Moscow Contemporary offers two exhibits that connect your audience directly with fire and forest issues impacting millions.
David Paul Bayles "Sap In Their Veins" combines intimate portraits of members of logging communities with oral histories to explore the intricacies of a livelihood that is literally going up in smoke. Large format images from the "Falling Trees" series complete the exhibit.
"Facing the inferno, the Wildfire Photography of Kari Greer" presents work by one of the only female Red Card certified wildfire photographers. Her access, on the frontlines of fires for extended periods, creates a bond with the firefighters and an unmatched knowledge of her subject. With 10s of millions of acres burning, "Facing the Inferno" is the only exhibit on the topic providing in-depth information and stunning presentation aesthetics.
Moscow Contemporary Touring Exhibit Service creates exhibits at a reasonable rental fee, fabricated to the highest museum standards. These two exhibits are equally at home in an art context as they are in a natural/cultural history context. Exhibits are framed and crated and come complete with didactic content and educational outreach plans.

About Moscow Contemporary. The University of Idaho ceased operations of its Prichard Art Gallery on August 1, 2021. The staff and supporters raised Moscow Contemporary from the ashes to create a new nonprofit (pending) to fulfill the enrichment and educational needs of the community. To our knowledge we are the only non-collecting academic art space to attempt to make this transition. Touring exhibits are but one means we will employ to reach audiences.
