Book Description

September 2000
A feast for Monte Dolack fans, this celebration of his artwork at mid-career gathers 178 color reproductions of posters, paintings, and working sketches that were created from the 1970s to 2000.

Included are logos and advertising pieces for performers, "hippie capitalist" and other businesses, posters for nonprofit organizations, the wryly humorous "invaders"; poster series and works on wildlife, on magic, and more.

Much of Dolack's art reflects the American West (in reality as well as in legend) and his home state of Montana. His distinctive style and universal messages long have attracted collectors (and imitators) around the United States and abroad.

Filmmaker/editor Annick Smith contributes a personal essay on Dolack’s life and career from her dual perspectives as friend and fan. Candid photographs of Dolack over the years illustrate this section. Margaret C. Kingsland, former director of Montana Committee for the Humanities, analyzes Dolack's images, subjects, and approach.

Offering appreciations of Monte Dolack’s work are fellow artists, collectors, and friends Anthony Acerrano, Rudy Autio, Dana Boussard, Doug Chadwick, Ivan Doig, Kay Ellerhoff, Dan Kemmis, Milo Miles, Dorothy Hinshaw Patent, and Pat Williams.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Monte Dolack Pictorial, May 30, 2001
By 
This review is from: Monte Dolack: The Works (Hardcover)
This is a near complete history of the works of Monte Dolack, who is probably one of the most well-known artists in Montana (not far behind the late Charlie Russell). Along with a small amount of historical text, this book includes nice reproductions of most of Dolack's posters, prints, lithographs and original works, beginning with his early advertising posters conceived for local business and concerts in the 1970's and 1980's, and continuing with his movie posters, his invader series of colorful and humorous depictions of animals and fish in mischievous settings, his Montana landscapes with their fascinating perspectives and vivid colors, his environmentally-related outdoor scenes, and his thought-provoking still lifes. The reader of "The Works" will get an good insight into Monte Dolack and his work, so much so that the reader will want to rush to Dolack's Missoula, Montana gallery and buy up all of his output.

5.0 out of 5 stars Anthology for Dolack fans, February 23, 2006
This review is from: Monte Dolack: The Works (Hardcover)
My husband and I are University of Montana Alums and are Illinois' biggest Monte Dolack fans. Whenever I'm homesick for Montana, I get this book out and let my mind drift through the pages. With his "Invader Series" to his sweeping works showing the varied Montana landscape, Dolack captures all that is grand about his subject matter. This book is an intimate comprehensive look at Dolack's work and leaves one eager for new works to come!
