Robischon Gallery

Museum-level contemporary art exhibitions of regional, national and international artists since 1976

Since its inception in 1976, Robischon Gallery has been producing museum-level contemporary art exhibitions of regional, national, and international artists. Embracing the current pluralism in art, the exhibitions and artists represented purposefully address a continuum of stylistic and contextual concerns, allowing for a diverse range of voices. Robischon Gallery’s expansive exhibition program ma

intains a commitment to burgeoning and mid-career artists of integrity and vision both regionally and nationally while broadening its list of historically significant artists to include Kiki Smith, Richard Serra, Manuel Neri, and Christo, among others. Robischon Gallery’s represented artists of influence such as Judy Pfaff, Ann Hamilton, Enrique Martínez Celaya, John Buck, and Bernar Venet reaffirm the gallery’s vision to foster thought-provoking and dynamic progressions in contemporary art. Robischon Gallery’s thematically driven exhibitions are scheduled seven times per year, with each exhibition typically composed of two to three concurrent solo exhibitions and one featured group presentation. The gallery’s annual programming supports up to twenty solo exhibitions within its 9,000 square-foot space. Painting, sculpture, drawing, photography, prints, video, and installation are regularly presented by those established and emerging artists who are engaged in a variety of art-making practices. The robust artist list reflects the many diverse relationships throughout Robischon Gallery’s nearly 45 years in operation, including the names of currently represented and affiliated artists, as well as those artists who have been primarily associated with the gallery through its exhibition program. The gallery has long been recognized for premiering important artists and exhibiting challenging forms of creative expression over the last four-plus decades, as it continues to set bold new standards for contemporary art in the Mountain States region.

This Saturday May 30th, from 12-5pm, is the final opportunity to experience three captivating surreal solo exhibitions currently on view at Robischon Gallery: Stacey Steers’ 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑆𝑡𝑎𝑟𝑠 𝑊𝑎𝑡𝑐ℎ 𝐹𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝐿𝑜𝑛𝑔 𝐴𝑔𝑜, Kahn + Selesnick’s 𝐷𝑎𝑟𝑘 𝑀𝑎𝑡𝑡𝑒𝑟, and Kim Dickey’s 𝐴𝑛𝑑 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑜𝑤𝑠 𝑤𝑖𝑑𝑒.

Presenting all new series from photography to sculpture to film, the four acclaimed artists offer visitors entrance into the fantastical - with Kahn + Selesnick's mesmerizing tales of their signature Truppe Fledermaus characters, Kim Dickey's reimagining of the landscape through vessel and shield, and Stacey Steers' animated newest film, seven years in the making, alongside the artist's accompanying collages, prints and multiple objects.

Not to miss and in advance of the exhibition’s conclusion, is a brand new moving sculpture, just added into Steers' 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑆𝑡𝑎𝑟𝑠 𝑊𝑎𝑡𝑐ℎ 𝐹𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝐿𝑜𝑛𝑔 𝐴𝑔𝑜. Providing a glimpse of the newest work above, the artist’s intricate video-player sculpture, "The Orrery," uniquely extends the Steers film’s imaginative narrative into an intimate, immersive dimensional form.

The exhibitions of Steers, Kahn + Selesnick, and Dickey each lead viewers into their distinctive, compelling explorations of wonder - journeys of inexplicable mysteries and the poetic bridge that exists between the terrestrial and the cosmic.

On view through Saturday, May 30
Tuesday–Friday: 11–6 PM
Saturday: 12–5 PM

In her current spirited solo exhibition at Robischon Gallery, 𝐴𝑛𝑑 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑜𝑤𝑠 𝑤𝑖𝑑𝑒, Colorado artist Kim Dickey explores the intricacies and intimacies of her vessel and heraldic wall forms through the metaphor of the garden - and its shifting boundary between the real and the ideal. Widely recognized for her ongoing, and previously exhibited, varied sculpture series of large scale vessels and assembled ceramic constructions featuring repeating leaf-like forms, Dickey continues her investigation of historically inspired design concepts through a contemporary lens.

In these more intimate works, landscapes become stage-like spaces where blossoms, playful creatures, and hand-built vessels consider relationships between nature and culture, interior and exterior, and humanity’s imprint upon the land—even in its absence. Rich glazes, furrowed surfaces, and imaginative patterned forms evoke cycles of cultivation and renewal, offering reflections on connection, landscape, and the quiet promise of spring.

Surveying dynamic landscapes through his artful aerial photography, the compelling work of Robischon artist David Maisel reveals profound truths. Participating in four current summer museum exhibitions taking place from coast to coast, Maisel's thought-provoking perspective visually questions the volatile relationship between human-caused and naturally occurring topological formations, with a primary regional focus on western-US landscapes.

In order of images shown above, the museum exhibitions including Maisel's work are: “From Here to the Horizon,” at the California Museum of Photography, Through August 9th, “Beneath the Surface: Mining & American Photography,” at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., through August 23rd, “Altered Lands in the Anthropocene: Into the Time Horizon,” at Nevada Museum of Art, through September 20th, and “What We’ve Been up to: People,” at the Denver Art Museum through September 29th.

Internationally recognized Robischon Gallery artist Halim Al Karim was recently on view in Beijing, China as part of Glasstress, an expansive exhibition exploring the multifaceted possibilities of glass in contemporary art. Initiated by Berengo Studio in Venice in 2009 as a tandem event of the prestigious Venice Biennale, Glasstress has evolved into a vital international platform where glass and contemporary art converge, bringing together some of the world’s most celebrated artists and master glassmakers. This past 2026 presentation, alongside Al Karim, included such art world luminaries as: Tony Cragg, Mimmo Paladino, Cornelia Parker, Polly Apfelbaum, and Erwin Wurm, Tony Oursler, Qiu Zhijie, and Vik Muniz. Of note, within the Venice Biennale history, Halim Al Karim was selected to represent Iraq, post exile, in the 2011 reintegrated Iraq Pavilion at the 54th Biennale.

Working across many disciplines such as photography, painting, textile, and sculpture, Al Karim is most widely recognized for his innovative, blurred and veiled portraits - imagery exploring meditations on self-identity, power, war, dreams, memory and most importantly to the artist, the sacred. His experimentation over the decades with layered pigmented / photographic processes and exceptionally large collodion photographs - as well as his use of a wide range of sculptural materials, Al Karim is recognized for pushing the limits of both scale and material, as he continues to expand his soulfully expressive visual language in myriad ways.

Twelve new and engaging Kahn + Selesnick paintings are now in place at Robischon Gallery - a new zodiac suite to compliment the art duo’s current, and magically surreal photographic solo exhibition; “Dark Matter.” Each of the paintings in The Zodiac series are individually composed with their own visual narrative - richly painted in a range of blue, green and gold. The expressive group of twelve astrological signs, offer a fascinating shift in approach to the artists’ photographic work on view in the main gallery, while still building on the underlying concept. The artists explain:

“Everything we do is connected to augury and trying to understand from the stars or planets the patterns of the future and what is in store for us. Dark Matter is about fate, extinction and making our way in the darkness to find a path, detect the impossible and perhaps delay our appointment with the underworld gods. The zodiac comes from signals seen only at night, positions of planets and stars that strangely connect to our fate.”
-Kahn + Selesnick

With humor and wit, the Zodiac suite is a visual retelling of the Greek constellation myths, uniquely relaying the forgotten archetypal stories behind these ubiquitous cultural symbols.

Visit Robischon Gallery Tuesday through Saturday to see all the latest works by Kahn + Selesnick, alongside two other captivating concurrent solo exhibitions: “The Stars Watch From Long Ago,” by Stacey Steers, and “And all the meadows wide,” by Kim Dickey.

“There are endless yards of tulle — shaped into small mountains, draped over walls, contained into geometric color fields, tufted into puffs and sent flowing from the walls as if they were waterfalls gushing luscious pink and blue flows of faux liquid that end in puddles on the gallery floors...To have such a precious fabric in such abundance helps Hernando show viewers the world as she sees it. That view is rooted in Andean traditions that hold a belief that natural formations such as mountains and waterfalls ‘are living, divine beings containing both masculine and feminine energies.’”
- Ray Rinaldi

Currently on view at Robischon Gallery, is an expansive solo exhibition by treasured Colorado filmmaker, Stacey Steers. Centered around her latest handmade 22-minute animated work, 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑆𝑡𝑎𝑟𝑠 𝑊𝑎𝑡𝑐ℎ 𝐹𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝐿𝑜𝑛𝑔 𝐴𝑔𝑜, the exhibit includes mesmerizing video objects, hand colored collage stills and filmic print images. Steers’ latest award winning film, featuring an Oz-like farmhouse floating and spinning through space, reimagines iconic silent film actresses Lilian Gish, Janet Gaynor, and 1960’s Spanish actress, Ana Torrent, seamlessly recast into Steers’ unparalleled, poetic, collaged animation. Known for her sensitive, highly complex, storylines set in the black of night, Steers’ latest series offers a profound meditation on longing, loss, and wonder, while capturing a timeless connection between the historical and contemporary cultural concerns.

Wednesday, May 6th, Steers treated a receptive audience to an insightful artist talk at Robischon Gallery, addressing her film and literary influences, creative practice, and her experiences embracing both change and challenge in the film-making process.

On view alongside 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑆𝑡𝑎𝑟𝑠 𝑊𝑎𝑡𝑐ℎ 𝐹𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝐿𝑜𝑛𝑔 𝐴𝑔𝑜 are two standout solo exhibitions by exemplary Robischon artists Kahn+Selesnick, with 𝐷𝑎𝑟𝑘 𝑀𝑎𝑡𝑡𝑒𝑟, and Kim Dickey, presenting 𝐴𝑛𝑑 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑜𝑤𝑠 𝑤𝑖𝑑𝑒. All three magnificent and surreal exhibitions are on view now through May 30th.

Through perspectives, both historical and abstract, the methods, subjects, and aesthetics of Botany have played an important role in artist Kim Dickey's studio practice. A recent source of inspiration for the artist's "And all the meadows wide,” her current solo exhibition of ceramic work at Robischon Gallery, was Dickey's experience of walking 460 miles of ancient pilgrimage routes across France. Connecting the journey of the walk to the journey of creation, the artist shared:

“I found in making these paintings and vessels the same deep pleasure of slowing down, focusing on each individual plant in the field or fold in a form. These vessels--empty, still, vertical—hint at the container’s promise to hold. Each pot forms a pathway across furrowed fields, climbing upward in a journey of making. Their hollow volumes embody a delicate struggle, shifting and listing as they grew.”

The visually vibrant, and nuanced Kim Dickey exhibition is concurrently on view alongside two equally mesmerizing surrealist exhibitions featuring the new and recent photographic work of artist duo Kahn + Selesnick and the new filmic based work by Stacey Steers. All three fully engaging solo exhibitions will be on view through Saturday May 30th.

On view now through June 28th at Germany's Kunstmuseum Pablo Picasso Museum, are over one hundred unmanifested projects by one of the most influential artistic pairs of our time, Christo and Jeanne-Claude. Titled 𝑈𝑛𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑧𝑒𝑑, the exhibition consists of artworks that were never brought to fruition, despite years of planning and extensive negotiation.
Throughout their groundbreaking, six decade long careers, Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s creative process was often defined by persistence in the face of resistance, as many proposals encountered significant logistical, legal, and administrative challenges.
Drawn from the holdings of the Christo and Jeanne-Claude Foundation, as well as private and public collections, the multilayered exhibition offers a comprehensive view of the artists’ enduring vision and determination. The collection underscores the depth of projects that, although unrealized, remain vital to understanding these visionary artists and the full scope of their practice - which include proposals for The Mastaba, The Sant’Angelo Bridge, and Over the River, for the Arkansas River in Colorado - the latter conceived as the second Colorado installation after “Valley Curtain.”
