Great show! Very interesting exploration of the idea of a boogy man and archetypal symbolism.... The outpost sculptural element and imagined landscape really transform the gallery space.

By far one of the more interesting shows that i have seen at the MCA. ... The Paperwork's Gallery continues to push the envelope yet again with this show from Mr. Helms. Two thumbs up. GO SEE THIS SHOW.

I really liked the pseudo-snipers nest / fortress / battleship / outpost construction in the gallery.... Its sheer scale and construction method in combination with the juxtaposition of imagery from manifest destiny paintings, lone wolves, barren artic landscapes and subtle references to black metal build this dark ambient energy in the gallery space that you can really feel. The paramilitary soldiers draped in blood-like masks definitely add to the tense atmosphere. Although his ink on mylar drawings are a bit more abstract and help to lighten the weight of his darker imagery. Great show.

My wife and I were going to visit the museum today until we saw you were... featuring this artist. There are many types of art that I may not like, but I can appreciate for the creative work that they are....this is something entirely different. I am disgusted and disappointed that you would feature this in your museum. If we are to consider this art, maybe I will just visit our local slaughter house the next time I feel in need of some culture.

I must admit that the St. Sebastian piece, while gorgeous and emotional, didn't seem real. Maybe... something about the formaldehyde made it seem ghostly and plastic. The butterfly pieces were wonderful, but I was most moved by the medicine cabinet piece. The drab, faded and institutional colours made me profoundly sad. All in all, I loved this room!

how many times in my life I have felt like a martyr. And I know my... sister is a martyr, who is always doing for others and never thinking of herself. She happens to be a rancher. St. Sabastian reminds me of her.

MCA DENVER has been conceptualized as an incubator of ideas in motion. The launch of this web site has been planned from the inception of the Museum's innovative programs to challenge what art means to audiences today. What's It To You? The question is essential to everything that art has to offer - its sublime and rebellious nature intertwined. We ask you for your answers whether subversive, controversial, enticing, or thoughtful. Your responses are part of our open platform. As a Museum Without a Front Door, we extend that same idea with this invitation for your imagination to go global - What's It to You?
