Oh man.

Recently, for The Magazine, I wrote an article on how Denver is addicted to Big Art. That is art that is oversized. Click on the tag below labeled 'Big Art' to see the pics of what I am talking about.

And now I read this:

Playful Denver sculpture a reminder of our connectedness

A blast of color, a dash of fun and a hint of childhood nostalgia combine in an eye-catching 42-foot-tall sculpture taking form across from the Denver Performing Arts Complex on the northeast corner of 14th and Curtis streets.

The $250,000 work was created by Roberto Behar and Rosario Marquardt, a Miami-based husband- and-wife team responsible for "The Peace Project," an installation on view through July 1 at the Museum of Contemporary Art/Denver.

Inspired in part by Lawrence Argent's giant blue bear, which is within eyeshot down 14th Street, and Donald Lipski's sculpture of a toy horse on a red chair outside the Denver Central Library, this piece continues a growing playful streak in the city's public art.

"We like to see it as a kind of present for the kids of Denver but also for the kid within each of us," Behar said.

The aluminum sculpture, fabricated by a company near Beacon, N.Y., consists of two components, the most prominent a tower of oversized children's blocks that spells "All Together Now."

"If we want to do something worthwhile, the only way that we're going to do it is together," Behar said. "So 'All Together Now,' you can see it in many different ways, and we don't pretend to have the answer to what it may mean to you or to somebody else."

The tower stands in the middle of a sidewalk several feet from a yellow bench that cantilevers from the Curtis Hotel's west wall, which is adorned in yellow faceted panels inspired by the tiles on the exterior of the Denver Art Museum's 1971 building.

Behar and Marquardt want the piece - which is painted in bright primary colors to offset the tans and browns around it, to become a landmark - especially for people attending events at the arts center.

"The idea is to create something that is spectacular enough for us to remember it," Behar said. "So we can connect to it and say, 'Let's meet at the building blocks.' 'Let's meet at the yellow corner."'
