Painting a New World: Mexican Art and Life, 1521-1821, which is organized by the Denver Art Museum, is the largest exhibition of Mexican colonial paintings ever assembled outside of Mexico. On view through July 25, 2004, Painting a New World brings together works from Spain, Austria, France, Italy, and Hungary as well as the United States and Mexico, many of which have never been exhibited. Visitors have the opportunity to experience traditional daily Mexican colonial life through the eyes of the artists and the people and places portrayed. Tickets can be purchased at the Museum or online at denverartmuseum.org. The audio tour, which is included with the purchase of a special exhibition ticket and has both adult and children's versions, focuses on the fascinating stories of the paintings and provides more detailed analysis of others.

Guided tours are also available for Painting a New World each Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday at 1:30 p.m., through July 25, 2004.
