SUMMARY:Rich Bergeman\, The Land Remembers: The Rogue River Wars
DESCRIPTION:Rich Bergeman\, The Land Remembers: The Rogue River Wars \nAugust 5 – October 15\, 2024 \nThe National Historic Oregon Trail Interpretive Center\n2267 Hwy 86\nBaker City\, Oregon 97841\nhttps://www.nps.gov/places/000…\n(541) 523-1843\nOpen daily 10am-5pm \n“The Land Remembers” features over 40 black-and-white prints by Corvallis photographer Rich Bergeman that explore the Southern Oregon landscapes where the Rogue River Indian Wars were fought 170 years ago. \nOne of the bloodiest–and yet mostly overlooked–of the Indian conflicts to occur in the Oregon Territory\, the Rogue River Wars were characterized by persistent fighting between local tribes and the miners and settlers who moved into southwest Oregon in the early 1850s. \nUsing an infrared-sensitive camera\, Bergeman spent two years traveling from the Rogue Valley to the Oregon Coast to photograph scenes at or near the sites of battles\, peace parlays\, massacres and other significant events that occurred during the war years of 1851-56. Bergeman said his goal was not to document specific historic sites\, but rather “to bring the largely forgotten war back into our collective consciousness through a reflective study of the landscapes that played host to those tragic events.” \nIn addition to the photographs\, the story of the war years is retold through wall text\, maps and gallery guides\, as well as an accompanying book available in the Lone Pine Mercantile at the Interpretive Center. \nThe source of the conflict was the convergence of two separate events–the discovery of gold in the region and the passage of the Oregon Donation Land Claim Act. The various tribes who had populated the area for centuries saw their homelands suddenly invaded as settlers and miners streamed in. Conflict inevitably followed\, with a cycle of fighting and truces between 1851 and 1854 that eventually erupted into all-out war involving the U.S. Army. It finally ended in 1856 with the forced removal of the Rogue Valley and South Coast tribes to reservations at Siletz and Grand Ronde. \nBergeman is a retired instructor of journalism and photography at Linn-Benton Community College in Albany. The 75-year-old photographer has been exhibiting his work throughout the Northwest since the 1980s. Over the past two decades he has focused primarily on portraying forgotten Northwest histories through photographs of what’s been left behind. His portfolios can be seen at richbergeman.zenfolio.com\, and in book form at blurb.com

SUMMARY:Ken Hochfeld - Precipice
DESCRIPTION:Ken Hochfeld – Precipice \nAugust 6 – September 20 \nWalters Cultural Arts Center\n527 E. Main Street\nHillsboro\, Oregon 97124\nThe Walters Gallery is free and open from 9 am to 9 pm\, Monday through Thursday and 9 am to 5 pm\, Fridays.\nhttps://www.hillsboro-oregon.g… \nFeaturing: Portland photographer Ken Hochfeld\, Pacific Northwest collage and mixed media artists Kit S. Carlton\, Sam Marroquin\, and Tyler Brumfield. \nThese four artists share diverse perspectives on the impact of the human relationship with our fragile and changing environment. \nHochfeld’s photographs will be selections from his collection “Rock(s)”\, a tribute to Terry Toedtemeier. \n“Terry Toedtemeier comes to the minds of Pacific Northwest photographers who think about photographs of basalt. Terry’s love for the land\, knowledge of geology\, and his personal expressions have had a meaningful impact on me as an artist. This work represents a tribute to a friendship I regrettably never experienced. \nBasalt is an extrusive igneous rock that flooded the Pacific Northwest 17 to 6 million years ago. Best known for dramatic columns\, we also see its subsequent forms in the Pacific Northwest\, much of which have been revealed as a result of the great Missoula floods that swept through eastern Washington and the Columbia River Gorge various times more than 12\,000 years ago. Dark gray and black in color and rich in an array of tones and shapes\, I think basalt tells its stories best in bright sun. Additionally\, after much of the year under water\, lakeside basalt\, when exposed to the summer sun takes on an unusual and rich light gray hue. Basalt can also exhibit fantastic color derived from lichens and moss that find special places to thrive. Madrone Wall Park near the Clackamas River in Carver\, Oregon is a prime place to see these surreal colors at their very finest. \nOthers have written about rocks in ways that best describe my thoughts while making these images: \n“I take another look at the stone\, run my fingertip over the meticulous brushstrokes\, and realize that nothing ever returns to time unless it is stored in mute\, voiceless objects; rocks do tell tales after all.”\nStefan Hertmans\, War and Turpentine \n“Everything dreams. The play of form\, of being\, is the dreaming of substance. Rocks have their dreams\, and the earth changes….”\nUrsula K. Le Guin\, The Lathe of Heaven \n\nWith this work I hope to share the pure artistry\, the form\, the brushstrokes\, and the various tales and dreams of Rock(s) for us all to imagine. I like to think Terry would have approved.” \nKen Hochfeld \nwww.kenhochfeld.com
