This show will feature new works by many of our artists at both our Livingston and Bozeman Montana locations. This exhibition celebrates the holiday season through the lens of winter and the winter solstice, a time when the world seems to pause in a serene embrace of darkness. This eclectic group of artists capture the essence of this magical season—reflecting on themes of introspection, warmth, and the deep connection to nature’s cycles. As we gather with loved ones and seek light in the coldest days of the year, we explore the interplay of light and shadow, echoing the transition from the bustling holiday spirit to the quiet moments of reflection that follow. Join us in this celebration of winter's beauty, where art invites us to embrace the stillness, honor traditions, and find solace in the gentle return of longer days. Let us rediscover the joy and peace that come when we pause to appreciate the world around us
El mundo invisible

Manifestations
| 12.13.2024 - 01.31.2025 |
Artists: June Glasson
In the past, June Glasson’s work often invited viewers to think about the relationship between how women are seen and how women choose to see or present themselves. With these new pieces, Glasson has been thinking about the material and symbolic labor that women often perform, whether voluntarily or not, both for themselves and for others. They are paintings about women’s work. These paintings move between the individual and the iconographic. Some are portraits of women that Glasson personally knows and cares for; others engage with the iconography of American nation-building and Western liberal democracy. The paintings in the “Aerie” series play around with the white female figure’s deployment as a stand-in for abstract ideals of nation, liberty, justice, democracy, etc.; whereas the individual figures in the “Never Done” series seem poised between play, rage, domestic work, protest, and maybe even witchcraft. Funnily enough, the abstract, iconographic world of the “Aerie” women becomes particularized and individualized, while the concrete individual worlds of “Never Done” become symbolic and iconographic.

Artists: Kat Kinnick
Kat Kinnick’s work is included in Narratives – Storytelling Through Art, an exhibition that brings together the distinct voices of five artists who craft stories in their art.
