Additional Art Blogs

I'd like to take a moment to recommend the art blog of Theresa Anderson - who is a local Denver creative. She covers Denver area exhibitions -like the much talked about Adrian Ghenie show at the MCA Denver, as well as her own works and collaborations. On top of all that - she's a real positive and enthusiastic supporter of the art scene in Denver as a whole.  Be sure to check out her site and works.

Speaking of the Adrian Ghenie show - if you haven't seen it yet it is a must-see. Nearly every painter I've run into in the last few weeks has talked about it - some even saying they've seen the show upwards of three or more times. I posted a Ghenie painting way back in 2007 on this blog - and it is a pleasure to finally see the work in person. Photos online don't do the scraped, flung, and dripped surfaces any justice.

I've been watching the incredible "Planet Earth" series on the Discovery Channel tonight, and these works were an apt posting after watching all of the wonders of the sea.
