MontanaPBS Team to Film Western Art Installation Near ‘Some Like it Hot’ Site
MISSOULA, Montana – World-famous cowboy artist Charlie Russell (1864-1926), apparently liking it “hot” – or at least sandy, will return from the “Great Divide” this weekend to pose on Coronado Beach with some of his 1923 friends, albeit a little stiffly. Beginning at dawn, Friday, Aug. 21, MontanaPBS will be filming acclaimed Western artist Thom Ross as he installs a cast of life-sized, painted plywood cutouts of 1920s characters on Coronado Beach. After they have been installed, MontanaPBS will film the ways in which sunbathers, surfers and dog walkers, among others, interact with the art. The installation is part of a MontanaPBS documentary-film project titled “C. M. Russell and the American West,” which will premiere in Montana the fall 2016 and nationally in 2017.
