Allen True's West
Regarded as Colorado's premier native-born artist of the early 20th century, True's long and distinguished artistic career included three distinct phases - as an illustrator, an easel painter, and finally as a muralist. The DAM's portion of the exhibition will highlight the middle phase of his work as an easel painter, featuring approximately a dozen oil paintings that reveal his stylistic development over a decade of work as a fine artist. Considered technically advanced for his years, True's art was unique and was possessed of a freedom and happy abandon rarely seen in American art.

True's longest creative period was as a muralist. In 1909, after studying in London under noted British muralist Frank Brangwyn, True returned to Colorado where in 1911 he received his first private mural commission and, in 1912, received his first public commission. By 1915, he had established himself as a muralist. Over the next 40 years, True worked on many public and private mural commissions including murals done for the Colorado, Wyoming and Missouri state capitols. In Denver, he received commissions for murals in the Colorado National Bank building, Denver Telephone Company building and the Denver Civic Center. Large-scale murals, mural studies, photographs and other details related to his mural work will be highlighted at the Colorado History Museum.

Allen True's West
While studying under Howard Pyle, True began to develop original painted illustrations for books and magazines, including The Saturday Evening Post, Collier's Weekly and Outing Magazine. One of the most compelling illustrations from this time included a series of paintings from Colorado accompanying his story, "The Mountain Pony," in the spring 1908 edition of Outing Magazine, in which True aims to "connect man, horse and wilderness together into one universal and symbiotic system," according to Hassrick in his essay entitled Allen True: The Early Years. This illustration and other True works including studio props, vintage magazines and books created between 1905 and 1915 will be on view on the 5th floor of the Denver Public Library.
