This Is Happening! wraps up a magical trip to Santa Fe with a visit to the studio of prodigiously talented painter Darren Vigil Gray. Darren takes Nathan, Eric and special guest co-host Georgie Leahy I’m a tour of his workspace as he discusses his evolution as an artist. Darren grew up on the Jicarilla Apache ReservatIon in northern New Mexico, studied art and honed a style informed by abstract expressionism and the diverse dreamscape of his own imagination. Gray’s dramatic, evocative canvasses have earned him a reputation as “the Golden Boy of the third generation of Native American painters.”
Gray’s work has been extensively shown in museums and galleries and is sought by collectors.
Darren is also an accomplished musician and tells us about first meeting an idol turned friend Robbie Robertson of The Band. Darren is as charming and kind as he is talented. Enjoy!
