The Light Show







It was a dreary, rainy afternoon yesterday, and so I decided to head over to the Denver Art Museum (the DAM) to see if there was anything new to see. And there was! The DAM has a new exhibition called The Light Show, which features photographs, paintings, sculptures, and even a corridor of mirrors, all of which demonstrate the concepts of light and shadow.  On exhibit are photographs by Ansel Adams and Man Ray, religious paintings by European and Mexican artists, and many other works of art from the museum's collection. All of these items on display have been in storage, due to the renovation of the museum's North Building, and I have to say this exhibit is well worth seeing.  The only discordant note is that I read in the museum brochure that the North Building will not reopen until the fall of 2021, which means there will be no free buffets at the museum's Final Friday events for at least 2 years.  Talk about a bummer.
