ARTS AND RECREATION ART events GALLERY HOURS Monday-Friday 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Saturday 10 a.m.-4 p.m. CURTIS CENTER FOR THE ARTS • 2349 EAST ORCHARD ROAD, GREENWOOD VILLAGE, CO 80121 • 303-797-1779 EXHIBIT AT CURTIS TO FEATURE WORLD RENOWNED HORSE ARTIST Doug Owen’s graceful sculptures offer up a wealth of associations. The horse, his perennial subject, has of course been a favorite of artists for centuries, perhaps no other creature has been portrayed in art so frequently. In his singleminded devotion to the equine form, Owen joins the ranks of such renowned artists as Frederic Remington and Susan Rothenberg, for whom horses retain a primal power. Like them, he also makes his home in the Western U.S., where horses further connote the complex history of the American frontier. Although Owen’s forms undoubtedly resemble horses, they can also be seen as pure assemblages of faintly recognizable objects, namely car, tractor, and motorcycle parts. Owen’s choice of medium imbues his sculptures with a touch of humor, of irony: his horses are constructed out of the very material that ultimately replaced them. At the same time, these vintage vehicle parts are themselves obsolete, and carry with them a certain nostalgic air. A culmination of 40 years of artistic exploration, Owen’s sculpture has garnered an international following in recent years. Now currently residing in western Colorado, Doug is excited to be showing eight of his horse assemblages at the Curtis Center for the Arts. PEE WEE INTRO TO SPORTS Participants will learn the basics of basketball, football, soccer and t-ball in an exciting atmosphere.
