ART
Museum’s silent partners speak out
Art-museum curators tend to remain behind the scenes, arranging exhibitions, stewarding collections and pursuing acquisitions.
But a new series at the Denver Art Museum, “Conversations with Curators,” will put these caretakers and scholars front and center, as they talk about aspects of the holdings they oversee.
The talks will begin at 4 p.m. Friday on the lower level of the museum’s original building, with Timothy Standring, curator of painting and sculpture, discussing mythology in old-master painting.
The conversations will continue at the same time on the first Friday of each month in different locations around the museum. They are free with regular admission. 720-865-5000 or . Kyle MacMillan
