at Artists on Santa Fe

DENVER, CO— Artists on Santa Fe invites the public to “Enjoy the View,” an exhibition of Lisa Calzavara’s abstract landscape paintings, on display May 14 – June 15, 2026, at 747 Santa Fe Drive. Inspired by the vital life forces of nature which emerge each spring, the works highlight her distinct style—vividly colored landscapes where intense shadow and brilliant light converge in a dynamic interplay of color and contrast. The show is open for visitors during regular gallery hours as listed below and during the following special events:

Opening Reception: Third Friday, May 15, 5 – 8 p.m.

Sundays on Santa Fe Art Walk: May 31, 12 – 4 p.m.

First Friday Art Walk: June 5, 5 – 8 p.m.

The paintings in this series convey both the energy and calm that coexist in nature’s most extraordinary places. The views reveal the dramatic natural features—the canyons, the gentle movement of streams, the changing contours along the shoreline, and the mesmerizing flow of waterfalls—and bring forth the sense memory of experiencing the outdoors.

“Through my work, I seek to evoke a range of emotions,” explains Calzavara. “The boldness of color and the extremes of shadow and illumination ignite a sense of excitement, as each scene presents a new discovery and fresh perspective. There is anticipation in witnessing how light continuously alters the environment, revealing unexpected beauty and depth. At the same time, the tranquil spaces within these natural landscapes invite a feeling of serenity, offering a peaceful retreat from the world.”

Calzavara has been creating art professionally for over 20 years. Trained in multiple mediums including oils, acrylics, encaustics and resins, she is able to design a variety of unique artwork. Her series span realism, abstraction, impressionism and surrealism. In addition to juried shows and exhibits, her work has been shown in The Colorado Gallery of the Arts, Littleton Historical Museum, The Arvada Center, Foothills Art Center, Spark Gallery, Lone Tree Arts Center, Sync Gallery, and D’art Gallery. She is currently a member of Artists on Santa Fe.
