Beautiful and Engaging ArtworkOne of the guiding principles in building the new Lutheran Hospital was to provide an unparalleled patient experience. Floor-to-ceiling windows and quiet areas for respite were just the beginning.

Thoughtfully Curated Art Promotes HealingBeautiful and engaging artwork can help support a brighter, calming environment. The result is a unique collection of breathtaking, locally sourced artwork and sculptures throughout the hospital and grounds. We are grateful some of these wonderful works were provided by the generosity of donors, and for Design Studio Blue for their assistance in identifying artists, including Wheat Ridge Art League.

Suspended lobby sculpture | LynnelLocated in the front lobby, this stunning suspended piece is focused on architectural elements and the abundance of natural light.
Dancing in the Sun | Kevin RobbThis stainless steel sculpture is located outside the hospital entrance. The artist shares a deep connection with Lutheran Hospital having survived a life-threatening stroke thanks to the ICU care teams. Losing his ability to speak does not minimize his ability to communicate through artistic expression - his eyes shine bright and his smile warms all that he encounters.
Carnation City Millefleur | Kim DickeyIntensely assembled, glazed terracotta work consisting of many thousands of unique, yet seemingly uniform elements. Kim’s artwork has been nominated for inclusion in exhibition A New World: Women to Watch 2024 at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, DC. Named by Richard and Judy Billings.
