Sarah Quinlan at Boxcar

Boxcar is, quite possibly, Denver’s rawest art gallery.

Their coop and curators continue to amaze with the integrity and from-the-streets genius artists their gallery has been come to be known for.

This week they present Wanderlust, June 24th to July 24th 2010. This exhibition features the work of Boxcar veteran Sarah Quinlan and newest member Ira Fail. The opening reception will be Thursday, June 24th from 6-9pm and First Friday July 24th from 6-10pm. Wanderlust will run through July 24th, 2010.

Mixed media artist Sarah Quinlan’s newest work Wanderlust is a visual documentary of female undergarments. In her work she uses a combination of found ephemeral materials, female outlines and watercolors to search for the “perfect support”.

Artist Ira Fail’s current work, Birds of a Feather, explores the relationship between the female portrait, birds, and the old cliché “birds of a feather, flock together”. In the work he blends the two themes seamlessly to illustrate the common, delicate beauty of both subjects. His use of vibrant color varies the subject, and through his style allows us to enjoy the fantasy element of the work.

Wanderlust opens Thursday, June 24th, 2010 from 6-9 pm and First Friday July 24th from 6pm to 10pm. Third Friday July 16th from 12-8pm. Normal gallery hours are Friday & Saturday from 12-5 pm, or by appointment by calling 303.725.7047
