Hot DAM

On Sunday, Andrea and I went to lunch with her friend Suessy and Suessy’s boyfriend, Clyde at Capital Tea before we went to the  Hot DAM: Art at All Hours Grand Opening of the Hamilton Building at the Denver Art Museum.  The new building, designed by Daniel Libeskind, is incredible.  There are almost no right angles in the entire structure.  The new wing is an impressive facility and a great example of “modern” architecture although I do have some concerns that the interior of the structure will not age well.  There was already noticible dirt and damage on a number of the gleaming white walls and the building just opened on Saturday.  According to the Rocky Mountain News, the event was a smashing success as the museum sold out of the almost 34,000 free tickets for the 35 hour opening event this weekend.
