The Poetics of Place:
A Workshop and Retreat for
Artists and Writers ![]() April 18 - April 24, 2015 With Master Teachers:
Artist Rebecca Crowell & Poet Cecilia Woloch
~~~~~ At the Historic Mabel Dodge Luhan House ___________________________________________
The stage for the six days will be set by artist Rebecca Crowell and poet Cecilia Woloch, who will give presentations on the history of artists and writers in Taos. Time will be devoted to exploring the town, with sketchbooks, notebooks, cameras, etc...- a time for the students to wander alone or in a small group. ![]() Cecilia and Rebecca are both travelers who respond to environs outside their normal milieus to find other impressions that feed their creative work. Each has a personal connection with “the poetics of place” as significant route to tapping into source material for reflection, journaling, sketching, notations which channel into the work of the artist or writer. Read the dialogue between Cecilia and Rebecca as they put together ideas for this Retreat with Workshops. Lodging is at the Historic Mabel Dodge Luhan House & adjacent Juniper House, where participants will sleep in rooms that were once occupied by art luminaries such as D.H. Lawrence, Aldous Huxley, Georgia O'Keefe, John Marin Martha Graham, and Ansel Adams. Your stay includes breakfast and lunch each day in the "Big House" dining room, a Saturday night wine reception followed by dinner in the "Big House" dining room and Tuesday night dinner in the "Big House" dining room. (other evenings are open for exploring local cuisine).
