We are proud to announce that three pieces by artist Ruth Borgenicht are featured in 500 Ceramic Sculptures published by Lark Books.
From the book: "Contemporary ceramic sculpture is wildly diverse in its form and approach, and there is little the field seems incapabale of embracing. From freestanding objects to installations, the 500 works featured in this juried collection reflect that remarkable variety. They have been chosen by Glen R. Brown - esteemed art historian, critic, professor - from approximately 7,500 images submitted for consideration."

Our latest review from the Denver Post!


Art galleries seeing new side of LoDo High-end dealers who tried other areas are moving inLower downtown was Denver's unrivaled art district in the early 1990s. But skyrocketing rents and the changing nature of the neighborhood, spurred in part by the arrival of Coors Field, forced many of those spaces to close or move to other parts of the city.

New Artist: Mark Bowles


Check out work by our newest artist, Mark Bowles. His paintings are subjective, simple and filled with light and color, a harmonious balance between the Western landscape and his passion for abstraction. His landscapes are individual statements that have emerged from a rich tradition of California landscape painting. The large scale results in a vast visual picture plane with bold areas of color intermingled with subtle painterly areas. The reward for the viewer is resonating landscapes whose color and expressive brushwork evoke a vibrant sense of place.
