to the University’s faculty and students. In addition to its longstanding focus on photography, the museum also focuses on the upcoming new media of art and welcomes a wide range of collections.
Querencia “comes from the word ‘querer’ — to love. It means love of place and people. Querencia can refer to your place of refuge, your home or your homeland,” artistic directors Marisol Encinas and Amanda Hamp wrote in the program. On Thursday, Feb. 29, dancers gathered at Rodey Theater at the University of New Mexico to put on their yearly Querencia performance, which was gorgeously brought together through the contemporary dance and flamenco departments.
