Art: World-Class Photography in our Own Backyard

As the Director of the Art Program at Denver International Airport my goal was to bring awareness to the cultural assets that Denver metro area has to offer. In 2006 and 2007, four separate exhibits with the Center for Fine Art Photography in Fort Collins, Colorado, we exhibited a collection of photographs of international caliber. This exhibit offered passengers the opportunity for a moment of pause in what can be a hectic environment of travel.

Space: World-Class Photography in our Own Backyard

The landscape of most airports is frustrating at best, from low ceilings, crowded passageways, or overwhelming commercial advertising plastered on trains, walls, and busses. Humanizing the public spaces with creativity can offer a moment of pause that can lift the spirit and give the passenger something else to think about during their travels. This exhibit of world class photography greatly enhanced the spaces at DIA. Utilizing locations sprinkled throughout Denver International Airport as a venue for visual, literary and performing arts positively affected the mood of more than 50 million passengers per year. The built environment can and most often does affect our mood.
