Denver Art Museum, King Tut Exhibit

Professor Kendra Gale and 15 students from the RAP toured the Denver Art Museum’s King Tut Exhibit. This exhibit, which includes more than 100 objects from King Tutankhamun’s tomb, provided a unique opportunity to consider how culture impacts the composition and form of symbols and icons. Students enrolled in the Visual Literacy course and others in the RAP interested in art were able to build their knowledge of visual symbolism and discuss the interesting cultural forms represented in the exhibit.
