      Thanks, but mainly the art is the star here, not my photos. There are a couple of artists involved in the installation and I actually know one of the people who helped set it up. Anybody in or near Denver ought to make an effort to check it out in person.

      Well! My compliments to the artists. This prove that hard work and quality never go out of style. Thanks for sharing this.

      This season’s signature exhibition, Kizuna: West Meets East, brings together two installation artists working in bamboo: Tetsunori Kawana and Stephen Talasnik. Through different working methods, both artists employed this versatile natural material to create large site-specific works for the Gardens.

      In addition to these ephemeral artworks, Denver Botanic Gardens will proudly unveil the newly expanded Japanese Garden, Shofu-en, with the additions of the new Bill Hosokawa Bonsai Pavilion and Tea Garden in June. Living displays illustrate the diversity of bamboo species.
