Take a walk on the creative side and step into the Holter Museum of Artâs High Gallery, to catch the Across the Divide 2021, featuring recent works by art professors at the University of Montana and Montana State University.
Oneâs attention is immediately riveted to the far wall.
Taking up the full back wall from floor to ceiling is âLoss (Front/Back),â an ocean of red tally marks marking some 100,000 COVID-19 deaths in America.
Across the gallery, one sees âRatljóstâ a series of four moody photos of sparse Icelandic winterscapes as darkness descends, lending them an unsettling aura.
