Land So Remote Religious Art of New Mexico 1780-1907

"A LAND SO REMOTE gives a fascinating account of the history and culture of Hispanic New Mexico. It also highlights the perennial conflict between the authority of organized religion and the unruly energies of spiritual need....A LAND SO REMOTE offers hundreds of images whose emotional power seems intensified by the simplicity and directness of their manufacture. Or perhaps it is true, as the people believed, that the santos were not inert objects but the focal points of sacred relationships."Frank, Larry is the author of 'Land So Remote Religious Art of New Mexico 1780-1907', published 2001 under ISBN 9781878610744 and ISBN 1878610740.
