Quotes:
“Put Barry Rose
together with terra cotta and you’ll find projects all over town,
ranging from community murals to high-profile restorations. And
though the Denver native works in other materials, from his own
studio work in ceramics to public art in bronze, he carries on the
city’s proud tradition of terra cotta architectural
detailing.” -- Mary Voelz Chandler--RMN, Sept.
27, 2008
“It’s hard to go any place in Denver
without seeing Barry Rose. He’s at the Denver Aquarium and in the
plaza west of Coors Field, He’s in the dolphin fountain adjacent to
East High School and near the entrance of the Denver Public Library
on Broadway. And there are many more of his artworks around the
region.” --Ashante
Jefferson--RMN, May 8, 2003
“Once he finished the
basic design for Coors Field, architect Brad Schrock turned his
attention to the fun side of his job—choosing the artistic doodads
that will grace Denver’s ballpark in a distinctively Colorado way.
His search led to the Capital Hill studio of artist Barry Rose,
Schrock remembers that bit of serendipity as
‘incredible’”. --Paul Hutchinson—Denver Post,
April 30. 1994
“Despite the fact
that size does seem to matter in this show, delicacy is hardly lost
in signature works by some artists such as Barry
Rose.” --Mary Voelz
Chandler—RMN, November 8, 2002
“Barry’s talents as
an artist are complimented by his ‘old-fashioned’ commitment to
quality of work and fairness in his business relationships. I could
not give him a higher recommendation.”
