Millin MAM’s strategic focus areas — Artistic Innovation, Community Connection, and Organizational Excellence — are rooted in our mission and values and are interwoven into our funding goals. The vision that drives this inexorably forward is to generate creativity by presenting and commissioning challenging work, and bringing artists together with their audience. This spring brings an exciting multi-faceted project with exhibiting artist Holly Andres, made possible with the support of the Pleiades Foundation. Andres will travel from her current home 02 in Portland, OR, to her original home of Missoula for a week-long residency, creating a wide range of opportunities for her to interact with museum visitors and the University community. Andres will be presented at MAM with an opening reception, gallery talk, and a distinguished artist lecture co-sponsored by the University of Montana Jim and Jane Dew Visiting Artist Lecture Fund, and will visit with UM art classes. The residency will culminate with the commission of a one-of-a kind Missoula-oriented artwork that will become part of MAM’s Permanent Collection. MAM will have the opportunity to collect additional artwork from Andres’ exhibit with the collaboration and support of the Contemporary Collector’s Circle, MAM’s collection support group whose dues are devoted exclusively to acquisitions to the collection. Finally, by adding these artworks to the three Andres photographs and two video artworks already in the collection, MAM will circulate a traveling exhibit to expose the work to audiences across Montana through the Montana Art Gallery Directors Association.

  • Vietnam War Literature and the Vietnam
    Searching for Closure: Vietnam War Literature and the Veterans Memorial by Charles J. Gaspar That many soldiers returned home from the battlefields of Vietnam only to find themselves mired in another battle in their own country is well recognized now. A vignette which opens the Preface to Frederick Downs' compelling memoir, The Killing Zone, makes this point dramatically: In the fall of 1968, as I stopped at a traffic light on my walk to class across the campus of the University of 3enver, a man stepped up to me and said "Hi." Without waiting for my reply to his greeting, he pointed to the hook sticking out of my left sleeve. "Get that in Vietnam?" I said, "Yeah, up near Tam Ky, in I Corps." "Serves you right." As the man walked away, I stood rooted, too confused with hurt, shame, and anger to react. (n.pag. [vii]) This theme - that there was no easy closure for the trauma of the war experience for the individual soldier - recurs throughout many Vietnam War narratives. "Senator," a wounded veteran in James Webb's Fields of Fire, knows this truth and rebukes his father's cajolery with the assertion that "It'll never be over, Dad. Most of it hasn't even started yet" (392). Similarly, Tim O'Brien's hero in his first novel, Northern Lights, tells his brother only half jokingly, "Glad I didn't wear my uniform. Look plain silly coming home in a uniform and no parade" (24). Indeed, powerful recent narratives such as Larry Heinemann's Paco's Story and Philip Caputo's Indian Country have shifted the focus from the soldier in combat to the soldier as he attempts to reconnect with the mainstream of American society.

  • Thesis on Resilience and the Arts.Docx
    © Rebecca Quinn, 2014. Abstract This arts-based curriculum proposal was developed in response to a white paper entitled, Arts, Health and Well-Being Across the Military Continuum: White Paper and Framing a National Plan for Action, released in October of 2013. The military’s need for art is not a new concept, however — intentionality, timeliness and relevance were key to developing this curriculum that focuses predominantly on Military Resilience Training (MRT) or pre-deployment training. Preparing soldiers for war means preparing their families as well —therefore the “Art, Play and Recreation Unit” requires soldiers to work with their families in preparation for deployment through shared art experiences. Additionally, some curriculum units, such as the “Dark Theater Unit,” overlap with Veteran art programming and PTSD therapy activities. This enables the facilitator of MRT training to coordinate with veterans groups, while also providing civilians with a theatrical venue for understanding and supporting the returning soldiers’ experience(s). Emotional distancing from family and community compounds stressors in the reacclimatization process of a soldier’s homecoming. This curriculum calls for art exhibition, which can reconnect the soldier with his family, friends and community. Connectivity is just one area of whole- hearted living that will be addressed through this curriculum. Mindfulness, transitional fear, ambiguity within a war zone, development/maintenance of a growth mindset, archetypal influence and spiritual healing will be addressed as well. Arts activities readily convey evidence of transformational learning and introspective awareness. After the trauma of war, art therapists and healers working with soldiers/survivors have traditionally used diverse methods to generate reflective conversation, encourage healthy relationships and explore intra-personal understanding through a thematic art-making process.
