Drawing Parallels: Community Art & Artifacts from 2020 - Museum of Boulder
October 30, 2020 - March 1, 2021
In the Museum of Boulder’s new fall exhibit, Drawing Parallels: Community Art & Artifacts from 2020, we invite you to explore the relationships among simultaneous sweeping events - from global wars and pandemics to movements for civil rights - in Boulder’s past and present. Drawing Parallels cuts through the onslaught of today’s news to discover how people in the past dealt with concurrent historic moments and to present contemporary perspectives on 2020 from local artists, frontline workers, and community members. Admission to the Museum also includes access to The Boulder Experience Gallery, which recently received the prestigious Award of Excellence from the American Association for State and Local History (AASLH).
“Om Mani Padme Hum” by Eduard Sangadzhiev - Refuge Art Gallery
January 19, 2021 - February 14, 2021
Daily, 11 am - 6 pm
About the artist:
Eduard Sangadzhiev is an artist-nomad, his art combines a balanced mixture of classical art school and contemporary techniques. He is a unique artist who brought his talent overseas to continue to create his artwork. Eduard is originally of Kalmykia, Russia, and now lives in New York City. Kalmykia is the only Buddhist region in the southern part of European Russia. Eduard grew up with his Kalmyk values and traditions which shaped his style of art. He studied at the Moscow High Art and Industrial school at the monumental and decoration painting department. After he got his education, he returned to his city and began his career. He participated in many exhibitions around Russia and United States. Eduard's paintings were given as a gift to His Holiness the Dalai Lama XIV; Patriarch of Russia, Aleksey II; President of Azerbaijan, G. Aliev; President of Kyrgyzstan, A. Akaev, President of FIDE, F. Kampamanus. Buddhism is one of the main inspirations behind his canvas. The show we bring to Refuge aims to give healing to Boulder’s community during the current crisis. The Goddess Tara presented in all her manifestations and colors - White Tara, Red Tara, Black Tara, Yellow Tara or Green Tara - is the emanation of the strong energy of compassion and healing. May you all be well, and obtain this healing energy, however and wherever you access it, letting it grow stronger within you in 2021!
