E Pluribus Unum: Albuquerque contains over 600 portraits taken in
the the Axle Contemporary mobile gallery on the streets of downtown
Albuquerque, New Mexico from January 6-12, 2014. There are also
numerous shots of the portrait- covered vehicle on the streets of
the city, as well as writings by Albuquerqueans on what "E Pluribus
Unum" means to them. The cover is an image created by blending
equal portions of all of the portraits.
This book documents Axle Contemporary's 2013-2014 project where
community-sourced miniature porcelain sculptures were baked into
loaves of specialty breads by local bakers in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Breads sold were accompanied by individualized crowns with
community-sourced writings about bread: Poems, essays, and
aphorisms. Portions of the project, inspired by the tradition of
Kings Cake, were exhibited at Axle Contemporary's mobile gallery
and at SITE Santa Fe. The book includes photographs of 269
sculptures and 57 pieces of writing about bread.
Axle Contemporary has assembled an exhibition which includes many
of the most compelling photographers working now in New Mexico. The
participants include photographers known for diverse genres:
Landscape, portraiture, architectural, commercial, fashion,
environmental, conceptual, journalism, abstract, and wedding
photography. We've invited these artists to exhibit works of
self-portraiture. Process ranges from 8x10 view cameras to
smartphone photos, from split-toned waxed callotype to digitally
manipulated inkjet prints, collage, and monoprinting. For many of
the artists, this exhibition has provided an opportunity for
experimentation and reflection, outside of the artist's established
oeuvre. The result is a rich portrait of a community of
artists-photographers working in New Mexico at this time, by the
photographers themselves. Photographers are: V. Amore, Henry
Aragoncillo, Laurie Archer, Phillip Augustin, Brad Bealmear,
Jonathan Blaustein, Gay Block, Iscah Hunsden Carey, Matthew

Axle Contemporary, Santa Fe, New Mexico.
In March, 2012, Axle Contemporary produced a 10-day project in
Santa Fe, New Mexico. We rigged our mobile gallery as a portrait
studio, and photographed all who stopped by in 11 locations around
the city over the course of 10 days. Photos were distributed free
on-site, pasted to the side of the mobile gallery, and projected in
an exhibition at SITE Santa Fe. All the photos were composited at
the end of the project, creating one image that represents all 566
participants. All the photos as well as essays about the project
are collected here in this book.
