This expansive survey exhibition features work from the past five decades by Colorado artist Floyd D. Tunson. Two major arts centers in the Denver metro area — The Arvada Center for the Arts & Humanities and RedLine Contemporary Art Center — present Tunson’s works simultaneously, creating one exhibition across two locations.
Floyd Tunson is one of Colorado’s most important contemporary artists. Over the past 50 years, he has prodigiously, fearlessly, and innovatively created art from his keen cultural perspective, taking on identity, race, and history. An incredibly influential educator for 30 years in the public school system, Tunson’s impact extends beyond the art world into local communities and future generations.
Collaboratively curated by Wylene Carol, Daisy McGowan, and Collin Parson.
