This is one of my favorite Cezanne paintings. These three human skulls alone are a good reason to go to the DIA. Cezanne explores the organic shapes of the real human skulls exaggerating the shapes to their fullest potential.
This Donald Sultan painting was a tough one to install after a recent cleaning.
That's me standing by the Franz Kline to show the scale of the work. This was my last day at work.
Giovanni Bellini was an important Venetian painter of the Renaissance. The Bellini family revolutionized figurative painting. This is really beautiful, go check it out.
Giocametti, Fuseli's Nightmare, and Frances Bacon stand out in the scary theme room of the DIA.
Jean Dubuffet
Rauschenberg and Matisse
Mark Rothko is one of the most important modernist painters of the last century. It's hung a little too high but always a powerful experience to behold.
These are a some highlights of the DIA's collection.
