Yesterday was the first Friday of the month, and so I walked over to Santa Fe Boulevard here in Denver after work for the monthly Art Walk. Not only was it nice and warm outside (70 degrees, the same temperature as in Miami), but it appears that many of the galleries decided to get a jump on The Month of Photography (which is March here in Denver), and started featuring some great photography exhibitions a month early. Metropolitan State University's Center for the Visual Arts showcased an exhibition titled "Spatial Stories," which features works by some great African photographers, including Pieter Hugo, whose photographs of people living over a dump filled with discarded computer equipment are spectacular. At the Artwork Network Gallery, Bruce Zander's "Reinterpretations: Photographs in Intaglio" is also pretty impressive. Even the photographs on display at John Fielder's Gallery at 833 Santa Fe were pretty damn good. On the other hand, perhaps everything looked so wonderful to me only because I was actually warm, even though it was after dark. I'll have to think about that and let you know. Stay tuned.
