Founded in 1893, the Denver Art Museum has the largest and most comprehensive collection of world art between Kansas City and the West Coast, with over 55,000 works of art. Its American Indian art collection is internationally renowned, and its pre-Columbian and Spanish Colonial art collection is outstanding. Other collections include Painting & Sculpture, Asian, Architecture, Design & Graphics, Modern & Contemporary, and Textile Art. In less than five years, the Denver Art Museum will nearly double in size and boast one of the country’s most unique structures. Construction on an extraordinary addition designed by renowned architect Daniel Libeskind began in July 2003 and, when finished, will include permanent gallery space, special exhibition venues, a restaurant and a rooftop sculpture garden with spectacular mountain views.
