It’s a New Frontier
Rudi Broschofsky’s Contemporary Holograms of the Old West
How do you make traditional Western art subjects edgy? Something representative yet abstract and conceptual? Ask Rudi Broschofsky, an emerging artist whose work conveys the majesty of the Wild West with neon spray paint. It speaks to both the cowboy and the urban hipster. Son of the founders of Ketchum’s Broschofsky Galleries, Rudi is an integral role in the operations and development of the gallery as a partner and full-time employee while additionally managing to break out as an artist in his own right. Rudi is a fresh voice in the Valley and far beyond that, is gripped by the imagery and symbolism of the Old West, which he translates into a modern visual language of street art. He re-imagines the nostalgic iconography he has been raised on in a punch and innovative way. (Read More)

Western Pop, Andy Warhol & Billy Schenck
The dual exhibition Andy Warhol: Cowboys and Indians and Billy Schenck: Myth of the West joins the modern and contemporary American West through a shared vision born of nostalgia, romance and high style. It is comprised of fourteen original screen prints by Andy Warhol and twenty-nine paintings and serigraphs by Billy Schenck. The show’s iconic Pop art style and bold color provide a refreshing take on a region often associated with more staid and traditional representation. By introducing new audiences to the modern West through Warhol’s star power and name recognition, the Briscoe aims to expand visitors’ appetites for newer work and fresh eyes on a beloved American subject. The work of Billy Schenck is similarly accessible and engaging. A contemporary of Warhol’s, Schenck has dedicated his career to depicting Western subject matter, inviting his audiences to go further than even Warhol and to question comfortable assumptions many of us entertain about the region.
The Wild West
Through the lens of David Yarrow
Broschofsky Galleries in Ketchum is known for its western artists and collections from the likes of Gordon McConnell, Edward Curtis, Russell Young, and the late Russell Chatham among several other notable artists. These collectible works of fine art harken back to days gone by, a preservation of history, and sentiments of the West. However, recently, the gallery has brought the photography of internationally known fine art photographer David Yarrow into its space, broadening its reach into popular culture and 21st century fine art collectibles.
“I discovered David Yarrow and was taken by his photography,” says Rudi Broschofsky of Broschofsky Galleries. “Due to international restrictions and lockdowns, David Yarrow spent much of his time in the U.S. this past year. Inspired by the vast western landscape, Yarrow captured much of his wild west series during this time.” (Read More)
UNDER THE INFLUENCE
Abstract Expressionism’s Leading Women, Pat Steir and Joan Mitchell, Inspired by Modern Art Masters Hokusai and van Gogh.
Contemporary artists Pat Steir and Joan Mitchell share the noble status of leading women in the modern art world through their early connection to the intrinsic styles of Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai, known as Hokusai, and renowned abstract expressionist Vincent Van Gogh. As their life’s work unfolded throughout the decades, Steir and Mitchell harnessed a style, which is still reminiscent of their modern art master predecessors. (Read More).

I’m a Skater, Not a Cowboy
- Western Art’s Newest Jam
Not many people can say they’ve lived in a teepee, rocked a green mohawk while wearing a medical halo for their broken neck, boxed someone 100lbs above their weight class, competed in national snowboard competitions, and owned an Andy Warhol original since they were 22. My guess? There’s only one: Ketchum artist Rudi Broschofsky (Read More).

Warhol and the West
Warhol and the West is the first museum exhibition to fully explore Andy Warhol’s love of the West represented in his art, movies, attire, travel and collecting. Developed in a partnership with The Booth Western Art Museum in Cartersville, Ga. and the Tacoma Art Museum, Warhol and the West presents the full range of Western imagery Warhol produced. New scholarship examines how Warhol’s Western work merges the artist’s portrayal of celebrities with his interest in cowboys, American Indians and other western motifs. His work in the Western genre is immediately recognizable, impressive, daring, inspirational and sometimes confrontational. This body of work furthers our understanding of how the American West infiltrates the public’s imagination through contemporary art and popular culture.
