Gallery
Shidoni Bronze Gallery and Sculpture Gardens
Located at the entrance to the 14,000 square foot complex in
what was the original foundry office. The Gallery officially
opened in 1975, a year which also marked the First Annual
Outdoor Sculpture Show. It is the oldest galley in the Santa Fe
area under the same ownership. With its large wooden beam
construction and brick floors, visitors are invited to browse
among the largest selection of contemporary sculpture to be
found in the Southwest. The variety of styles is unequaled,
encompassing abstract, non-objective, realism, functional, kinetic,
found object and fountains. Its warm and friendly atmosphere
encourages guests to relax, ask questions and enjoy the beautiful
surroundings. Works in bronze, stainless steel, copper, iron, and
mixed media representing over 100 local and nationally known
artists, are available for purchase and priced for every budget. In
addition, original designs in sculpture, tools, clay, wax, armatures
and art books are available for sale.
A beautiful enclosed patio area and covered portal are adjacent
to the gallery and offer the viewer the extraordinary experience
of seeing works of art bathed in the famous light of northern
New Mexico. Sounds of bubbling fountains and the gentle
breezes of cool mountain air delight the senses. We cordially
invite you come and see for yourself the truly unique and special
place that is Shidoni Gallery.
Shidoni Arts Gallery
Shidoni Arts is an incomparable indoor and outdoor gallery
devoted primarily to fine American crafts.
SHIDONI ARTS is a gallery of textures and colors: wood, metal,
clay, glass, stone, paint, canvas, paper, resin and fiber. These
and other materials are carved, turned, bent, painted, fired,
hammered, thrown or waxed into wonderful objects that
challenge the eye and dazzle the imagination. The mix is rich,
eclectic, joyful and profound.
Visiting our spacious premises is a sensory experience: a
blacksmiths gate, or a woodworkers cabinet interacts with an
exquisite blown glass vase, or a photographers digital print. Set
amidst apple orchards and towering cottonwoods, guests are
invited to take a stroll through the sculpture garden where one
can truly appreciate the magic of Northern New Mexico. Shidoni
Arts is a unique environment equally suited to the seasoned or the
novice collector.
We look forward to meeting with you on your next visit to Santa
Fe.
