tinworks montana matthew barney redoubt 1234762840

Tinworks Art, the Montana-based nonprofit that revived Agnes Denes's "Wheatfield" land art in Bozeman last year, has acquired the historic Rialto theater in downtown Bozeman. The organization will inaugurate the venue with screenings of Matthew Barney's 2018 film "Redoubt," running from January 31 through February 1, with two showings daily Thursdays through Sundays. The Rialto, built in 1908 as a post office and converted to a theater in 1924, was donated to Tinworks and joins its two-acre complex of former warehouses and agricultural buildings that have hosted exhibitions by artists including Stephen Shore, Lucy Raven, and Theaster Gates.

Fast-rising Montana art organisation to take over century-old theatre

Tinworks Art, a non-profit contemporary art space in Bozeman, Montana, is expanding from its original industrial campus to the historic Rialto Theater downtown. Opening November 21, Tinworks at Rialto will debut with Matthew Barney's 2018 film *Redoubt*, on view until February 1, 2026, marking the organization's first year-round venue for installations, talks, screenings, and performances. The Rialto, which opened as a theater in 1924, was donated to Tinworks by its previous owners. Additionally, Tinworks is restoring its deteriorating mill building on the northeast campus, set to open in October 2026, which will add flexible gallery spaces, a visitor center, and offices, extending programming beyond its current June-to-October schedule.

Women’s Work: The art of Dana Boussard (museum exhibition)

In 1973, three pioneering women artists—Lela Autio, Dana Boussard, and Nancy Erickson—proposed an exhibition of their soft sculpture at the University of Montana in Missoula, but were denied because their work was dismissed as "women's work." Undeterred, they staged the show in the empty Carnegie Library building in 1974, and a year later the Missoula Art Museum (MAM) was founded. Now, MAM's special exhibition "Women's Work" celebrates the museum's 50th anniversary by featuring works from these three artists, including three pieces by Dana Boussard: "The Rialto" (1971), "Sister" (1970), and "Another Time, Another Place" (1970). The exhibition honors the radical spirit of the original 1974 show and the fiber-art movement, which gained momentum alongside the women's movement and feminist art.
