Exhibit Schedule
Jay Rummell: A Montana Original
September 9 - November 4, 2000
Jay Rummell was a legendary painter and printmaker who
lived in Missoula almost all of his life. Born near Helena in 1939,
Jay was influenced by most of the movements that have touched artists in
Montana, including depression-era prints, Native American
storytelling, pioneer storytelling, the paintings of CM Russell, the
psychedelic poster art of the 1960's, and to a lesser degree, modern movements such as abstract
expressionism.
There are elements of nostalgia, folk art, and
psychedelia in almost all of Jay's work. Organized by the Art Museum of
Missoula; co-sponsored by MAGDA.
Ralph Weigmann: Echoes
September 9 - November 4, 2000
Ralph Weigmann's work represents a visual and symbolic
exploration of a specific landscape element. Trees have echoed beauty, strength,
longevity, will, the forbidden, the loss of innocence, and joy. Tree
images have been used to represent the whole spectrum of
human experience. The aim of these paintings is to
convey human and personal conditions of the body, mind, soul, and
spirit in the images of trees. The works echo a spectrum of life experience determined by and related to the conditions
of his life.
Curated by Hockaday Staff.

Working Hives
Missoula artist Pat Kikut
December 7, '01 - February 23, '02
This flexible exhibition travels and is stored in
three actual bee boxes. The artist has composed panels, which slide
in and out of the bee boxes and are reflective of the artist's examination of anthropological
phenomena.
The artist has been a practicing beekeeper
and studied bee behavior. Just like the bees that normally inhabit hives,
humans also group themselves together.
The panels depict members of three groups:
American Auto Association, Continental Frequent Flyer, and Costco. The artist is also a member of these three
groups.
Small Tales from the Big Sky
Missoula artist Edgar Smith
December 7, '01 - February 23, '02
This intimate exhibition of small-scale images
highlights an affinity for traditional painting techniques, as well as its thread to
storytelling.
Many of the works have an autobiographical
connection to childhood stories and surrealist ambiance, but emulate the
northern European painters of the 15th century.

December 7, 2001 - February 23, 2002
Naming the Place, Placing the Name
Jennifer Reifsneider.
March 1 - May 25, 2002
This exhibit addresses issues of communication, understanding and
effort.
In all of the works, the artist uses repetitive
gestures to create simple forms with subtle colors. Earlier works are concerned
primarily with the efficacy of labels and systems that translate the world into
comprehensible
terms.
Recent works employ destructive and reconstructive actions to accept or
negate a concept, the use of an object, or the aim of the activity. The cyclical
nature of the processes embraces the absurd structure of
nature-order and chaos-to create objects of sublime beauty.
