transpondor 8.05, public
reception
The Armory Center for the Arts and
One Colorado present transpondor 8.05
an outdoor installation by artist Jason
Rogenes. As part of the ongoing Art
Over Your Head series, which features
art works that are incorporated into the
public spaces at One Colorado,
Rogenes was invited to create a site-
specific installation. His sculptures
and installations are made from
packing materials and light, infusing
the mundane with a sense of fantasy
and wonder. The installation will be
located in the stairwell tower in the
courtyard of One Colorado next to
Gordon Biersch (located on Colorado
Boulevard between Union Street, Fair
Oaks Avenue and DeLacey Street).
This is the third installation in the 2005

public reception will be held Saturday,
August 6, 7-9 p.m.
