For thousands of years, New Mexico—or more broadly the desert Southwest—has hosted waves of human habitation, each with its own distinctive material culture. Situated on the north-south trade route between Colorado and Mexico and at the western edge of the Great Plains, the area’s diverse topography and population have inspired countless visual responses from petroglyphs to photographs. On view through August 23, “Land of Enchantment” foregrounds Sheldon’s collecting strength of fine and decorative arts with connections to New Mexico and the geographical and cultural allure of the Southwest.
