2012 | Best Multimedia Show

For Bradley Borthwick: Not All Borthwicks Were Noblemen, artist Bradley Borthwick constructed an elaborate installation, staged a performance with deadly weapons, and acted nude in a film with an alternately pounding and haunting soundtrack meant to document a ritual he'd created. As it turned out, many of Borthwick's Scottish ancestors, all noblemen, had been slaughtered by the English using longbows, so as a kind of revenge, the artist has taken up the longbow himself.

2010 | Best Abstract Show by a Denver Artist

In Big Lots, a powerful -- and beautiful -- show, Denver artist Wendi Harford presented a range of stylistic approaches, with works anchored by everything from graffiti-like looping lines to rigid stripes. In fact, the only unifying factor was the size of the pieces, since Harford favored monumental over intimate; her taste in color was notable, too.

Every picture tells a story, Rod Stewart once said. And he might have been paraphrasing an ancient Chinese proverb, but that's not the point. The point is, every person who views a work of art will un... More »
Monique Crine's Tony James show is a handsome exhibit of Western characters

By Michael Paglia | Thu, January 12, 2012

Denver artist Monique Crine is known as much for her photos as she is for her remarkably accomplished photo-realist paintings. She doesn't feel, as might be assumed, that her work is based solely in photography, however. It also comes out of the m... More »

1st stop on the RiNo District's First Friday art tour. Several types of art in one place. Different feel than Santa Fe, more hands-on.
