Nowhere Lands: Joshua Palmeri
March 1 – 31, 2023
Lekker Coffee House

Nowhere Lands is a solo photography show by local visual artist Joshua Palmeri.

Nowhere Lands explores the identity of place and ubiquity. With the rapid expansion and development of our western landscapes, Palmeri constantly asks the question, what are we to become?

Utilizing a combination of traditional photography and digital photo-collage, light, and a contemporary perspective, Palmeri seeks to capture a memory of our dynamic time. He challenges the viewer to consider: how much of our past are we authentically bringing with us, and how much are we erasing?

Eye to Eye: Portraits of Pride, Strength, and Beauty
March 1 – 31
Bob Ragland Branch Library

In honor of Women’s History month, we are turning the library into an art gallery for this special photography show about women who aren’t typically recognized during Women’s History Month: They are older women, and they are part of the LGBTQ community.

The women in the portraits grew up when coming out meant risking their health, their jobs, their housing, their families, their friends. To stay safe, many stayed silent for years. In these portraits, they break that silence to be seen as they really are, to show you that being openly LGBTQ is profoundly human and courageous. Their history IS women’s history.

Visitors are invited to view the photos anytime during the library’s open hours.

Photographer Carey Candrian is an associate professor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, and she serves on the National Board of Directors at GLMA: Health Professionals Advancing LGBTQ Equality. She came out to herself when she was 16 and didn’t tell her family and friends until she was 28.

She interviewed nearly three dozen older LGBTQ women (59-85 years old) during the first year of COVID-19 to understand their health needs and the challenges as they age. These portraits came out of those interviews.

Where To Go Next…
An online /  live exhibit in bathrooms across Denver
March 1 – 31, 2023
RedLine Contemporary Art Center, Leon Gallery, Pon Pon/Lane Meyer, Pie Hole, and Ironton Distilling, among others

Adding a twist to how and where we can view art, “Where To Go Next” will exhibit photos from Brian Fouhy’s book, Occupied, placed in the space where they were photographed: the bathroom. Locations will vary from establishments featured in the book, to galleries, cafes, restaurants, and bars.

Each photograph on display will be accompanied by a QR code which will lead people to a website and map providing a convenient source to find all the urinals on display – and give an excuse for a visit to the loo.

The website will launch March 1, 2023 at wheretogonext.is.

Brian Fouhy is an artist and creative director that loves the internet and resides in Denver.
