Black Canyon of Gunnison by Ruth Soller   Cache de Poudre by Ruth Soller

 

Broomfield, CO artist Ruth Soller is thrilled that two of her oil paintings “Black Canyon of Gunnison” and “Cache de Poudre” are accepted in the Creative Capitol Metro Denver Exhibition. Creative Capitol celebrates Colorado artists and images of the state of Colorado. The Colorado Creative Industries & Denver International Airport received submissions from Colorado artists who reside in the following counties - Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Broomfield, Denver, Douglas, and Jefferson. The Exhibit will be on display at Denver International Airport from November 5, 2010 to February 27, 2011.

 

 In 2009, Denver International Airport was the tenth-busiest airport in the world by passenger traffic with 50,167,485 passengers. The airport's distinctive white tensile fiberglass roof is aesthetically designed to be reminiscent of the snow-capped Rocky Mountains in winter. DIA is also known for a pedestrian bridge connecting the terminal to Concourse A that allows travelers to view planes taxiing directly underneath and provides sweeping views of the Rocky Mountains to the West and the high plains to the East. Both during construction and after the opening of the airport, Denver International Airport has set aside a portion of its construction and operation budgets for art. The corridor from the Jeppesen Terminal and Concourse A usually contains additional temporary exhibits.

“Black Canyon of Gunnison” by Ruth Soller will also be published in the 2010 American Art Collector book by Alcove Books of Berkeley, California. Ruth is represented by Solveig Lark of Gallery East in Loveland, Colorado. http://www.GalleryEast.com
