Logan Lecture: Shiva Ahmadi
Denver Art Museum, CO
Tuesday, May 6, 2025 | 6PM - 7PM
Shiva Ahmadi speaks about her work at the Denver Art Museum, part of its Logan Lecture Series. Across multiple media including watercolor paintings, sculpture, and digital animation, Ahmadi creates  exquisitely crafted scenes of beauty and terror that illuminate global issues of migration, war, and brutality against marginalized peoples. Her work is informed by current events in the Middle East and the US, and inspired by Iranian, Turkish, and Indian book and miniature painting traditions.
 
Since 2007, Denver Art Museum's Logan Lecture Series has presented in-depth discussions with over 120 contemporary artists from around the globe.
