About the book project:
2027 will mark TAAC’s 5th anniversary! And in celebration of this monumental milestone, we are preparing to self-publish a special-edition anniversary book, reflecting all of you and the energy and vibrance of our collective over our first five years. This book will be released in conjunction with a special anniversary exhibition that will run from May-September of 2027 (exhibition details will be forthcoming).

Our book will be self-published as an original artwork and an expression of our commitment to artist voices, inclusivity and to telling the story of abstract art in Northern New Mexico.

Scope of Book: TAAC is obtaining our own publishing imprint for this and future art publications. We intend the book to include a collection of the following:

TAAC Artist Artwork
Essays, poetry/poetics regarding artwork; in response to/accompanying artwork
Essays, poetry/poetics about art practice and artist collective
Essays, poetry/poetics about New Mexico, the Southwest
