Artist Talk with John Henry Haseltine
Tuesday, October 29, 2024 // Reception at 5 PM with artist in the gallery followed by Artist Talk at 6 PM
Join us at the Yellowstone Art Museum for a FREE Artist Talk with John Henry Haseltine on Tuesday, October 29. A casual reception with a cash bar will begin at 5:00 PM; the Artist Talk begins at 6 PM.
Utilizing toys, puppets, and comics in addition to painting, sculpture, and performance, Haseltine explores how both self-produced folk art and kitsch mass production equally contribute to the legacy of western mythology. This exhibition examines the parallels between historical western expansion and contemporary gentrification in the region and presents the ways fabricated stories can be manipulated to present local and personal identities.
Alongside the exhibition of his artworks, Haseltine will bring his puppets to life with weekly theatre performances in the Charles M. Bair Gallery.
