The experiment begins



One night a couple of artists were talking about starting an art gallery, or maybe a store, or an art studio. Or maybe all three. They had a space in mind, a cool location but in a building that was in disrepair and slated for demolition. It would take some work, but the experience could be rewarding. Or it could be a disaster. The only way to find out is to try.

Teton Artlab
opened September 1, 2008. The opening exhibit was titled, "Interaction 1" and featured sculpture by Sam and Jenny Dowd, photography by Lisa Walker and Tristan Greszko, paintings by Travis Walker, sculpture by Ben Roth, prints by Tom Woodhouse, and mixed media art by Sharon Trigg and Craig Spankie. The opening was a great success, although the collaborative interactive work, "Teton Petting Zoo" had to be scrapped because of complications with the "Bungie Eagle" exhibit.
