Amazing offering and that of the adjacent offerings of this seller at 16 Camino Libre and 24 Camino Libre, an incredible opportunity to maintain/create a beautiful compound with all three offerings! It is no surprise Ms. Holt was drawn to the artistic village of Galisteo, as the area is framed by some of the most dramatic land formations in the Santa Fe area and petroglyphs are inscribed into the surface of her land. Holt was an artist who created artworks to open new ways of perceiving the world, and her former home was chosen as carefully as her sites for artworks. From Sun Tunnels (1970-73) in the Great Basin Desert, to Stone Enclosure: Rock Rings (1977-79) in Bellingham, Washington State, and Up and Under (1987-98) in Nokia, Finland, Holt was interested in environments that 'brought the sky to the earth.' 16 Camino Libre is a very special and unique place.
