Opening Reception "Amanda Browder: End of the Infinite" Description:
The Montana Museum of Art & Culture presents "Amanda Browder: End of the Infinite" Join us for a conversation with MMAC visiting artist Amanda Browder at 5pm, Masquer Theatre followed by a reception for the artist in the PAR TV Center Lobby from 5:45pm-7pm.
Missoula-born, Brooklyn-based Browder is a fabric artist who is challenging, reviving and redefining 'soft' sculpture, which at times delves into the realm of large-scale public sculpture. Her work is about materials and craft, work ethic, community and created spaces. Recent projects include Hello Niagara!, a monumental, quilted waterfall draped over the Tobacco Warehouse in Brooklyn.
Browder is a former professor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and while in Chicago she co-founded the contemporary art podcast Bad at Sports. Browder has exhibited internationally at the Nakaochiai Gallery, Tokyo, Japan; Lothringer 14, Munich, Germany; White Columns, New York; Gallery 400-UIC, and The Hyde Park Art Center, Chicago. Last year, Amanda covered a building in her local neighborhood and received a grant from Brooklyn Arts Council and the NPArt.
