In honor of Denver Arts Week, the Dikeou Collection invites you to celebrate the re-installation of Sebastiaan Bremer’s photographs at the Colorado Building for “Know Your Art Friday” on November 1. Adam Gildar, founder and owner of Gildar Gallery, will be playing tunes from our extensive vinyl record archive. Light refreshments will also be served.
Earlier this year the Dikeou Collection installed two large photographic works by Dutch artist, Sebastiaan Bremer, at the Pop-Up Space on Bannock St. These pieces have since been moved and re-installed at the main Dikeou Collection Galleries in the Colorado Building.
“Schöner Götterfunken” is name of the photographic series where Bremer works primarily with snapshots taken from his own family vacations. He paints or draws upon the images, enlarges them, and then re-photographs them. This creates images that exist in between the worlds of painting and photography, where, as Bremer says, “you see how it’s made but the magic still works.”
This event is free to attend and open to the public.
