Beschreibung:Based on an idea by Alison Brysk. - Originally produced in 1995
This multidisciplinary social history investigates the contributions of New Mexico's diverse cultures to the state's unique architectural heritage. Today adobe is often associated with wealth and the "Santa Fe Style," yet adobe architecture also continues to play a vital role in Native American and Hispanic cultures in New Mexico.

Down to Earth explores the increasing pressures of tourism and development and illustrates the relationship between the environment of New Mexico and the continuity of cultural tradition. - Container
