The 3rd annual SOFA West Show (Sculptural Objects and Fine Art) was in Santa Fe this weekend. In 2009, it was the opening event at the new Santa Fe Convention Center. They were back this weekend and hopefully will return in 2012. The show attracts designers, artists, craftspeople, galleries and buyers from around the world. There were so many great pieces on display, Photo of the Week became Photos of the Week. And this is the proverbial drop in the bucket.
