Next week is going to be one of the most entertaining of the year as Plus Gallery artist Bill Amundson makes his way back to Denver for two great events. First up is his Logan Lecture at the Denver Art Museum on Wednesday evening, November 28th. Following on the heels of Dana Schutz and her terrific lecture should be no problem for Bill, he is one of the most fun and engaging speakers in the world of art. This is the second year that the series has featured a Plus Gallery artist, we could not be more thrilled for the recognition of the talent within our program and the opportunity for the museum and in particular the DAM Contemporaries to put them in such a prestigious community spotlight. Get your tickets online now and join us next Wednesday evening.
Amundson works in the permanent collection of the DAM, left to
right: "Nervous Patriot," "Teen Excavation," and
"Self Portrait with Pricey Mountain Homes"
Also set for next week is a small showcase of recent works by
Bill in our upstairs viewing space to coincide with his 60th birthday
this January. In addition to his recently completed, absolutely
mind-blowing drawing "In the Valley of the Job Creators,"
we'll be presenting an assortment of new self portraits including
"Bad Discovery II," "Sixty And Loving It! (Annotated
Version)," I Saw The Figure Sixty In Gold (Thinkin'
Positive)" as well as the intellectually, artistically profound
"Beaux Arts Nude With Penis Remote." We'll host an
opening reception and fun-filled event next Friday evening, November
30th.....see below for more details.
