Artist Josh Keyes
One of the best local exhibits of 2007 was painter Josh Keyes at Limited Addiction, and arts blog "SpearTalks" features an excellent interview with Keyes that mentions he is due for another show here in Denver come June 2009. From the article:
At the core, my desire has always been to create images that fix in the
mind. There are certain paintings like Van Gogh's self portraits, or
Francis Bacon's screaming baboon, or a Hokusai print, that have a
lasting trace on the mind. The combination of emotional intensity with
a well-composed image is what I strive to accomplish in my work.
