SUMMARY:Gilman Contemporary Presents: Dana Hart-Stone\, Western Charms
DESCRIPTION:In his show Western Charms\, Dana Hart-Stone creates colorful d
 igital paintings from found vintage photographs\, each composition repeatin
 g in rhythmic glimpses of everyday American lives. Raised in Montana\, Hart
 -Stone draws on his own childhood spent exploring abandoned homesteads. The
  work is inspired not only by the settlers but by the Indigenous people the
 y displaced\, particularly the geometry of gift-giving quilts and the texti
 les that hold collective memory. Of his work\, he writes:\\n\\n“My work c
 omes from wandering the vast\, history-rich countryside of Eastern Montana 
 as a child. On those walks I found abandoned homesteads left with evidence 
 of the pioneers who'd settled there: cracked boots\, torn lace curtains\, r
 usted barbed wire. These objects suggested hard lives\, and they left me wa
 nting to know more.\\n\\nOne memory from that same childhood has stayed wit
 h me even longer. After a basketball tournament in my hometown\, nine Nativ
 e American women walked onto the court\, each carrying a folded gifting sta
 r quilt\, laid open across the painted lines for everyone to see. One by on
 e\, the winning coaches were invited out to choose a quilt as a gift from t
 he home team community. The generosity of that moment\, giving away somethi
 ng so beautiful\, stayed with me.\\n\\nAbout 40 years later\, I started col
 lecting vintage American vernacular photography\, and that same curiosity r
 eturned. I began making work from those brief clicks of the shutter\, aimed
  at people simply going about their lives while building a nation. The circ
 ular\, repeating structures in this work trace back to that basketball cour
 t. It is\, by nature\, about unknown America.” - Hart-Stone
