This week, Culture Club Members are headed to Susan Wick’s Studio at Z Wick Place in the RiNo Arts District. For more than six decades, Denver-based artist Susan Wick (born 1938 in Madison, Wisconsin) has made art without inhibition. Driven by a relentless curiosity, Wick studies life and people— she is the ‘maker of things.’ Colorful and energetic, her works are imbued with personal meaning and underlying narratives inspired by current events of her life and the world.

Many of her paintings contain pairs, and those with single figures often have companion paintings. She works in clay, textiles, yarn and found objects as well. The characters in her art are sometimes between human and animal and frequently androgynous. Creating genderless dramas and inventing new species with her imagination. Wick paints a world that is anything but lonely. Join us to be in community and discover Susan Wick’s amazing practice!

About CultureHop: 

The Biennial of the Americas' CultureHop program is designed to bring Culture Club members closer to the vibrant art and cultural scenes across the Americas right here in Denver. CultureHop invites participants to join curated Friday morning tours of artist studios, galleries, museums, and cultural spaces. Each week, members will "hop" between different creative venues, offering them an intimate and behind-the-scenes experience with local artists, curators, and cultural leaders. Meetups will feature coffee and pastries from local coffee shops. 

The program provides a unique opportunity to engage with local artists, spaces and galleries to explore diverse cultural expressions, and foster meaningful connections within the arts community. It's a great way for art enthusiasts and cultural explorers to stay connected to the creative pulse of Denver and build greater appreciation for the Americas.

This is a Culture Club Member Event. If you would like to become a member and hop along with us, join today!
