Thank you to everyone who entered this contest. We saw so many great photos! Photography curator Eric Paddock said, "This was a really fun and interesting experience. There was so much energy among the participating artists, and so many great pictures, that it was awfully hard to settle on a final group. We’re grateful for the opportunity to see everything, and encourage everyone who submitted to keep making pictures!"

Contemporary landscape photography from around the world is surveyed in the Denver Art Museum’s summer exhibition New Territory: Landscape Photography Today. The exhibition reflects on the environmental attitudes, perceptions, and values of our time through “observed” and “constructed” landscape imagery.
Yes, you can! The video game Never Alone is part of the Denver Art Museum exhibition Stampede: Animals in Art.
What is Never Alone?
In Never Alone (also known as Kisima Inŋitchuŋa in the Alaska Native Iñupiaq language), players take on the roles of a young Iñupiaq girl and an arctic fox in an atmospheric puzzle platformer that combines traditional stories, settings, and characters that have been handed down over generations by Alaska Native people whose roots and heritage date back millennia.
See Your Pet on the Gallery Wall
For the exhibition Stampede: Animals in Art the Denver Art Museum invites visitors to share photos of your pets on Twitter or Instagram using the hashtag #DAMpets. These photos will appear in the exhibition’s “Beloved” section in a livestream on a framed iPad hung side-by-side with artworks from DAM’s collections. You will find this section on level 3 of the DAM’s Hamilton Building.

Holly Nordeck: What will your demonstration at the DAM be like? What will you be showcasing?
Annabel Reader: I’ll be working on a new costume. It is an imaginary creature, a cross between a deer, a human, and a flower. It will be a two-legged stilt costume. I have been sewing together old sheets, upholstery fabrics, and clothes to make the fabric which I will then make the costume out of.
