In Praise of Trees Original work by Stephen Durbin and Kerry Corcoran
Durbin, a photographer living in Bozeman, and Corcoran, a printmaker and teacher, have collaborated on this unique exhibit exploring the nature of trees. The exhibit features some trees they care about, ones they know well and revisit in their imaginations, and in the world. They use gestures of the hand or technical controls; build up elements into a personal representation, or leave elements outside of the captured frame; complement with subjective colors or remove objective color. Despite these different approaches, they display a common interest, a shared appreciation and understanding of trees. In Praise of Trees will be on display until May 1, 2010.
The Gallatin Art Crossing is a unique outdoor sculpture exhibit located in downtown Bozeman, The exhibit hosts a variety of artwork, introducing viewers to many artisic approaches.
Exploring the Arts is an educational-based series sponsored by the Bozeman Public Library Foundation that combines artistic performance/demonstration with an educational component and/or audience interaction. Contact the Library Foundation for more information.
