Bruce Price exhibition "I am a cloud" to commence Thursday, March 4th

This is the year for experimentation at Plus Gallery, and what better way to prove it than with a new solo exhibition by the Director of the "Institute for Experimental Studies" at the Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design, the extraordinary Bruce Price.  The artist returns to Plus Gallery for the fourth time with "I am a cloud," a new body of work culled from an intense exploration into abstract painting.  Featuring a selection of this prolific painter's recent works, the exhibition also introduces a dynamic element in which two of the four gallery walls will be re-installed each week according to the desires of a guest curator working from a large array of experimental small-scale works on canvas. The initial installation will be performed by Singer Gallery director Simon Zalkind, with others to follow each week as announced on our gallery newsletter and facebook page.

Following an opening reception this Thursday, March 4th from 6-8pm, the gallery will host a gathering on each successive Wednesday evening from 6-7pm for patrons to engage with the new view and listen to Bruce play the viola, followed by tea.  Guests who support the most viewings of each installation will be eligible to be selected as the final guest curator for the last week of the show, to be determined by random drawing or by the most convincing argument submitted to the gallery to support one's desire or credentials to participate.

Join us this Thursday to commence activities and support one of the region's most honest and relevant contemporary artists.  The evening also marks the first anniversary in our new space, we look forward to celebrating another milestone as a critical component for Denver contemporary art.
