Opening Reception: Process to Consumption

Join me for the opening exhibition of Process to Consumption paired with A Celebration of Aesthetics, an interactive wine and art pairing by Simone FM Spinner, CWS.

ABOUT A CELEBRATION OF AESTHETICS

Be the first to experience a new understanding of the similarities between wine and art. Each pairing consists of carefully selected wines paired with eight specifically selected works of art to illustrate a complementary aesthetic theme. Learn about cutting edge aesthetics theory while enjoying in an evening of wine, art, conversation and camaraderie.

ABOUT PROCESS TO CONSUMPTION

The Process to Consumption exhibition is presented by Create Denver. The project provides eight Denver-based artists with limited studio time on the third floor of the McNichols Building and “vessels” to create their original artworks. This show challenges both the artist and audience by providing the public a rare opportunity to share in dialog and witness the artists’ creative process from conception to the many stages, methods and perspectives of execution, leading to the final exhibition.
