A6 Super stoked for Kevin Sloan exhibit opening tomorrow night Naropa University ! It's a stunning body of work and we are thrilled to partner with them on this. #insidedenver

A6 This year, K will host a number of stunning solos: Ashley Eliza Williams (Feb 15), Shawn Huckins, Daisy Patton,Doug Kacena,Suchitra Mattai, Andrew Jensdotter + a few exciting surprises! And Denver is excited to host the very first Denver Fine Art Fair May 28-31 #InsideDenver

A5: Always being prepared to be flexible and shift direction to make the exhibit shine, changing timelines, translating artist vision into reality, coordinating many moving parts, AND having trusted resources to turn to when things MUST be expertly done on the fly #InsideDenver

A4 cont'd: I agree with Corinne Anderson --accessibility is huge! people need to be able to see/experience art regardless of their socio-economic standing. Art is for everyone. #insidedenver

A4: We see patrons crave an experience around art, think Yayoi Kusama’s infinity rooms, strolling Private Day Art Basel , one-day-only massive pop-up installations, “be there or you missed it” stories on @Instagram . Effective curation reflects today’s society #InsideDenver

A3 cont’d: Our gallery is artist-centric in the sense that we facilitate and encourage our artists to dream BIG! We listen to their ideas and make everything in our power to make those happen #InsideDenver

A3: We seek out artists who conceptually, visually and perhaps even energetically, align with our aesthetics & vision of disrupting the art world, taking big risks, putting Denver on the map! Or they find us, like Hunt Slonem who is in 250 museums worldwide! #InsideDenver

A2 cont'd: At K, curating is about giving our patrons an unforgettable experience and the artworks they come away with are artifacts of that experience. #InsideDenver

A2: I start with conceptuals: what is the artist’s intention? How will the audience resonate with the work in this environment? It is important to see how the works speak to one another and lead you through the exhibition #InsideDenver

A1: Art at its fundamental best is a form of communication. The role of the curator is to tell a specific story, by creating an experience around a topic, & showcasing work that cohesively shapes that dialogue, while authentically upholding the vision of the artist #InsideDenver

In 2010, Marina Abramović met the gaze of gallery-goers for 736-and-a-half hours, and in 2019 an artist taped a banana to a wall (which was subsequently eaten). What does the art of the past decade tell us? bbc.com/culture/story/…
