I attended the first Final Friday of the year at the Denver Art Museum (The DAM) last night, and was a bit disappointed in the evening. The museum is featuring a big show these days called Brilliant: Cartier in the 20th Century, exhibiting collections of very famous jewelry, and so all the events and artist talks last night seemed to be about diamonds, jewelry, rocks, etc. The only event I liked was the Buntport Theater presentation by Joan and Charlie (in the top right of the above collage), dressed up like the iconic subjects of the museum's famous painting of the same name. The stage, by the way, is the museum's freight elevator, but somehow it works. It was pretty damn funny, too. And no - I don't think jewelry is art. But perhaps theater is.
