SUMMARY:Beast of Our Time Film Screening & Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, June 13th at 6pm\, the Livingston Depot Center and Elk River Arts and Lectures Host a Special Screening of the film\, Beast of Our Time\, within the exhibit gallery. The film will be followed by commentary and discussion with the film’s director\, Maikke Middleton. Grizzly expert and author Doug Peacock as well as author and biologist Susan Consolo-Murphy will join the discussion moderated by Marc Beaudin. \nThe evening will explore humankind’s current and future effects on the grizzly while being physically surrounded by the imagery of our complex\, and often fraught\, history with bears. \nThe community is invited to delve deeper into the history of the grizzly during a guided gallery tour on Saturday\, June 14th at 10am with historian Lee Silliman\, curator of the featured exhibit. \nThe Beast of Our Time\, a 28-minute\, award-winning documentary produced by Save the Yellowstone Grizzly\, is an unflinching inquiry into the relationship between climate change and grizzly bears. The film\, directed by Maaike Middleton\, is narrated by Academy Award-winning actor Jeff Bridges and scored by pianist Bill Payne of Little Feat. A partnership between the Depot and Elk River Arts & Lectures brings a screening of the film on June 13th at 6pm that will be followed by a discussion on grizzly biology and conservation. \nMaaike Middleton is the director of two films by Save the Yellowstone Grizzly: “The Beast of Our Time: Grizzly Bears and Climate Change” and “Return of the Grizzly.” Born in The Netherlands and raised in Montana\, she has filmed wildlife globally\, including pumas in Patagonia and Amur tigers in Russia. Maaike is dedicated to impactful storytelling and her work includes collaborations with Smithsonian\, Nat Geo\, Netflix\, BBC\, PBS\, and Arte. \nSue Consolo-Murphy\, author of “The Bears of Grand Teton: A Natural and Cultural History\,” retired in 2019 as Chief of Science and Resource Management at Grand Teton National Park. With a 40-year career in the National Park Service\, she held various roles including cultural resources chief and editor of Yellowstone Science. \nDoug Peacock is an author known for books like Was It Worth It? and Grizzly Years\, reflecting his passion for defending wilderness areas and the grizzly bear. A Green Beret medic in Vietnam and the inspiration for a character in The Monkey Wrench Gang\, he writes extensively on wilderness issues. Peacock co-founded Round River Conservation Studies\, aiding in the preservation of 20 million acres\, and Save the Yellowstone Grizzly\, which advocates for grizzly bears in the lower 48 states. \nAll are welcome to join the screening of “Beast of Our Time” and panel discussion Friday\, June 13th starting at 6pm. The event is free and light refreshments will be provided. \nFeatured Exhibit: “The Grizzly Bear Illustrated: 1828 – 1943”\nUrsus Horribilis: The Grizzly Bear Illustrated is curated by Lee Silliman and explores the complex interactions between humans and grizzly bears on the early western frontier. Through \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nworks by 19th and 20th-century artists like Karl Bodmer and Frederic Remington\, the exhibit reflects an era in the tangled relationship between humans and this iconic symbol of the American West. A gallery tour and illustrated lecture will bring the exhibit to life on June 14th at 10am. \nCurator Lee Silliman will vividly sketch\, using vintage imagery and anecdote\, the story of the North American grizzly bear on the western frontier. Indeed\, grizzly stories yielded a wealth of information about the demeanor and strengths of the grizzly bear as it related to other animals and to humans. Also\, the artistic creation and distribution of some prints is a short story in itself. \nThe guided gallery tour and illustrated lecture begins at 10am Saturday\, June 14th. This free event features historian and exhibit curator Lee Silliman. Light refreshments will be provided. \nThe Livingston Depot Museum \nThe historic Livingston Depot Center opens the seasonal railroad history museum Memorial Day. The beautifully restored Northern Pacific Railroad station\, dating back a century\, is a remarkable exhibit in itself.
