All Together Now by Roberto Behar and Rosario Marquardt - Photo by Ken Hamel/DenverArts.org
Back in 2007 before the MCA had their fancy new digs, they were housed across the street in the "Temporary Contemporary" and the last exhibit prior to their hiatus pre-grand opening was "The Peace Project" by Miami-based artists Roberto Behar and Rosario Marquardt. They came back to Denver to install a playful public sculpture "All Together Now" on 14th st near the Curtis Hotel, across from the Denver Performing Arts Center, and that work was recently honored as one of the top 45 public artworks of the past year by the Americans for the Arts as part of their 2008 Public Art Year in Review. And as a kid raised on Yellow Submarine, there's no way I can say "All Together Now" without saying it again, so everyone... Alllll Togeeeether Now (All together now...)
