This exhibition will be open from March 22 through July 8, 2018.
Mr. Aspevig is expected to attend, and has been made aware of our lodge support for this exhibition. A wide selection of Clyde’s paintings, spanning several decades, will focus on his depiction of Montana landscapes and the surrounding areas.
Clyde Aspevig’s personal and artistic horizons have unfolded expansively since his childhood on a Montana farm near the Canadian border. That period of geographical and cultural isolation was in retrospect a blessing for the artist he recalls. “Because I grew up in a vacuum in Montana, I wasn’t taught the clichés.”
