Bill Gilbert with Charlie Bettigole: Terrestrial/Celestial Navigations - Orion: Grasslands, July 20, 2013, Ucross, Wyoming, digital print, 2015 Posted: Friday, November 25, 2016 5:00 am Paul Weideman Santa Fe New Mexican UCROSS: A PORTRAIT IN PLACE Lannan Foundation Gallery, 309 Read St., 505-986-8160 Open noon to 5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays, or by appointment Through Dec. 11, the Lannan Foundation hosts an exhibition — or, more specifically, an engaging, multidimensional portrait of a vast western landscape. In their pieces, the seven participating artists, all alumni of the Land Arts of the American West program at the University of New Mexico, respond to time spent roaming over a 20,000-acre cattle and sheep ranch in northeastern Wyoming. Their explorations of the Ucross Ranch and their artmaking were aided by Charlie Bettigole, director of the Ucross High Plains Stewardship Initiative, which is based at the ranch and at Yale University’s School of Forestry & Environmental Studies.
