Denver has never really been known for art. Some of the city's smaller neighbors like Sante Fe have a strong and thriving art culture. This perception has started to change after the Denver Art Musuem's expansion in 2006. The expansion opened the amazing Hamilton Building to the public. The Hamilton wing was designed by famed Architect Daniel E. Libeskind and has been recognized by Institute of Architects.
The building has added some much needed life and sophistication to downtown Denver. The building was meant to capture the essence of the Rocky Mountains and the ever present sunshine of Colorado.
The inside of Hamilton Building is just as impressive as its outside.
More than simply impressive architecture the museum has also provided a place for Denver to show case its growing local, native and international art collection.
