Gracias a una beca del Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), el Denver Art Museum trabajará con cuatro artistas locales para presentar el programa Cuatro [4]: A Series of Artist Interactions durante el próximo año. Los artistas crearán proyectos inspirados en nuestra colección de arte precolombino y arte colonial español. Nos complace darle la bienvenida al primer artista de la serie, Carlos Frésquez, un artista célebre chicano y nativo de Denver.
Nuestra cuentista, Laura Slack, ha relatado historias acerca de las obras de arte de DAM por más de un año durante nuestro programa Cuentos del Arte, el cual se lleva a cabo el primer sábado de cada mes durante CelebrARTE. ¡Este verano, Laura contará sus cuentos en español! Laura es muy graciosa, energética y llena de sorpresas. El mes pasado tuve el placer de charlar con Laura acerca de su carrera como cuentista y su experiencia en DAM. Esto es lo que aprendí:
Leonardo Drew recently gave a talk at the Denver Art Museum as part of the Logan Lecture Series. Known for creating large-scale sculptures and multi-media works on paper that explore his interest in the cyclical nature of creation, decay, and regeneration, Drew has created a unique style and technique. Drew employs a process that is physically and conceptually steeped in memory, history, and the passage of time.
Over the past 20 years, Vancouver, BC, photographer Danny Singer has explored the American and Canadian prairie from Alberta and Saskatchewan south to the plains of Texas, photographing the kinds of towns most travelers overlook in their rush to get from one place to the next.
Minnesota photographer Alec Soth’s pictures bring to light the quirkiness and humanity of people he encounters and the places where they live. From 2012–2014, Soth embarked on a series of state-by-state road trips to make a portrait of present-day America. His journey through each state that he visited was printed in a “dispatch” format that calls to mind a small town newspaper or travel guide.

El equipo de los Programas Culturales Latinos del Denver Art Museum se asoció con su amigo de hace mucho tiempo Jesús Fuentes para producir una serie de videos en español que ofrecen una mirada interna a lo que ocurre diariamente en el museo.
"It takes time for the world to reveal itself to us." - Barbara Bosworth
She can be seen climbing around her taller-than-most-of-us sculptures barefoot and pedaling up Tour de France mountains in France. Artist Gail Folwell is on the move, like the subjects in her work.
Just installed at the Denver Art Museum is her new piece: In the Peloton. The bronze creation depicts cyclists maneuvering within a racing pod and is a bike tube's throw from where the USA Pro Cycling Challenge routes it's Denver stage. Down the hall at the DAM is her sculpture Tête à Tête, on the Reiman Bridge.
It is through monthly partnerships with artists that CelebrARTE really shines. It is exciting to me to be able to scour Denver’s creative community for the next maestro. As it turns out, this month’s artist, Leticia Tanguma, was hidden right under my nose–her other work is as a security guard for the DAM. You are probably familiar with her artwork. She has assisted her father on several projects, including murals at Denver International Airport. I asked her to tell us more about herself, her artwork, and her inspirations.
