Facial Recognition
Aportrait serves many purposes. It can remind us of who we are or who someone once was, whether depicted in great accuracy or through symbolism. While our fascination with a portrait is often an ineffable experience, there's one simple explanation of the appeal of a human face: connection—made possible through technique, style and color.

Curated for Collectors
One of the most anticipated shows of the year returns to Arcadia Contemporary this September. True to tradition, the 12th annual Five & Under exhibition features the gallery's top artists alongside emerging talent scouted by gallery owner Steve Diamant. An invitation from Diamant, who is known for his discerning eye, to participate in the show can be a breakthrough moment for an artist. It's also a tremendous opportunity for collectors, as all of the 100 to 200 works are priced at $5,000 or less.

Summer Celebration
Gallery 1261 is gearing up for its annual 1261 Summer Show, featuring works by more than 10 of the Denver gallery's top artists. Collectors can expect to find at least 50 fresh and original artworks. The growing roster of participating artists includes Gregory Block, Scott Conary, Valerio D'Ospina, Hollis Dunlap, Daniel Sprick, Tibor Nagy, Vincent Xeus, Elizabeth Zanzinger and Heather Neill, with others being added as the show approaches. Among the many show highlights, is the detailed work of Gregory Block, known for his exploration of an array of subject matter. \"My work has always been, and I hope always will be, a fluid interpretation of how I see the world,\" explains Block. \"That means no subject matter or technique is ever off the table. I consider myself a contemporary realist because while I generally strive to paint the 'reality' of my subjects, I do so with a keen awareness of the fact that all our true realities are subjective.\"

The Power of Place
The tradition of landscape painting has stood the test of time. The natural world changes but the desire to depict it has endured, ever since it ceased being only a backdrop for figurative works, first in the Netherlands in the early 17th century, and emerged as a genre in its own right.
