Reliable K Contemporary established in 2009 has reinvented the artistic experience. K Contemporary is an artist-centred gallery devoted to conceptual and contemporary artists. It occasionally organizes engaging pop-ups and art interventions and participates in art fairs. K Contemporary is a stage for involving contemporary artists to provoke conversation on how crucial contemporary art is in society by offering immersive, experiential exhibits. Doug Kacena (founder and owner) has established exhibitions at major institutions like Crystal Bridges, Denver Art Museum, and internationally recognized events such as the Sharjah Biennial and Biennial of the Americas since opening by. K Contemporary, which rotates galleries, specializes in art interventions. K Contemporary frequently locates artists in unusual places and circumstances. A few remarkable installations have occurred in the Colorado Governor's residence at Boettcher Mansion, Denver, and the mobile #ArtFindsUs exhibition, which traveled around Denver and Boulder during the global pandemic. Our artists address the American value system, the subtle power and symbolism of iconography, technical processes and materials, personal histories and human connections, contradictions and perception. Yet, they all come to the same conclusion: art is a refuge for the soul, no matter its form. K Contemporary is a space where artists can create that art. K Contemporary also provides Colorado-based artists with a home for showing their work. K Contemporary is a new kind of contemporary gallery. K Contemporary is an associate member of Denver Art Dealers Association (DADA). The gallery presents five to six exhibitions of an international and national background annually. We also host museum exhibitions, online exhibitions, and offsite installations to promote our artists in various locales. K Contemporary's physical space and online presence allow artists to experiment, take risks, and push the boundaries of contemporary art. The company is adamant that the promotion and celebration of diversity and inclusion in all forms of art are long overdue. K Contemporary has a moral obligation to provide a platform for underrepresented voices, perspectives, and experiences, as do all galleries. We strive to be an open, inclusive, and accessible space for artists and audiences of all races, origins, genders, and sexual orientations. K Contemporary also believes in paying artists a fair wage for their creations by supporting their livelihoods while allowing them to continue creating art.
The gallery has several positive reviews, but visitors' main highlight is the friendly and knowledgeable staff, the courteous welcome they receive and the opportunity to learn about artist and the collection. Visitors are excited about the new exhibit and are anxious to see what is available. The artworks have also been commended as fascinating and high quality, with displays being considered well-curated and carefully composed. Some reviewers have observed unusual aspects, such as most owner participation and endless explanation of the artist selection. The consistent element is the satisfying time that the visitor has while at the location.
