September in Denver means that the 2012-2013 art season is fully under way, and there is a lot to recommend, including a pair of solos featuring paintings by two local abstract artists and a group show, also featuring abstracts, with most of the... More »
The fall art season is fully under way, and in this week's review, Michael Paglia visits Rule Gallery, Edge Gallery and Space Gallery. Two of these galleries are offering solo shows by local abstract ... More »
Kevin Curry: Between Chaos and Order is a smart-looking solo at Rule Gallery that's dominated by conceptual abstractions which the artist, Kevin Curry, made from reclaimed materials. Curry moved to Colorado in 2009 and has since made something... More »
