Nari Ward Around Town

We've partnered with Orange Barrel Media to bring Nari Ward’s work to digital spaces across downtown Denver, so that the entire city can engage with the monumental themes of Ward’s work such as identity, migration, displacement, and gentrification, among other critical ideas relevant to cities like Denver. The 38 digital ads are located along 14th and 16th Streets and along Speer Boulevard. Additionally, a new work titled LAZARUS Beacon will be projected on the Daniels and Fisher Tower as part of the Artists for Night Lights Denver, the Permanent Projection Mapping Installation on the tower (check it out below). This project was curated by Diana Nawi on behalf of Orange Barrel Media.

Check them out around town, here's a sneak peek (but just wait until you see them in person!)
