FIRST TIME EVER?

We are not sure, we may just be dreaming, but the buildup for Jenny Morgan's solo debut with NYC's Driscoll Babcock Galleries, continues.....check out the full-page ad in Artforum's October issue.  We don't know if an artist out of and still engaged in the Denver scene has ever seen this kind of exposure, and though we don't have a copy yet, the same image is on the cover of NY's current Gallery Guide. Morgan's exhibition opens October 17th, we'll be there to cheer Jenny on and will report back with images and details later this month.  If ever there was big news relating to Denver and the visual arts, this is it!


5280 SHARES THE LOVE


The latest issue of the mile-high magazine includes a section on Denver's world-class art scene, with Plus Gallery and featured artist Allie Pohl firmly in the mix.  Pick up a copy today on newstands all over the city and state.


FUN FACT #1

Phil Heath, the subject of Plus Gallery artist Austin Parkhill's massive 2012 painting "Phil," recently claimed the title of Mr. Olympia for the third year in a row.  Not bad for the Denver resident and now one of the most acclaimed athletes in history.....the last bodybuilder to do so went on to become the governor of California!



FUN FACT #2

One of Denver Digerati's commissioned works, "METRO Re/De-construction" by Denver's own Chris Coleman, was picked up by two major online sites last week, Gizmodo and Popular Science, amounting to over 45,000 views!
