SUMMARY:Kristina Barker\, how old am i? how old are you?
DESCRIPTION:Kristina Barker\, how old am i? how old are you? \nPortland Art Museum Photography Council Lunchtime Talk Series \nWednesday\, August 26\, 2026\, 12 noon to 1pm \nPortland Art Museum\n1119 SW Park Ave.\nPortland\, OR 97205\nwww.portlandartmuseum.org / 503 226 2811\nCost: Free to the public. \nhow old am i? how old are you? \nMy mom was diagnosed at 54 years old with early-onset Alzheimer’s. I was only 29. For the past 13 years\, I have been photographing this experience in an effort to make sense of this consuming loss. At times\, my camera helps me feel more present with what is happening. Other times\, it’s a tool for me to disassociate. My camera became an emotional buoy to survive with. The grief I feel is tremendous and often overwhelming. \nThis collection is not only about losing someone in slow motion\, but also what do the feelings of grief look like? How do I honor my memories of her? What does loss look like? I see so much of how we care for my mom as a reflection of her caring for us as babies and small kids. It feels like a circle of patterns and memories. And I see so much of this experience reflected in the natural world. The collection includes images I’ve made of my mom\, family snapshots\, my journal entries\, and photos my mom took with her cellphone. \nGuided by her introspective sense of place and belonging\, Kristina examines themes around human consciousness reflected in nature. She investigates the idea of where our physical and non-physical worlds intertwine\, observing the bewildering experience of existing as a human. Her practice is heavily influenced by grief\, memory\, and connecting the state of dreaming as a critical part of human life. \nGrowing up in the sprawling San Francisco Bay Area\, Kristina followed her love for rural communities\, living and working in the Black Hills of South Dakota for over a decade. She now lives in Portland\, Ore. with her cat Dills. \nKristina has documented news and communities for The New York Times\, The Atlantic\, High Country News\, The Los Angeles Times\, Harpers\, Audubon Magazine\, Cosmopolitan\, Glamour\, and Mother Jones. \nHer work has received support from the International Women’s Media Foundation and the Portland (Ore.) Regional Arts & Culture Council. She has completed residencies at Jentel Arts (Wyo.)\, Arte Ventura (Spain)\, and Green Box Arts (Colo.). Early in her career\, she broke a 130-year run of men monopolizing the newsroom\, becoming the first female staff photographer and later the first female photo editor at The Rapid City (S.D.) Journal. During that time\, she was nominated twice for South Dakota’s Young Journalist of the Year. In 2023\, she was recognized for her work documenting the challenges of unpaid maternity leave with a Public Interest Award from the American Society of Magazine Editors. \nhttps://www.kristinabarker.com/ \n

SUMMARY:Rich Bergeman\, New Work and Old Favorites
DESCRIPTION:Rich Bergeman\, New Work and Old Favorites \nAugust 29 through October 28\, 2026\nArtist reception on Saturday\, August 29th from 1-4 pm. \nThe O’Brien Photo Gallery\n2833 Willamette\, Ste. B.\nEugene\, OR. 97405\nPhone: (541) 729-3572\nThe gallery will be open Tuesday through Friday from 1-5 pm.\nCall to be sure we are open or to reserve a special viewing time.\nhttps://www.waltobrien.net/the-o-brien-photo-gallery \nIt’s been about 10 years now since I converted a spare DSLR camera\nto infrared. Five camera conversions later and I’m still smitten by how\nIR has jazzed up my hitherto feeble efforts at landscape photography.\nI’ve been a diehard B+W photographer since the 1980s\, having burned\nfilm through a succession of 4×5\, 5×7\, 8×10 and pinhole cameras\,\nmostly aimed at the usual suspects—abandoned buildings\, old barns\,\nghost towns\, eerie interiors\, etc—printing in silver and then platinum. \nOccasional forays into straight landscape photography taught me how\nchallenging it is to master the black-and-white landscape print.\nInfrared has become my secret sauce. Those vexingly muddled middle\ngrays characteristic of green scenery when photographed in straight\nB+W hop off an IR print as sparkling highlights (sometimes too much\nso). And those pale blue skies that used to swallow up the clouds now\nshow up as deep rich tones\, setting off the clouds in brilliant fashion. \nAnd now\, voila´\, I’m a landscape photographer. \nhttps://richbergeman.zenfolio.com/

SUMMARY:Friderike Heuer\, Fragility
DESCRIPTION:Friderike Heuer\, Fragility \nOpen Now\nReception: Friday September 11\, 5:30 – 7:30 pm. \nColumbia Gorge Museum\n990 SW Rock Creek Dr.\nStevenson\, WA 98648\n(near Skamania Lodge) \nFragility: This 2025 series of photomontages grew out of ongoing concern about insufficient environmental protection. Fauna and flora in these landscapes – photographed predominantly in the Pacific Northwest – are endangered. Climate change and the renewed threat of industrial extraction of resources\, forests and minerals alike\, will do irreparable harm. I thought the ephemeral nature of clouds and the fragility of lace were fitting symbols for why we need step up in our efforts to turn things around.
