From picture books to comics, visual storytelling is all around. This week, we’ll draw inspiration from the galleries to tell new visual stories of our own. A little drawing, a little writing, this camp has it all!

Shiva Ahmadi orchestrates exquisitely crafted scenes of beauty and terror. Her vibrant fantasy realms are, upon closer inspection, macabre theaters of conflict where faceless figures engage in endless cycles of struggle and pain. Combining luminous colors and mystical beings with violent imagery, Ahmadi creates watercolor paintings, sculptures, and digital animations that illuminate global issues of migration, war, and brutality against marginalized peoples. Her work is informed by current events in the Middle East and the US, and inspired by Iranian, Turkish, and Indian book and miniature painting traditions.

In 2016, Ahmadi received the Anonymous Was A Woman Award and a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant. Her work is in the collections of the Asian Art Museum, San Francisco; Dallas Museum of Art; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; and Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia.

To celebrate Night at the Museums, the Denver Art Museum will be free to all from 5 - 10 pm. Explore our reimagined, expanded campus. With innovative creative spaces, incredible views, and inspiring art from around the world and across time, there is something for everyone to love.

The Provenance Research Department is excited to present Looking Out, Looking In: Legacies of the Masuda Collection. Provenance Research Fellow Mac Coyle will highlight works at the Denver Art Museum from the collection of Baron Masuda Takashi (1848-1938). President of Mitsu Company, Masuda was an avid collector during Japan’s transformative Meiji period (1868-1912) who assembled one of the most impressive and influential holdings of Japanese art—the legacy of which can still be felt in Japan’s cultural patrimony laws and in Japanese art collections worldwide.
