SUMMARY:Jinhyun Cha at Blue Sky Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Jinhyun Cha\, Post-Border Line \nFebruary 7–March 3\, 2019First Thursday opening reception: February 7\, 6:00–9:00 PMArtist talk: Thursday\, February 7\, 5:00 PM \nBlue Sky Gallery 122 NW 8th AvenuePortland\, Oregon 97209 USA503-225-0210Tuesday – Sunday\, 12 – 5 pmFirst Thursday 6 – 9 pmbluesky@blueskygallery.orghttp://www.blueskygallery.org/All Blue Sky events and programs are free and open to the public. \nPost-Border Line by South Korean photographer Jinhyun Cha is a visual contemplation of the 160-mile border between North and South Korea and the ideologies that overlap within it. The Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) was created as a result of Cold War interventions in the region by the Soviet Union and the United States that led to the Korean War. The DMZ now functions as a consumer-driven tourist destination\, with “Peace Parks” and “Unification Observatories” with entrance fees\, souvenirs for purchase\, and photo opportunities. For the artist\, this commodification of conflict is at odds with this war’s fraught legacy. Through his thoughtfully composed black-and-white images taken within the DMZ\, Cha presents a counter-narrative that reflects upon “the calamity caused by ideological conflicts and boundaries between remembering and forgetting.” \nJinhyun Cha (b. 1973) is a documentary photographer based in South Korea. He earned an MFA in Photography from Kyung-sung University and completed a doctoral course at Hong-ik University. His first photography project\, Portraits of 108\, won the grand prize in the first Sangsang-madang Korean Photographer’s Fellowship in 2008\, and the Asian Pioneer Photographer Award at the 6th Dali International Photo Festival in China in 2015. In 2016\, he was chosen as a finalist in the Daegu Photography Biennale in Korea. In 2017\, his work was exhibited at the Go-Eun Museum of Photography in Busan and in 2018 at FotoFest Biennale in Houston\, Texas. This is Cha’s first solo exhibition of Post-Border Line in the United States. \n

SUMMARY:Jewish Ghetto Photographers: Reimagining the Holocaust lecture at Portland Art Museum
DESCRIPTION:Jewish Ghetto Photographers: Reimagining the HolocaustAlan Ostrow Memorial Lecture SeriesA lecture by Judith Cohen\, Chief Acquisitions Curator\, United States Holocaust Memorial Museum\, Washington\, DC \nTuesday\, February 5th\, 6 PM \nPortland Art MuseumWhitsell Auditorium1219 SW Park Avenue\, Portland\, OR 97205www.portlandartmuseum.org503 226 2811 \nThis lecture is FREE but reservations are recommended.To reserve\, visit: portlandartmuseum.org \nThe vast majority and best known Holocaust photography was taken by German photographers. These photos include such iconic images as the Warsaw ghetto boy and the selections at Auschwitz. Therefore\, we largely visualize the Holocaust through Nazi eyes. However\, there also exists a considerable corpus of Jewish ghetto photography taken both by professional and amateur photographers. These photographs not only capture aspects of the ghetto hidden to the Germans\, but also show layers of ambiguity and nuance that the official photos miss. How do these photographs differ from the better known Nazi photographs? Does it matter who took the photo or just what appears in the image? \nOrganized in conjunction with the exhibitions Memory Unearthed: The Lodz Ghetto Photographs of Henryk Ross (Portland Art Museum) and The Last Journey of the Jews of Lodz (Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education) both on view through February 24\, 2019. \nAbout the Alan Ostrow Memorial Lecture Series: Established in 1983 to honor the memory of Alan Ostrow\, today this Portland Art Museum endowed biennial lecture series aims to highlight artists and other creative thinkers working in or exploring photography based practices.

SUMMARY:Irina Rozovsky and Manjari Sharma at Blue Sky Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Irina Rozovsky and Manjari Sharma\, Talking Pictures \nJanuary 3–February 3\, 2019 First Thursday opening reception: January 3\, 6:00–9:00 PMArtist talk: Irina Rozovsky and Manjari Sharma: Saturday\, February 2\, 3:00 PM \nBlue Sky Gallery 122 NW 8th AvenuePortland\, Oregon 97209 USA503-225-0210Tuesday – Sunday\, 12 – 5 pmFirst Thursday 6 – 9 pmbluesky@blueskygallery.orghttp://www.blueskygallery.org/ \nOriginally commissioned by curator Mia Fineman for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York\, Talking Pictures is a photographic conversation between Manjari Sharma and Irina Rozovsky. Over a five-month period surrounding the 2017 US election\, the two artists exchanged iPhone photos in real time using a call-and-response format. Living different lives in different cities\, Sharma and Rozovsky approached the exchange as a form of modern-day letter writing. Their improvisational images reveal personal chronologies that exist within public and private spaces and respond to current political tensions. Most importantly\, the dialogue is focused on the creation of new life at such a precarious time\, as the artists\, both pregnant during this project\, conclude the 122 image conversation with the arrival of their newborns. \nIrina Rozovsky was born in Moscow and raised in the United States. She is currently based in Athens\, Georgia. Her work has been exhibited internationally at venues including Smith College in Northampton\, MA; Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts at Harvard University in Cambridge\, MA; Breda International Photo Festival in Breda\, The Netherlands; Philadelphia Museum of Art in Philadelphia\, PA; Haggerty Museum of Art in Milwaukee\, WI; Chelsea Art Museum in New York\, NY; Southeast Museum of Photography in Daytona Beach\, FL; and Noorderlicht Festival in Groningen\, The Netherlands. Rozovsky participated in Light Work’s Artist-in-Residence Program in August 2012. \nManjari Sharma is an internationally published photo-based artist born and raised in Mumbai\, India\, and currently residing in southern California. In addition to many private collections\, Sharma’s work is represented in the permanent collection of the Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston\, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York\, and has been showcased in solo and group exhibitions worldwide. Sharma holds a bachelor’s degree in Visual Communication from S.N.D.T University in Mumbai and a BFA in Still Photography from Columbus College of Art and Design in Columbus\, Ohio.

SUMMARY:Jesse Rieser at Camerawork Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Jesse Rieser\, The Changing Landscape of American Retail \nFebruary 2 – March 1\, 2019 \nCamerawork Gallery301 N. Graham Street\, Portland\, OR 97227Located in Lorenzen Conference Center – Legacy Emanuel Medical Center Campus.9am – 6pm\, Monday-Saturday\, Sunday\, 10am-4pmFree off street parking available\, Stair and elevator access\, TriMet Routes 4\, 24 and 44www.TheCameraworkGallery.orgwww.Facebook.com/cameraworkgallery503-701-5347Event is free and open to the public with ADA access \nBeginning in 2015\, The Changing Landscape of American Retail is an ongoing documentation of the shift from traditional brick-and-mortar locations where we once socialized and interacted with our community to the stark and generic structures that house shipping\, fulfillment\, call\, and server centers\, now essential for E-commerce.Like memories\, familiar retail entities are fading away. Today\, they stand as modern-day ruins and architectural artifacts that reach into the not-so-distant past of our own maturing interests and evolving identities. \nToys “R” Us brings back of memories of avoiding my brother’s aerial assaults of red dodge balls and Nerf guns while simultaneously ignoring my mother’s plea to stop tearing into brand-new boxes of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle action figures and Lego Pirate sets. \nThe Battlefield Mall was once a central meeting spot for my junior high peers— anchored by the food court and Aladdin’s Castle arcade. Here\, a myriad of sights and smells trigger the memory to act as a roadmap for navigating the mall. Orange Julius produced the sweet scent of Florida citrus in Southern Missouri; there was the salty cheese sauce wafting from Potato Plus; and the fragrant cinnamon-sugar of Auntie Anne’s baked pretzels. The nearby arcade elicits a sensory transaction when I’m greeted by the flashing lights of Street Fighter II\, manic electronic beeps\, purple geometric carpet\, and the oddly unique odor of stale popcorn mixed with the metallic scent of quarters tucked into my front pocket. \nDuring high school and college\, I spent hours at the Best Buy listening stations\, previewing new music releases from my favorite artists. Today\, I laugh when thinking back to a time when a Circuit City sales associate begrudgingly answered my product question by reading the back of the box\, all before returning to watch Shaq and Kobe’s Lakers in the NBA Finals. It makes sense\, Circuit City was known for having the best televisions and poor customer service. \nBy 2012\, Circuit City closed their doors. Toys “R” Us folded in the spring of 2018\, and Best Buy continues to shutter underperforming stores. Additionally\, arcades and food courts are endangered as small- and medium-sized “Class B” malls are closing all over the U.S. \nLike most Americans\, I love the ease and product availability of Amazon and online retailers. I order my toothpaste with a click of a button and can obtain work supplies from the comfort of my sofa. My concerns are rooted in our recent pattern of isolationism and shrinking human interaction. Store closings feel like a continuation of our declining thoughtful conversations\, empty playgrounds\, and sense of community as we opt for a digital facsimile. We are no longer previewing music and getting recommendations on new releases in person and in retail shops. We will no longer meet our friends in food courts. And there will never be an opportunity to watch an NBA game with an uninformed and complacent Circuit City employee. \nABOUT THE ARTIST Jesse Rieser’s exploration and celebration of the elements that often go overlooked in our day-to-day lives can be traced back to his midwestern upbringing in Springfield\, Missouri. At ASU he majored in photography and art history while attending the Herberger Institute of Art and Design. Now working and teaching in Phoenix\, he is internationally exhibited and in 2018\, a judge for the prestigious One Club’s interdisciplinary Young Guns award. \nHe has been interviewed and his personal works have been featured in the NY Times Lens Blog\, Time\, National Geographic\, Buzzfeed\, NPR\, Fast Company\, Wired\, The Guardian\, and Refinery29. \nThese works\, editorial assignments\, and advertising commissions have been celebrated by the Communication Arts Annual (2X)\, PDN Annual (6x)\, American Photography Annual (8x)\, Photolucida’s Critical Mass Top 50 (3x)\, an Art Director’s Club Young Gun (Top 50 International Creative Under 30)\, and a recipient of the Magenta Foundation’s Flash Forward award in 2012 \nwww.JesseRieser.com \n

SUMMARY:Catherine Haley Epstein\, My Nose Made Me Do It
DESCRIPTION:Catherine Haley Epstein\, My Nose Made Me Do It \nFebruary 1st – March 29\, 2019Opening Reception: February 1st from 6-8pm. \nPushdot Studio2505 SE 11th Avenue\, Suite 104Suite 104 – in the Ford Building\, enter on Division StreetPortland\, OR 97202Mon-Fri. 8:30am to 5:00pm\, free admission \nCatherine Haley Epstein is an award-winning writer\, artist\, designer and curator. Over the past eight years she has pioneered the incorporation of scent into her visual and conceptual art practice. The effect has been an entirely new and more abstract dynamic to her work. \nMixing scent requires chance\, knowledge and courage. In this installation\, “My Nose Made Me Do It\,” the artist has combined visuals with which she has been obsessed for over twenty years in the same manner she has combined scent materials – with love\, patience and curiosity. The installation is a weaving of philosophy\, art history and multimedia where scent\, visuals\, text and sculpture become distilled tales of her nose journey to date. \nMost recently Catherine attended the Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference at Middlebury College in Vermont\, and spoke at the Society of Illustrators in New York on her writing and scent practice. She is a multimedia artist and has recently done educational programming around scent at the Portland Art Museum\, and with Public Annex\, who serves community artists with disabilities. In 2016 she was selected to exhibit her experimental fragrance project at the inaugural AIX Scent Fair at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles. She is the recipient of the 2017 Perfumed Plume Award in Fragrance Journalism\, for her writing on the use of scent as an art medium\, and has served on the panel for Visual Artist grants for the National Endowment for the Arts. \nYou may find Catherine’s portfolio at catherinehaleyepstein.com and her essays at www.mindmarrow.com (instagram/twitter @mindmarrow).

SUMMARY:Morgan Buck\, John Whitten & Rachel Wolf at Hoffman Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Morgan Buck\, John Whitten & Rachel Wolf\, Surface / InterruptedCurated by Sam Hopple \nFebruary 1- March 1\, 2019Opening Reception: Friday\, February 1\, 4-6p \nHoffman GalleryOregon College of Art and Craft8245 SW Barnes Rd. Portland\, OR 97225503-397-5544Gallery Hours: Monday–Sunday\, 10:00 am–5:00 pmEmail: hoffmangallery@ocac.edu \n  \nThe Hoffman Gallery at Oregon College of Art and Craft is proud to announce Surface / Interrupted\, an exhibition of new work from Morgan Buck\, John Whitten and Rachel Wolf\, curated by Sam Hopple. \nThrough the mediums of Drawing\, Painting\, and Photography\, Surface / Interrupted is an exhibition full of poetic optics. The visual disruption\, surface tension\, and optical illusions present in the artists’ compositions pose the question if what we are viewing is analog or digital. Buck\, Whitten and Wolf all use experimental methods of making to produce visual enigmas that challenge the eye’s ability to clearly comprehend what is being seen. \nMorgan Buck uses photography and painting to produce blurry large scale works that invite the viewer to play a guessing game of what the subject matter actually is within the canvas. Using a special IPhone lens\, Buck distorts imagery from the internet\, rendering an image of spatial discombobulation. Using an airbrushing process\, Buck removes the digital elements of these found images; the pixels\, glitches\, and hard lines to create soft\, out of focus versions of the original. \nJohn Whitten’s laborious drawings navigate the sound and noise of the everyday by employing methods of intuition and chance as a means to disengage from pictorial realism. Moving away from the representational\, he translates the chaos of the everyday into static abstraction. Whitten presents his own system of personal mapping\, translating emotional experiences into lines and waves. The result is reminiscent of a digital print or Magic Eye stereogram\, but is in its essence the artist’s therapeutic process in documenting the unknown. \nRachel Wolf is a photographer working without a camera whose experimental processes with chemicals and light make her a practicing alchemist. By removing the camera\, a tool for representational documentation\, Wolf’s elemental approach lets her create images of the unseen\, unexplainable\, other. While her process is analog\, Wolf uses a digital printing process to realize her compositions as large scale prints and aluminium transfers. According to Wolf\, “taking the camera away from photography doesn’t remove the possibility for an image\, instead it provides space for proposing images for an un-lensed\, visual world.” \nA panel discussion with the artists regarding their work and practice will be held in the Hoffman Gallery as a Lunchtime talk on Monday\, February 25 at 12:45pm. OCAC’s Drawing and Painting Department Head Michelle Ross and Curator Sam Hopple will be guiding the discussion. \nAbout the ArtistsMorgan Buck is a visual artist living and working in Portland\, OR.  He earned an MFA in Craft from Oregon College of Art and Craft in 2015\, and a BFA in Painting from Pacific Northwest College of Art in 2010. Buck’s work has exhibited throughout the Portland area and internationally in Leipzig\, Germany. \nRachel Wolf is an educator and speaker in the field of photography based in Portland\, OR. Her work has been exhibited in venues such as Disjecta Contemporary Art Center\, Portland\, OR\, Camerawork Gallery\, Portland\, OR\, Rayko Photo Center\, San Francisco\, CA\, Manifest Gallery\, Cincinnati\, OH and National Video Center\, New York\, NY. Wolf is a founding member of FO(u)RT Collective\, a multi-disciplinary arts collective that creates/curates exhibitions and events.

SUMMARY:Charles Purvis at Multnomah Arts Center
DESCRIPTION:Charles Purvis \nMonday\, January 28 Artist talk from 8-9pmThe Forum meeting begins at 7pm.All are welcome. \nMultnomah Arts Center Portland Photographer’s Forum  7688 SW Capitol Hwy Portland\, OR 97219 https://www.portlandphotographersforum.com/ https://www.portlandphotographersforum.com/news/2019/featuredjanuary-speaker-charles-purvis \nCharles Purvis will be presenting select work from his time in New York and from work made more recently in Portland\, including handmade books and image objects. \n“Two things that (generally) define my work: traditional materials and personal interpretations.Faithful rendering is not of interest to me. I prefer to express an intuitive experience of objects. In my mind’s eye\, everything is alive. \nWhat interests me is to create images that I have not seen before\, images that are\, in some way\, not fully resolved\, stimulate associations\, or present a visual tension. \nI like to work with traditional materials because the limits of analogue photography call forth particular creative strategies and solutions.” \nBio: For many years Charles Purvis worked as a photographer in New York City creating groundbreaking imagery for a wide variety of internationally known clients. In addition to commercial assignments\, Charles has created a large body of innovative work inspired by a relentless curiosity and desire to uncover the creative potential of camera\, light and film.

DESCRIPTION:Open Call for Art for Black History Month at Angst Gallery  \nSubmit up to three pieces for $10.Art can be dropped off on January 26 from 3-6 or Wednesday\, January 30 from 12-6. \nBlack History Month at Angst Gallery February 1-23First Friday Art Walk Opening Reception: 5-9pm February 1 \nAngst Gallery1015 Main StreetVancouver\, WA98660angstgallery.comHours: Wed\, Thur\, Fri: 12-4Saturday: by appointmentContact: Leah Jackson Leah.AngstGallery@gmail.comAccessible via Niche Wine Bar (1013 Main Street) after 4pm Tuesday through Saturday. \nIn honor of Black History Month\, Angst Gallery seeks art which reflects all aspects of African- American life\, culture\, and history. All media are welcome. \nAccording to show organizer Claudia Carter\, “I would like people to have a better understanding of African American culture and what it means to be recognized for our worth to the community in which we live. Living in the Northwest\, it is easy to be overlooked and to feel like you don’t belong. Black History Month is not automatically recognized as a holiday. We have to insist that it be recognized. Black History Month\, or National African American History Month\, is an annual celebration of achievement by Black Americans. It is a time for recognizing the central role  African Americans have played in U.S. history. The event grew out of “Negro History Week” founded in 1926 by noted historian Carter G. Woodson and other prominent African Americans. Since 1976\, every U.S. president has officially designated the month of February as Black History Month. Other countries around the world\, including Canada and the United Kingdom\, also devote a month to celebrating Black History.” Since its opening in 2008\, Angst Gallery has hosted solo and group shows featuring more than 300 local and national artists and cultural events including art shows\, musical performances\, book launch parties\, art talks\, classes\, workshops\, and the monthly Ghost Town Poetry Open Mic. More than just a place to show art\, Angst Gallery is also a safe space for community discussion\, where all people are respected for who they are. We donate the use of the space to organizations that work for human rights and progressive social change.

SUMMARY:J. Cyril Coggins at The O’Brien Photo Gallery
DESCRIPTION:J. Cyril Coggins\, Personalized Nude Portrait Project \nThe show runs from January 12th through March 7th\, 2019An artist reception will be held on Saturday\, January 12th from 4-6 pm. \nThe O’Brien Photo Gallery2833 Willamette\, Ste. B.\, Eugene\, OR. 97405541 729 3572Open Weekdays\, call to be sure we’re open.email:  waltobrien1945@gmail.comWebsite:  http://obrienimaging.com/gallery.htm \nStarting on January 12th \, some images from the ‘Personalized Nude Portrait Project’ will be presented by J. Cyril Coggins. Over a period of more than 25 years\, in and around the Eighties\, he worked in collaboration with each of twenty or so women to produce “personalized nude portraits”. Their aim was not to create precise likenesses as in classic portraiture. Nor did they aim at producing sterile classical nudes. Rather they worked to discover ways to express aspects of participants which were unapparent in a standard portrait. \nThis work was collaborative. There was no money exchanged\, either way. One woman would pass on her experience in the project to another woman by word-of-mouth. Then\, the second woman\, to a third woman. In the end\, about 26 women participated. \nThe project is a paradigm for conceiving of photography as being found in the interaction between three sets: graphic photochemical and interpersonal. When asked if she\, too\, could participate\, he listened to hear whatever he could about her reasons for wanting to join the project. They would discuss what she wanted to portray of herself and who the imagined audience might be\, and then worked together to produce the image \nThe process created some degree of empathy between the subject\, the photographer and the intended audience. For\, example\, when suggesting a modification of one pose\, the subject is temporarily taking the role of the photographer. In one instance the photographer took the place of the subject. Otherwise\, the photographer maintained his expertise in questions of photochemistry and graphic design. \nAn understanding of confidentiality among all participants has been kept over these years. \n

SUMMARY:Darcie Sternenberg at Camerawork Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Darcie Sternenberg\, Earth Etchings : Emigrant Lake \nJanuary 5 – February 1\, 2019Artist Talk\, Saturday\, January 12\, 3pm-4pm; Artist Reception 4pm-5:30pm.  \nCamerawork Gallery301 N. Graham Street\, Portland\, OR 97227Located in Lorenzen Conference Center – Legacy Emanuel Medical Center Campus.9am – 6pm\, Monday-Saturday\, Sunday\, 10am-4pmFree off street parking available\, Stair and elevator access\, TriMet Routes 4\, 24 and 44www.TheCameraworkGallery.orgwww.Facebook.com/cameraworkgallery503-701-534Event is free and open to the public. \nJacksonville\, Oregon photographer\, Darcie Sternenberg\, notes\, “In the series\, Earth Etchings\, I explored Emigrant Lake reservoir in southern Oregon during drought conditions over a 3-year period. At one point the water level was 10% of normal. Ironically\, the drought was a “wet” one. Due to unusually warm winters\, most of the precipitation fell as rain. Therefore\, there was not a considerable visual change in the surrounding landscape but the reservoir\, that relies on melting snowpack to sustain water levels\, became a new world. One could think of it as an inverse oasis. \n“The heat of summer created the cracked earth suggesting a displaced desert. There was almost a post-apocalyptic feel at this near barren reservoir and an overwhelming feeling of quiet and loneliness. Walking on the lakebed somehow felt surreal—as if it shouldn’t even be allowed. And the landscape was not static. With sequential modest filling and emptying of the reservoir\, for irrigation needs\, it continually changed. I felt compelled to return again and again. \n“Initially conceived as a climate change documentary project\, I found the more I was there the more I developed a fascination with the interplay of the forms created by the drought and the changing atmospheric conditions\, at times with a magical effect. I began to see beauty amongst these earth etchings\, and became more connected to the natural world than ever before.” \nDarcie Sternenberg is a Southern Oregon-based B&W photographer who prefers to search for images in the everyday. For her\, capturing these images involves a deliberate process of searching for and ultimately visualizing the familiar\, forgotten or unnoticed in an extraordinary way. She earned a B.S. in Microbiology at Oregon State University and an M.D. at Washington University in St. Louis\, Missouri. After a number of years in private practice Nephrology\, she left the world of science to pursue her passion and interest in art. \nSternenberg’s work has been included in group and 2-person exhibitions including: •What is the Question?\, Rogue Art Gallery\, Medford\, OR. •Beauty in the Time of Climate Change\, Hanson Howard Gallery\, Ashland\, OR. •On Iceland\, Copper Country Art Gallery Hancock\, MI. \nJuried exhibitions: •The Center for Photographic Art\, Carmel\, CA • A Smith Gallery Johnson City\, TX. Published work includes: •Redwood Portraits\, LensWork Sixes\, 2016 •Divine Places\, LensWork\, 2017 •On Folded Earth portfolio\, LensWork\, 2014. •Earth Etchings – Emirgrant Lake\, LensWork Magazine #135\, April 2018. •Earth Etchings – Emigrant Lake was also selected as a PhotoLucidia 2018 Critical Mass finalist and received an Honorable Mention Award in the International Photography Awards— FIne Art Landscape category. \nwww.DarcieSternenberg.com \n

SUMMARY:Ashley Miller at Blue Sky Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Ashley Miller\, Sweet Things \nJanuary 3–February 3\, 2019 First Thursday opening reception: January 3\, 6:00–9:00 PMArtist talks: Thursday\, January 3\, 5:00 PM  \nBlue Sky Gallery 122 NW 8th AvenuePortland\, Oregon 97209 USA503-225-0210Tuesday – Sunday\, 12 – 5 pmFirst Thursday 6 – 9 pmbluesky@blueskygallery.orghttp://www.blueskygallery.org/ \nIn Sweet Things\, Ashley Miller creates abject still lifes with unsettling imagery that draw attention to the subtexts of desire\, consumerism\, and overabundance present in product and food photography. Miller’s particular brand of grotesque also alludes to culturally reinforced anxieties about the female body and sexuality that are often manipulated in advertising. The artist playfully disarms these notions using humor and an uncanny ability to present the familiar as strange\, and vice-versa. However\, despite these critiques of consumer culture\, Miller admits\, “I am a consumer\, too. I crave sugary food that has been marketed to me all my life. I bite and I chew and I swallow what I am given. Modern society is built on overabundance and addiction. This state of anxiety is the starting point for my work\, in which I attempt to embrace the tautological regurgitation. After all\, I am peddling the fetish.” \nAshley Miller was born in Aleppo\, Syria and raised on the island of Guam. She currently lives in Albuquerque\, New Mexico\, where she is completing an MFA at the University of New Mexico. Miller previously earned a BA from Evergreen State College\, in Olympia\, Washington. Her photography has been shown nationally and internationally\, most recently at the SE Center for Photography in Greenville\, South Carolina and at the Organ Vida International Photography Festival at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Zagreb\, Croatia. \n

DESCRIPTION:Angst Gallery Seeks Work for its Annual Celebration of the Male Form \nYou can submit your art on Saturday\, December 22 from 2-6 pm or Wednesday\, January 2 from 11am-2pm. \nAnnual Celebration of the Male Form January 4-26\, 2019\nFirst Friday Art Walk Opening Reception: January 4\, 5-9pm \nShow: January 4-26\, 2019 \nAngst Gallery\n1015 Main Street\nVancouver\, WA 98660\nangstgallery.com \nOpen call to artists for entries into Angst Gallery’s annual Celebration of the Male Form (January 4-26\, 2019). \nArt museums around the world are filled with images and representations of the human figure. Some of the Western world’s most famous and compelling works depict people\, both clothed and unclothed. It usually goes unnoticed that the art has a disproportionate amount of female figures compared to male ones\, especially nude forms. \nAngst Gallery showcases the male form at the beginning of each year in order to bring more balance to the equation. We see this as an opportunity to appreciate the male body for what it is–natural\, beautiful\, and worthy of aesthetic examination–while also acknowledging the gender imbalance in the art world\, both behind the scenes as well as in the work being displayed in museums and galleries. The show will include depictions of the male form in various media. \nSubmit up to three pieces for a sliding scale submission fee of $10-20. \nYou can submit your art on Saturday\, December 22 from 2-6 pm or Wednesday\, January 2 from 11am-2pm. \nIf neither of these times work\, please contact Leah Jackson (Leah.AngstGallery@gmail.com) to make other arrangements. \nArt that is not accepted for the show can be picked up on January 3 between 12 and 4. \nUnsold artwork that appeared in the show can be picked up from noon til 5 on Saturday\, January 26.

SUMMARY:Ryan Gillespie at the Portland Art Museum
DESCRIPTION:Ryan Gillespie\, Sharing views from his ground glass \nPortland Art Museum Photography Council’sBrown Bag Lunch Talk Series \nWednesday\, December 19th\, 2018\, Noon – 1pm  \nPortland Art MuseumThe Miller Gallery\, Mark Building1219 SW Park Avenue\, Portland\, OR 97205www.portlandartmuseum.org503 226 2811Cost: Free to the public (people are welcome to bring their lunch). \nSharing views from his ground glass\, Ryan Gillespie explores his obsession of light\, shapes\, and compositions and captures these elements in emotional images of the landscape around us. \nRyan works primarily with the black and white analogue process\, working as the sole craftsman from the moment the negative is exposed in the camera to the creation of the final platinum palladium print. \nSince being introduced to photography when I was 15\,I have always used photography as a tool of self-expression\, enjoyment\, and relaxation. I am in love with the process of exploration\, image capture\, chemical development\, and the final image presentation. \nI learned photography with film and transitioned into digital when it became available. It was at that moment when my enjoyment of the photographic process was lost and I walked away from photography for more than a decade. \nI decided to go back to photography and back to film\, large film\, and the large format process. The camera is big and the process is slow\, but this oversized and somewhat primitive camera design is a romantic and creative way to become more intimate with the subjects before me. \n

SUMMARY:Lincoln Kwan Miller at Pushdot Studio
DESCRIPTION:Lincoln Kwan Miller\, Undocumented Credentials \nDecember 5th – January 29\, 2019\nOpening reception on December 7th from 6-8pm. \nPushdot Studio\n2505 SE 11th Avenue\, Suite 104\nPortland\, OR 97202\nMon-Fri. 8:30am to 5:00pm\, free admission \nI had never considered myself as the primary subject in an image. But then I started thinking why not? A terrifying thought\, because I have spent my life dealing with feelings of alienation and trying to fit into my skin. I’ve coped with this by attempting to become invisible\, hopeless for the apparent but superficial reason of my physical appearance. This show is about the irony of feeling different yet wanting to fit in and a reflection on how our external environment helps define who we are. \n

SUMMARY:Zeb Andrews at Camerawork Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Zeb Andrews\, Sea \nDecember 1 – January 4\, 2019.\nArtist Talk\, Saturday\, December 1\, 3PM – 4PM\nArtist Reception\, Saturday\, December 1\, 4PM – 5:30PM. \nCamerawork Gallery\n301 N. Graham Street\, Portland\, OR 97227\nLocated in Lorenzen Conference Center – Legacy Emanuel Medical Center Campus.\n9am – 6pm\, Monday-Saturday\, Sunday\, 10am-4pm\nFree off street parking available\, Stair and elevator access\, TriMet Routes 4\, 24 and 44\nwww.TheCameraworkGallery.org\nwww.Facebook.com/cameraworkgallery\n503-701-534 \nPortland photographer Zeb Andrews will be sharing selections from “Sea”\, a series of medium format film images made during his many trips to the Pacific coast of Oregon and Washington. Andrews is a prolific photographer who has been working in the Portland photographic community for nearly two decades as an educator with various institutions and on the retail side of things with Blue Moon Camera and Machine. For as long as he has been involved with the local community\, he has been photographing along the Oregon coast for even longer.\nMade predominantly using a Hasselblad camera older than he is\, and with B&W film\, “Sea” represents a portion of the Pacific Ocean images that reflect Andrews’ attempts to understand and explain his relationship with the ocean. Visiting in a variety of weather\, returning again and again\, and using neutral density filters to lengthen the time he stands there watching the waves\, “Sea” contains images that explore where our coastline and the ocean meet over spans of time and year-round. His images capture tranquility as well as tempestuousness; they invoke beauty but also caution and danger. Their scope ranges from stretches of coast reaching miles into the distance\, to smaller and more intimate nooks along the shoreline. Through it all\, “Sea” offers a glimpse of many different oceans—each with a different emotional resonance for Andrews. \nZeb Andrews has lived the entire 40 years of his life in the Pacific Northwest and within easy distance of the Pacific Ocean. Most of his photographic life has been spent on its windswept shores\, breathing its salty air and making photographs to slowly piece together the puzzle of what it all means to him. Andrews is many other things\, just as the ocean can be many things\, but this is the facet of himself he would most have you know. At least for now. \nThis will be Andrews’ second solo exhibit at Camerawork Gallery. He held his first-ever solo exhibit at Camerawork Gallery in February\, 2008. \nMore of Zeb’s work can be found on his website at www.zebandrews.com\, and he can also be e-mailed at zeb@zebandrews.com. \n

SUMMARY:Wendy Red Star at Pushdot Studio
DESCRIPTION:Wendy Red Star\, 1873 Crow Delegation \nOPEN/CLOSE: October 3-November 31\, 2018\nClosing reception on November 30 from 6-8pm. \nPushdot Studio\n2505 SE 11th Avenue\, Suite 104\nPortland\, OR 97202\nMon-Fri. 8:30am to 5:00pm\, free admission \nThe poignant exhibition by Wendy Red Star consists of reproductions of photographs\, taken in Washington D.C by the Department of Interior and the Bureau of Ethnology. The images were annotated by Red Star with notes on cultural detail in red ink\, scrawled on the portraits\, asserting each individual”s identity and accomplishments. The photographs reflect the deliberate erasure of Native American culture that served to dehumanize the Crow and other indigenous people in the U.S. \nWendy Red Star works across disciplines to explore the intersections of Native American ideologies and colonialist structures\, both historically and in contemporary society. Raised on the Apsáalooke (Crow) reservation in Montana\, Red Star’s work is informed both by her cultural heritage and her engagement with many forms of creative expression\, including photography\, sculpture\, video\, fiber arts\, and performance. An avid researcher of archives and historical narratives\, Red Star seeks to incorporate and recast her research\, offering new and unexpected perspectives in work that is at once inquisitive\, witty and unsettling. Intergenerational collaborative work is integral to her practice\, along with creating a forum for the expression of Native women’s voices in contemporary art. \nRed Star has exhibited in the United States and abroad at venues including the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, Fondation Cartier pour l’ Art Contemporain\, Domaine de Kerguéhennec\, Portland Art Museum\, Hood Art Museum\, St. Louis Art Museum\, and the Minneapolis Institute of Art\, among others. She served a visiting lecturer at institutions including Yale University\, the Figge Art Museum\, the Banff Centre\, National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne\, Dartmouth College\, CalArts\, Flagler College\, and I.D.E.A. Space in Colorado Springs. In 2017\, Red Star was awarded the Louis Comfort Tiffany Award and in 2018 she received a Smithsonian Artist Research Fellowship. In 2019 Red Star will have her first career survey exhibition at the Newark Museum in Newark New Jersey. \nRed Star holds a BFA from Montana State University\, Bozeman\, and an MFA in sculpture from University of California\, Los Angeles. She lives and works in Portland\, OR. \n
