Butterfield at the Center



The Jackson Hole Center for the Art has it's first piece of sculpture on the northern Cache street side. It is by Montana artist Deborah Butterfield, who is known for her gestural sculptures of horses using wood and materials often found near her ranch/studio in Bozeman. Several of her horses graced the Art Association's gallery (JH Artspace) in 2005, and though it was a small show, many locals still talk about it as one of the best exhibitions ever shown in the valley.

Here she explains her philosophy about art and, um, why her horses have no genitals:



You'd think she had her own website, but no.

Christian Art is about torturing people and makes her sick.

More on her work here.

FIELD NOTES: Tristan sent this over the other day about the artist Jim Denevan's work in the desert:
