The paintings, titled Vibrations of Scarlet on Crimson, Space Mysteries and Explosions in Unknown Space were contributed by the Kirkland Museum. In the Chambers Grant Salon, three of the largest paintings Colorado artist Vance Kirkland ever created grace the walls, side-by-side, as a tribute to the performing arts showcased in the building. Here is an image of the Ellie Caulkins Opera House, courtesy of Doors Open Denver. The life-like sculpture titled Maria Mosina and Igor Vassine by artist John DeAndrea stands in the lobby on the north side of the building, and a fascinating mural titled Rehearsal by artist Stephen Batura hangs on the south side of the lobby. Two incredible original works of art are on display in the Ellie Caulkins Opera House as part of Denver’s 1% For The Arts Program, which dedicates 1% of the cost of all Denver capital improvement projects to funding artwork specifically for the project. The Auditorium is now home to a state-of-the-art lyric opera house, colloquially referred to as The Ellie, and the sophisticated Chambers Grant Salon. Built for Denver’s first Democratic National Convention, the Quigg Newton Municipal Auditorium was renovated in 2005.
