"Rand Robbin" features the graphic and sculptural work of the recently deceased artist. Robbin, a 91次元 alumnus from the Flathead, is celebrated for his life of cattle ranching, artmaking, and writing. Largely unseen and unrecognized for most of his life, modernist Robbin was a prolific printmaker, sculptor, and writer.
As a master printmaker, Robbin specialized in intaglio processes including etching, aquatint, engraving, and collagraphy. He also worked in relief, carving and printing woodcuts and wood engravings. Much of his mature work was in mixed media, combining prints with drawing, free verse, and, as he wrote, “hand-painted critters and unexpected designing.”

, please join us for a free public opening reception for two concurrent exhibitions: “Reassessing Aden Arnold” and “In Sequence” by Geoffrey Stocking. Stocking will give an artist talk at 6 PM.
Aden Arnold (1901–1973) taught at UM for 30 years and was a transformative figure in bringing modernist visual arts to Montana. “Reassessing Aden Arnold” highlights his teaching, artistic practice, and lasting impact on the state’s modernist landscape.
Through vibrant non-objective paintings, UM alum Geoffrey Stocking explores color relationships and their influence on both the world and the people in it.
Thanks to Kinetic Convergence Dance for their performance in January, featuring choreography in dialogue with our recent exhibitions,"Standing in the River: Recent Paintings and Sculpture by Sara Mast" and "Unsettled Lands: Manette Bradford."
