Boulder Public Library Art Display
Through September at the Boulder Public Library is “Art and Artists: University-Commissioned Artwork.” The 16 original pieces were commissioned by CU-Boulder to be used in print pieces. Many adorn the walls in buildings across campus but have never been on view for the general public. The exhibition showcases both the artists and the works that have brought CU to life across a variety of mediums – from oil paintings, to pen-and-ink sketches, to pastels.
