Pressing for Change: Located in the heart of the Arts District on Santa Fe, the Center for Visual Art is the off-campus art gallery of Metropolitan State University of Denver, examining current issues through contemporary art. In addition to showing significant contemporary art, the award-winning CVA serves as an interactive art laboratory for both MSU Denver students and the community. The CVA is free and open to the public and offers a full schedule of changing exhibitions of significant local, regional and international contemporary art. Tours are available upon request. Group size limitations are based on the current exhibition. Artists in the exhibition examine the state of our vulnerable environment, either directly or through its effects on culture and identity, and the changing world. These multidisciplinary artists have printmaking at the core of their artmaking practice. Pressing for Change was curated by Melanie Finlayson. The exhibition will be on view January 5 – March 23, 2024 at Center for Visual Art, MSU Denver.
