Re: Recompose
Cristine Posner at Fourteenfifteen Dates: April 4 - 24, 2026 Open Hours: Sundays, 10am - 1pm Recompose is an installation and performance by Cristine Posner, where she transforms objects from both her artistic practice and daily life into a single, monumental tapestry. Sitting at a loom she designed specifically for this work, she weaves a narrative, physically and metaphorically blending the inconsequential with the sentimental. Through this process, she contemplates what gives objects meaning and what happens to that meaning once the person who ascribed it is no longer present. |

Forgotten Barelas:
Recovered History of a Lost Business District Monica Bencomo at Fourteenfifteen Opening Reception: Friday May 1, 6-9pm Forgotten Barelas is an exhibition inspired by Monica Bencomo’s research project completed in Spring 2024 for the Historic Preservation Program at the University of New Mexico’s School of Architecture and Planning, in which she documented the business district that once existed in the Barelas neighborhood adjacent to the former Santa Fe Railway Shops. Long overshadowed by the prominence of the Santa Fe Railway Shops—the largest employer in New Mexico at its peak—this corridor was a vibrant, multicultural network of small businesses, workforce housing, and railroad-related industry that sustained the daily lives of railroad workers and neighborhood families. The exhibition brings into focus the businesses and built environment that supported both Barelas residents and the railroad economy. |
The story of the business district will be told through a combination of archival photographs, newspaper articles, maps, and business histories paired with contemporary images. Forgotten Barelas invites viewers to reflect on the lasting impacts of industry decline and disinvestment, presenting the corridor as a learning landscape shaped by change over time. The exhibition presents a visual and historical juxtaposition of this corridor adjacent to what is now known as the Rail Yards, revealing what the area was then and what it has become today.

It’s all pipes
Rachel Bordeleau & Taylor Engel at Alpaca Public Installation Viewing: Friday May 1, 5-10pm Opening Reception: Friday May 8, 6-9pm Presentation Series: Saturday May 16, 7-10pm It’s the end. I didn’t want to know. The pipes are calling. I’m not looking. Besides calling, they’re getting dressed, they're making choices, they’re making decisions and it’s based on something. They’re being watched and they don’t know. They’re looking at something and does this fit? The manual is here and they’re behaving. There’s a story inside a story. The illusion of control. The slice of pie I selected, the crumbs on the floor. Believe me as pipes. They only exist if you see them. |

CALL FOR EXHIBITION PROPOSALS
|
As a DIY space, we find ourselves in a unique position: not beholden to capital, granting organizations, institutions, or commercial interests. We answer to no one but ourselves and the community. It’s an old cliche that art’s job is to hold a mirror up to this world, however catastrophic and disheartening. Artists play a critical role in tackling the ugliness and offering alternatives. Now more than ever we want this space to be a platform for art that is socially-focused, concept-driven, and radical.
We want to see: Art that gives voice to the voiceless. Art that confronts current or ongoing political violence and colonialism. Art that addresses environmental crises. Art that challenges the rot of corporate greed and techo-capitalism. Art that envisions alternatives. Art that nurtures social bonds as a radical act. Art that focuses on the collective rather than the individual. Art that’s disruptive. Art that’s playful. Art that doesn’t feign to have all the answers, but asks tough questions. If we are living in unprecedented times, the art of our time should reflect that fact. Seeking proposals for month-long group or solo exhibitions in any medium (2D, 3D, installation, video, performances, events series) that explore any of the themes above. |
Deadline: April 15, 2026

CALL FOR ART: DECLARATIONS OF INCONGRUENCE
Group Exhibition “Declarations of Incongruence,” July 3-31, 2026, guest curated by Aaron Wilder
Submission deadline: May 24, 2026
No submission fee.
OPEN CALL
Fourteenfifteen invites art submissions for our July 2026 exhibition “Declarations of Incongruence” by guest curator Aaron Wilder. At a time of commemorations of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, this exhibition draws attention to the document’s covert normalization of exclusion and exploitation. Despite 250 years of claimed progress, expanded inclusion, and justice for all, the Declaration’s true legacy continues in the erosion and erasure of cultures, identities, rights, and statuses not only at the federal level, but also perpetuated by state, county, and municipal governments. This exhibition seeks artistic declarations of challenging, highlighting, refusing, resilience despite, and thriving and joy despite the perpetuation of incongruence between America’s founding mythology and contemporary, future, and historic realities.
