Nonetheless, we made a short trip to Denver earlier this month to see some artwork and chat with Theresa Anderson (our interview with her will be posted on the Street Meet page soon). While in the city, we came across the work of a most interesting young Dever artist, Tyler Beard. Tucked away in the Viewing Room of Robischon Gallery's recent "Material Abstraction" Show, we found an astounding collection of Beard's collages and wacky assemblages. Wavering somewhere between geometric abstraction and nature diorama, his works conjure the possibilities of a modern-day Joseph Albers trapped in a Discovery Channel Store. We were honestly blown away!
Airstream is a node, a spoke, a link, a coupling, a fastener, a joint, a conduit for the discussion, the comprehension, and the creation of contemporary art in Colorado. It is a place that helps to bring together the archipelago that is Colorado's contemporary art scene. More than anything, it is a place for us to muse, chat, and investigate.

Tyler Beard at Robischon
Well, it has been a few months since we have posted. Libby spent 2 months doing a residency at Platte Forum in the spring (a post about this is soon to come) and Brandon has been busy this summer teaching a high school summer class titled "How to Survive the Zombie Apocalypse." Between fighting off zombies and making art, we haven't had much time to type.
