SUMMARY:Jim Fitzgerald: Revealed in Carbon at LightBox Photographic Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Jim Fitzgerald: Revealed in Carbon \nMay 12th – June 6th\, 2018 \nOpening and Artists’ Reception: Saturday\,  May 12th\, 5-8pm\nArtist Talk\, 4-5pm\, Call for Seating. \nLightBox Photographic Gallery\n1045 Marine Dr.\nAstoria\, OR 97103\n(503) 468-0238 \nlightbox-photographic.com\nhttp://lightbox-photographic.com/shows/revealed_in_carbon \nLightBox Photographic Gallery host the opening reception of Jim Fitzgerald’s exhibit\, “Revealed in Carbon” on Saturday\, May 12th\, from 5-8pm. Please join us for an artist’ talk from 4-5pm immediately before the opening reception. Please contact the gallery at info@lightbox-photographic.com for seating reservations for the artist talk. \nLightBox is proud to exhibit the work of this very passionate photographer. Jim is a Large and Ultra Large Format camera builder\, photographer and educator currently living in Vancouver\, Washington. Jim prints his images using the 150 year old Carbon Transfer process in all of his work. On this night\, Jim will present a special carbon transfer book project that has taken eleven years to complete. Additionally\, the artist will discuss this project and share a series of carbon transfer prints in a limited edition collection. \nA self-educated photographer\, Jim works exclusively in the monochrome carbon transfer process using in camera negatives from either his 8 × 10\, 11 × 14\, 8 × 20 or 14 × 17 hand crafted cameras. Carbon transfer is a process perfected in 1864 and is a highly labor intensive process that yields prints of the finest quality. The photographer has total control of the image tonality due to the blending of pigments and manufacturing of tissue unique to the artist’s vision. Carbon prints require several days to produce one finished print. Jim is one of a handful of artists who works exclusively in carbon transfer and he teaches Carbon transfer printing in his home studio in Vancouver\, Washington. \njimscarbonartphotography.com \n“To be one with your subject\, completely\, is how I work as an artist.\nI hear\, smell\, sense and always see what moves my soul. These fleeting moments are what I share\, what I hope will open the eyes and most importantly the hearts of the viewers to the beauty that is all around us.\nThe overwhelming joy with which I work has set me free. My methods and the final presentation of my vision\, carbon transfer prints\, are the gateway to my inner self. One only has to “let go” and experience the feeling of the images. I found my way long ago and the journey continues every waking moment.\nAs an artist my hope is to inspire others with my methods\, philosophy and images in a way that will allow them to touch their own inner self and share their vision with the world.\nPlease enjoy the carbon transfer prints I present as they are the culmination of my vision for they live and breathe for all to see.”\n~ Jim Fitzgerald \n“Revealed In Carbon” will show in the gallery from May 12th until June 6th.

SUMMARY:2018 Curatorial Prize: Ultra Vivid Dreaming at Blue Sky Gallery
DESCRIPTION:2018 Curatorial Prize: Ultra Vivid Dreaming\nphotography and video by Elliott Jerome Brown Jr. and Shikeith\ncurated by Ashley Stull Meyers \nMay 3–June 3\, 2018\nFirst Thursday Opening Reception\, May 3rd\, 6:00–9:00 PM\nArtist Talk: Saturday\, May 5th\, 3:00 PM\nClosing lecture for Ultra Vivid Dreaming with Dr. Derrais Carter: Saturday\, June 2nd\, 3:00 PM \nCurated by Ashley Stull Meyers\, Ultra Vivid Dreaming features photography and video work by two emerging artists that upends art historical legacies of portrait making and instead introduces contemporary studies of the body that are divorced from notions of “revealing”. Shikeith and Elliott Jerome Brown Jr. create images that are “ultra vivid” in color\, composition\, and focus on seemingly mundane environments with surreal undertones. The bodies pictured exist as if in a dream-state\, where the subject’s formal attributes and vulnerabilities are carefully considered by the photographer. While these works exist as contemporary representations of Black bodies and Queerness\, they also critique the pervasive consumption of Black imagery and culture by an otherwise negligent audience. The subjects of the photos obstruct access to their identities and innermost selves through intentional postures that obscure full visibility\, providing only a level of detail tangible in an ultra vivid dream. \nElliott Jerome Brown Jr. (b. 1993) is a conceptual photographer based in Brooklyn\, New York\, whose work focuses on intimacy\, vulnerability\, and social perception. He graduated in 2016 with a BFA from New York University and recently finished a residency at Skowhegan School of Painting & Sculpture in Maine. His work has been exhibited in New York City\, Baltimore\, Philadelphia\, Prague\, and Michoacán\, Mexico\, where he also did a residency at RedLab Laboratorio de Gestión y Vinculación Cultural A.C. In addition to a visual practice\, he is also the curator of DATE NIGHT\, an interdisciplinary exhibition set in various homes. \nShikeith (b. 1989) is a multi-disciplinary visual artist and filmmaker originally from Philadelphia\, PA. He holds a BA from The Pennsylvania State University and he is a 2018 MFA candidate in the sculpture department of Yale School of Art in New Haven\, Connecticut\, where he currently lives. Shikeith’s public programs and group and solo exhibitions have been held at national and international venues such as the MAK Gallery in London; the Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit; MoMA\, the Aperture Foundation\, and the Vera List Center in New York City; Pittsburgh’s Kelly-Strayhorn Theatre; Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT); Morehouse College in Atlanta; the Seattle Art Museum; and the Wrocław Contemporary Museum in Poland\, among others. Shikeith’s critically acclaimed documentary “#Blackmendream” (featured in this exhibition) was made possible by funding from multiple grants from The Pittsburgh Foundation and was named by the Tribeca Film Institute as one of ten films that capture the meaning of Black life in America. Shikeith is also the founder of Emerging Black Art. \nAshley Stull Meyers is a writer\, editor\, and curatorial collaborator. She has curated exhibitions and programming for the Wattis Institute (San Francisco)\, Eli Ridgway (San Francisco)\, the Oakland Museum of California\, Newspace Center for Photography\, Blue Sky Gallery\, and Bridge Productions (Seattle\, WA). She has been in academic residency at the Bemis Center for Contemporary Art (Omaha\, NE) and the Banff Centre (Banff\, Alberta). She is Northwest Editor for Art Practical\, and has contributed writing to Bomb Magazine\, Rhizome\, Arts.Black and SFAQ/NYAQ. In 2017 Meyers was named the The Robert and Mercedes Eichholz Director and Curator of the Art Gym and Belluschi Pavilion. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Laurie Lambrecht\, Jungle Road
DESCRIPTION:Laurie Lambrecht\, Jungle Road \nMay 3–June 3\, 2018 \nFirst Thursday Opening Reception: May 3\, 6:00–9:00 PM\nArtist talk: Thursday\, May 3\, 5:00 PM \nIntermittently over a period of two years\, Laurie Lambrecht photographed the lush habitat surrounding the Robert Rauschenberg Residency on Captiva Island\, Florida. Inspired by the multi-layered and textured environment as well as the formal relationships between the plant and human life found there\, she began printing her images on the soft surface of recycled newsprint to convey the irresistibly tactile nature of the place. This focus on patterns and texture\, as well as a desire to work more directly with her hands\, soon led to Lambrecht’s Bark Cloth series\, which is also included in this exhibition. Close-up photographs of trees are printed on linen and embroidered by the artist along the unique lines and patterns of the bark. Lambrecht writes\, “I love that the bark of a tree can appear to be a topographical map\, and how the outlines of the bark’s scales can read like rivers or mountains. I am using lines of embroidered thread as a visual guide through the bark’s imagined landscape.” \nLaurie Lambrecht was born in Bridgehampton\, New York and resides there today. She earned her undergraduate degree at Marymount College in Tarrytown\, New York\, and has studied in graduate programs at the University of Colorado at Boulder and the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester\, New York\, where she also worked at the George Eastman House. Lambrecht’s projects include documenting Roy Lichtenstein’s studio in the early 1990s while she was his assistant. Inside Roy Lichtenstein’s Studio was exhibited in Houston at the Bank of America Center during the FotoFest 2010 Biennial\, as well as at Blue Sky\, and abroad. China 2009\, a series of landscapes\, taken during her first trip east\, was exhibited at Rick Wester Fine Art\, New York in 2012. Lambrecht participated in Centro Colombo Americano de Medellín’s 2013 Zoomlab in Colombia\, working with high school and university students for two weeks. While in Colombia\, she had a solo exhibition at El Museo Universidad de Antioquia. This is Lambrecht’s second solo show at Blue Sky. \n

SUMMARY:CALL FOR ART: Corvidae Family-Inspired Art at Angst Gallery
DESCRIPTION:CALL FOR ART: Family Corvidae  \nMay 4-26\, 2018\nFirst Friday Opening Reception: 5-9pm May 4 \nDue: Intake of artwork will happen on Saturday\, April 28\, 2018 between 3pm and 8pm\, Tuesday\, May 1 between 3 and 8. \nAngst Gallery\n1015 Main Street\nVancouver\, WA 98660\nWed\, Thurs\, Fri\, Sat 12-4pm\n(or by appointment)\n360-553-1014\nangstgallery.com \nAngst Gallery invites you to submit art for Family Corvidae\, a celebration of nutcrackers\, jackdaws\, ravens\, crows\, jays\, magpies\, ground jays and and treepies which will be displayed May 4-26. \nEach artist can submit up to three pieces for a submission fee of five dollars per artist. Artwork can only be delivered during the two drop off days specified below. Angst Gallery reserves the right to disqualify any artwork that does not fit into the theme of corvidae or that is not ready for hanging. \nUnsold artworks can be picked up from two until eight pm on Tuesday\, May 29 and Thursday\, May 31 between 3 and 8. \nFamily Corvidae is being presented in conjunction with “Escape From Audubon\,” presented by our neighbors at Art at the Cave (108 EAST EVERGREEN BOULEVARD\, VANCOUVER\, WA\, 98660) and featuring art by Cynthia Heise\, Anne John\, William Park\, Kathi Rick\, and Michael Smith. According to Cave co-founder Anne John\, “their show is based on the little- known fact that the Audubon Society is named after a prolific artist who prolifically killed his subject matter in order to paint them. As a bird lover\, the dichotomy is striking. Our intention is not to invite the disapproval of the Audubon Society\, which does wonderful work saving and protecting avian creatures. However\, as artists\, we just can’t help ourselves sometimes.” \nFor inspiration: http://www.oiseaux-birds.com/page-family-corvidae.html

SUMMARY:JP Terlizzi at Camerawork Gallery
DESCRIPTION:JP Terlizzi\, Mother \nApril 28th – June 1st\, 2018 \nCamerawork Gallery\n2255 NW Northrup Street\n(Linfield School of Nursing – Peterson Hall)\nPortland\, OR 97210\nhttp://www.TheCameraworkGallery.org\nhttp://www.facebook.com/cameraworkgallery\nGallery Hours: 9am-4pm\, Monday-Friday\, Saturday 9am-5pm \nThe course of a life can be determined by a single\, sharp moment; one that is inevitable and ultimately essential. A moment of trauma\, setback or challenge reverberates for years to come\, daring us to keep moving forward\, and shaping our capacity to connect and flourish. \nTerlizzi notes\, “My mother was devastated by my father’s infidelity\, which led to a bitter divorce that had a profound impact on our family. As I witnessed her life unravel\, I thought about strength of character\, and began to wonder whether it was an innate quality or a personal choice. How is it that some emerge from the most difficult of moments better and stronger\, while others find comfort in solitude\, anger\, jealousy and despair? \n“It’s been over 45 years since that traumatic event\, yet my mother has never fully recovered nor has she felt the need to seek professional help for her mental stability. Instead\, I witnessed a woman who thrived on self-pity and detached herself from loved ones. As a result\, her extreme actions and behavior were a detriment to the entire family. \n“Mother explores the emotional and psychological terrain surrounding the ending of relationships and the loss of personal identity. I use photography as a means to interpret and understand my mother’s experiences\, and piece together a tattered family narrative scarred by emotional trauma. For me\, the process was one of personal discovery\, but more importantly\, it provided closure. A therapeutic process emerged where the feelings of sorrow\, disappointment and anger resurfaced\, and I was able to tame those feelings through acceptance and forgiveness.” \nABOUT THE ARTIST JP Terlizzi is a visual storyteller who uses photography to explore themes of memory\, relationship\, and identity. Drawing inspiration from his personal\nexperiences he captures moments that convey narratives—whether the story is a framed moment that reveals something about family and home\, or a poetic interpretation of a fading reality\, the feeling of loss and detachment are recurring themes in his work. \nBorn and raised in the farmlands of Central New Jersey\, JP currently lives in Manhattan. His career spans thirty plus years as creative director for a boutique agency specializing in retail design. He earned a BFA in Communication Design at Kutztown University of Pennsylvania and has studied photography at the International Center of Photography in New York and Maine Media College in Rockport ME. His work has been exhibited in the United States and abroad including shows at The Center for Fine Art Photography\, Fort Collins\, CO\, Umbrella Arts Gallery\, New York\, NY\, Soho Photo Gallery\, New York\, NY\, The Griffin Museum\, Winchester\, MA\, Tilt Gallery\, Scottsdale\, AZ\, A Smith Gallery\, Johnson City\, TX\, The Los Angeles Center of Photography\, Texas Photographic Society\, Dallas TX\, Project Basho Gallery\, Philadelphia\, PA\, Municipal Heritage Museum\, Malaga\, Spain\, and \nThe Berlin Foto Biennale\, Berlin\, Germany\, among others. In 2018\, his series Descendants was selected as a Finalist and was awarded a solo show with the Soho Photo Gallery in Manhattan. In addition\, work from his series The Cedars Run Silent was selected in 2018 Photo Emerge as twenty emerging photographers with the Midwest Center of Photography in Wichita\, KS. He was named a Photolucida 2016 Critical Mass Finalist for his series Mother and was a 2015 Critical Mass Finalist for his series Hunter’s Calling\, which was also selected for the C4FAP Portfolio ShowCase Vol. 9 and ONWARD Compé ’16. His work has been featured in PDN\, Lenscratch\, L’oeil de la Photographie\, All About Photo\, The Photo Review\, F-Stop and Abridged Magazine. \nwww.JPTerlizziPhotography.com \n

Each artist will lecture for 60 minutes and answer questions. \nFriday April 20 \n4:30pm – Katharine T Jacobs \nKatharine T Jacobs is a graduate of Oregon College of Art and Craft. Originally from the rural foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Katharine began her education at California College of the Arts in Oakland\, California. There she learned to shoot with a large format camera and discovered Polaroid type 55 film. In 2007 she moved to Portland\, purchased her own 4×5 camera and started photographing friends\, family and countless strangers. Her focus in street photography and large format shooting would inspire her journey across the United States and the production of her largest body of work to date; American Strangers. \nKatharine continues to use portraiture as a main focus in her work. In junction with multiple exposures and mixed media she uses the photograph as a vehicle and a reference point that empowers the viewer to interact with objects and items they may not have. Katharine Jacobs lives and works in Portland\, Oregon and is inspired by her family and the nature of the Pacific Northwest. \n6:00pm – Blue Mitchell \nBlue Mitchell is an independent publisher\, curator\, educator\, and photographer. Based in Portland\, Oregon\, he has been involved with many facets of the photographic arts. Mitchell received his BFA from Oregon College of Art & Craft where he has also taught studio school classes and workshops. In his personal work\, he implements many photographic techniques including toy cameras\, pinhole\, alternative processes\, mixed media\, and hand drawing. Most recently Mitchell has been specializing in acrylic lifts–this process and artwork have been published in Photographic Possibilities\, 3rd edition by Robert Hirsch and Alternative Photographic Processes:  Crafting Handmade Images by Brady Wilks. \n7:30pm – Zeb Andrews \nZeb Andrews is a Portland-based photographer who has lived his entire life in the Pacific Northwest.  The majority of his work week is spent immersed in photography while working at Blue Moon Camera and Machine in North Portland.  Much of his inspiration comes from the photographers and photography he sees circulate through that store on a daily basis\, and he in turn loves passing that along.  Zeb was an instructor at Newspace Center for Photography for seven years and frequently gives presentations to local high school and college photography programs on all things photographic.  When he isn’t at work or enthralled in a class lecture he can often be found on some windswept beach or quietly verdant forest\, camera in hand. \n

SUMMARY:Minor White’s Beginnings - A Public Symposium at the Portland Art Museum
DESCRIPTION:Minor White’s Beginnings\nA Public Symposium \nApril 20\, 9:30am – 5pm \nWhitsell Auditorium\nPortland Art Museum\n1219 SW Park Avenue\nPortland\, OR 97205\nportlandartmuseum.org\n503-226-2811 \nFree and open to the public\, no reservations required \nIn this daylong symposium co-organized by the Portland Art Museum and the Princeton University Art Museum\, scholars of art and art history\, archivists\, and artists will explore Minor White’s early career and works\, and discuss the ways that White’s art and archives are being cared for and accessed by the public. Please join us on April 20 for part or all of this free event\, which celebrates the museum’s current exhibition In the Beginning: Minor White’s Oregon Photographs. \nThis symposium is supported by the Minor White Archive\, Princeton University Art Museum. \n\nSchedule \n9:30AM\nPortland Art Museum’s Photographic Beginnings: Minor White’s WPA Images of Oregon\nJulia Dolan\, PhD\, Minor White Curator of Photography\, Portland Art Museum \nDr. Dolan will discuss the Portland Art Museum’s holdings of Minor White’s photographs of Oregon and how they became the institution’s first fine art photography acquisitions. \n10:15AM\nSeeing like a Westerner—Oregon Landscapes around 1940\nW. Ian Bourland\, PhD\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Art History\, Maryland Institute College of Art\nProfessor Bourland will explore White’s Eastern Oregon landscapes and his time in Portland\, where he engaged with the teachings of the f.64 group and joined a deeper history of picturing the American West. \n11:00AM\nBehind the Scenes: Minor White’s Archives in Portland and at Princeton\nVal Ballestrem\, Education Manager\, Architectural Heritage Center\nMatthew Cowan\, Archivist for Photography and Moving Images\, Oregon Historical Society\nJulia Dolan\, PhD\, Minor White Curator of Photography\, Portland Art Museum\nCathryn Goodwin\, Manager of Collections Information\, Princeton University Art Museum\nKenneth Hawkins\, PhD\, archivist and author \nA conversation consisting of multiple perspectives\, the panel will discuss the nature of White’s archival materials\, how they are accessed by the public and used by outside institutions\, and the valuable information they hold. \n12:00PM\nBREAK \n1:30PM\nFrom Expression to Creation: Minor White’s Theater\nTodd Cronan\, PhD\, Associate Professor of Modern Art\, Department of Art History\, Emory University \nWhite provocatively declared “candid” photography a “dead end.” White’s alternative to the subject “caught unawares” was what he called the “camera-conscious” approach. Professor Cronan contends that White’s engagement with theater that began at the Portland Civic Theatre changed the course of his photography. Moving from caught to conscious photography\, his staged scenes opened up an influential course for the future of photographic practice. \n2:15PM\nCharacteristic Photography for Students of the Art\nBrendan Fay\, PhD\, Assistant Professor\, School of Art and Design\, Eastern Michigan University \nProfessor Fay will discuss White’s growing need to provide students a systematic introduction to photography and its possibilities\, and his resulting reuse and repackaging of his Oregon pictures at the California School of Fine Arts in the 1940s and 1950s. \n3:00PM\nLegacy: Minor White’s Relevance to Contemporary Practice\nAspen Mays\, Artist and Assistant Professor in Graduate Fine Arts and Undergraduate Photography\, California College of the Arts\nKatherine Bussard\, PhD\, Peter C.

SUMMARY:Photographer Speaker Series (2/3) at Portland Community College - Cascade Campus
DESCRIPTION:Photographer Speaker Series\nPortland Photography Month \nSaturday\, April 14 \n1:30 – 2:45   Rachel Wolf\n3:00 – 4:15  Margaret Jacobsen\n4:30 – 5:45   Davis Hilton \nPortland Community College – Cascade Campus \nMoriarty Arts and Humanities Building\n705 N Killingsworth St\, Portland\, OR 97217\nAuditorium  Room 104 \nContact:\nKelli Pennington\nInstructor of Photography\nPortland Community College – Cascade Campus\nKellipenni@gmail.com \nPortland Community College – Cascade Art Department is pleased to announce a Photographer Speaker Series in support of Portland Photography Month.  All students and community members are welcome to attend.  Featuring nine photographers\, who photograph a wide range of subjects and utilize various forms of the medium\, will speak about their life path\, artistic practice\, and thoughts on the state of photography. Each artist will lecture for 60 minutes and answer questions. \nSaturday April 14 \n1:30pm – Rachel Wolf \nRachel Wolf specializes in Photography and Light Installations. Many of her projects are experiments in which the external world is lensed in a way that considers inner reality and visual perception; photography implies an objectivity\, whose impossibility masks potent subjectivities. One of her principal methods of working with photography is without a camera\, and involves directly exposing photographic paper to light and chemicals. She chooses to return to these irreducible elements\, the invisible tools of analogue photography\, in order to produce a new\, tangible photographic subject. This way of working with light in the dark led her to start producing light-based installations. These are spaces in which a viewer may find themselves in a liminal space between sensory  experience and knowledge\, the analytical and the corporeal\, perception and apprehension. Rachel exhibits her work nationally\, and is an educator and speaker in the field. Originally from Anchorage\, Alaska\, Rachel earned her BA from Hampshire College and her MFA from Pacific Northwest College of Art. \n3:00pm – Margaret Jacobsen \nI’m a non-binary parent who loves dance parties in the kitchen\, all day naps\, brunch at anytime\, writing articles that challenge\, raising plant babies\, and leading discussions around dismantling patriarchy\, societies expectations with relationships\, how to take care of our mental health\, and how to build community in all that we do. A photographer + writer by trade\, who has fallen into strategy + branding\, while teaching fellow humans about race\, queerness\, gender\, and often times plants\, and pop culture. I try to do as many things as possible\, because why not? \n4:30pm – Davis Hilton \nI am a 23-year-old photographer living in Portland\, and I love taking portraits. To be honest\, I could photograph people for the rest of my life and be the happiest person alive. \nI am a college student\, currently working on earning my degree in advertising at Portland State University. I’m also a proud member of the LGBT community\, and a Game of Thrones fanatic. \n

SUMMARY:Ann Ploeger at Luke's Frame Shop (Albina)
DESCRIPTION:Ann Ploeger\, The Woman Who Was Alive There\nPortraits by Ann Ploeger \nApril 7th – 30th\, 2018\nOPENING PARTY: Saturday\, April 7th\, 6-8pm \nLuke’s Frame Shop (Albina)\n4703 N. Albina Avenue\nPortland\, OR 97217\nlukesframeshop.com\nMon – Sat\, 10am – 6pm\n*wheelchair accessible \nThere remains something that goes beyond the testimony to the photographer’s art\, something that fills you with an unruly desire to know what her name was\, the woman who was alive there\, who is even now still real and will never consent wholly to be absorbed in art. -Walter Benjamin \nI made these portraits of my community of women during the summer of 2017. I wanted to strip away the environment allowing these women to take center stage: the simple figure on a white background looking at me looking at you. Their gaze transports me to a place where I think about who I used to be and who I thought I would be. My selection from each sitting puts me at the forefront; shows the viewer my truth. I am the invisible variable. \nIn this time of rampant misogyny and hate\, I needed to celebrate the strength and beauty around me. The work is a love letter to the women in my life and to photographic portraiture. \nAnn Ploeger\nannploeger.com \n

SUMMARY:J. Fredric May at Blue Sky Gallery
DESCRIPTION:J. Fredric May\, Apparition: Postcards from Eye See You\n2017 Critical Mass Solo Exhibition Award in collaboration with Photolucida \nApril 5–29\, 2018\nFirst Thursday Opening Reception\, April 5\, 6:00–9:00 PM\nArtist Talk: Saturday\, April 7\, 3:00 PM \nBlue Sky Gallery\n122 NW 8th Avenue\nPortland\, Oregon 97209 USA\n503-225-0210\nTuesday – Sunday\, 12 – 5 pm\nFirst Thursday 6 – 9 pm\nbluesky@blueskygallery.org\nhttp://www.blueskygallery.org/ \nIn 2012 J. Fredric May experienced a major stroke\, causing him to lose 46% of his vision. This rendered him legally blind and subject to vivid visual hallucinations. This life event dramatically changed his artistic vision\, opening up an entirely new visual style as he began to illustrate how his brain now processes information. \nMay’s photographs are a hybrid of analog and digital processes that are the result of extensive experimentation. He begins with vintage portraits that he scans and puts through data corruption software. He then creates layered composites and prints these as cyanotypes\, which he bleaches and tones with a mixture of photo chemicals and tea. He then digitizes the altered cyanotypes and creates an archival pigment print of each enigmatic portrait. \nBlue Sky is pleased to present Apparition as the 2017 Critical Mass Solo Exhibition Award in collaboration with Photolucida. \nA graduate of Brooks Institute\, J. Fredric May received his B.S. in Commercial/Color Technology and was accepted into the prestigious Eddie Adams Workshop in 1989. He made his living as a photojournalist and commercial photographer traveling all over the world\, telling visual stories with a signature style of bold color and confrontational composition. He won numerous state and regional honors. As a filmmaker\, May directed more than 50 corporate and industrial films and helped raise more than 7 million dollars for nonprofit organizations. He has won Telly and Cine Awards for his creative film work and national awards for his corporate and nonprofit clients. \n

SUMMARY:Small Talk Collective at Pushdot Studio
DESCRIPTION:Small Talk Collective\, We’re Always Touching By Underground Wires\n\nOPEN/CLOSE: April 6 – May 28\, 2018.\nOpening reception on April 6th from 6-8pm for First Friday in conjunction with Portland Photo Month. \nPUSHDOT STUDIO\n2505 SE 11th Avenue\, Suite 104 – in the Ford Building\, enter on Division Street\nPortland\, OR 97202\n503.224.5925\nwww.pushdotstudio.com\nGallery Hours: Mon-Fri. 8:30am to 5:00pm\, free admission \nPushdot is proud to host Small Talk Collective for their first joint exhibition and book release! In this redefining point of history for the Portland photography community\, these seven women are showing the importance of supporting and empowering one another as artists\, entrepreneurs\, and experts in their field.  They invite you into a conversation – both visual and societal – around the strength of joining individual visions in order to speak to broader human desires and themes\, including empathy\, belonging\, memory\, and transformation. \nThe exhibition\, book release\, and the later community conversation in May\, are supported by a generous Project Grant from the Regional Arts and Culture. \nAbout Small Talk Collective\nSmall Talk is a photography collective comprised of seven women artists. It was formed in Portland\, Oregon in 2015. \nAs a group\, Small Talk explores the nature of what it means to be visual storytellers. They pool resources\, provide support\, and exchange ideas – engaging in the best kind of small talk\, that which binds them together\, fostering stronger work and facilitating collaboration. smalltalkcollective.com \nAbout the Work\nChange is incremental\, barely noticed\, until it’s sudden and irrevocable. A house slowly ages and wears\, until abruptly\, it’s demolished and gone. Inside our own homes\, we find imperfections and repairs\, evidence of former occupants and our former selves. We feel these transitions and make new connections: between a bird discovered in a field and one dismembered by a cat\, between the furrows on a face and those on the landscape\, impressions left on skin and in memory. We look for change and find its mark. We look at what is\, attempting to find the shape of what was. \nAbout the Artists \nAudra Osborne is a photographer and crafter whose work stems from the often debilitating emotions she (and many people) feel on a daily basis. These ideas typically center around anxiety\, depression\, and loss. Her photographs act as a visual diary and study of these emotions\, as well as a remedy. By creating these images she has created a space for herself and others to discuss these “taboo” topics on an open platform. This self-enforced openness has allowed her to become more in control of her anxiety\, beyond systems and treatments. Audra-osborne.com \nBriana Cerezo utilizes photography as a process of discovery. Making photographs offers opportunities to deeply study those things in life that she finds most perplexing — namely people\, the nature of relationships\, creative process\, spirituality\, philosophy\, and the inner workings of the self. Photography allows her the opportunity to reflect and organize fragments of her experiences in order to make sense of the world and her role in it.\nBriana’s editorial and documentary photographs have been featured in newspapers and magazines such as Portland Monthly\, Willamette Week\, Portland Mercury\, Fraction\, Ain’t-Bad and The New Asterisk\, and her artwork has been exhibited in galleries throughout the Pacific Northwest. In 2017 she was awarded an artist residency with Oregon Historical Society to interview and photograph members of diverse and underrepresented populations throughout Oregon. Brianacerezo.com \nJennifer Timmer Trail\, originally from Northern Michigan\, spent over a decade in New York\, and some time in Copenhagen and Victoria\, BC\, before settling in Portland\, Oregon. Life circumstances have kept her far from the idyllic small town she still calls home\, and this has played a crucial role in the development of her work. Her photographs explore the longings that exist within relationships\, things we wish we could hold on to but can’t\, and the nostalgia that accompanies the process of aging. She is most interested exploring and pushing the boundaries of what a photograph can communicate on an emotional and psychological level.\nJennifer received her MFA in Photography from Hartford Art School and her BA in Art History / Studio Art / Natural Science from Michigan State University. She is currently an instructor of photography\, design\, and publication production\, and her work has been written about and exhibited internationally. Jennifertrail.com \nKelli Pennington often plays a role for the camera\, which allows her to feel outside of herself\, or forces her to feel her skin tautly strung over her bones. She sees herself in her mind’s eye and feels fragile and human. That vulnerability is as thrilling as it is terrifying. Kelli is an educator at Portland Community College and an avid traveller.  Kellipennington.com \nKristina Hruska has worked as the Education Director for Newspace Center for Photography in Portland\, OR\, Photo Workshops Director at Rocky Mountain School of Photography in Missoula\, MT\, and as an Editor for Diffusion: Unconventional Photography Magazine. She currently holds the position of Gallery Director at Pushdot Gallery in Portland. She is the Founder of Small Talk Collective.\nKristina’s photographic work explores the themes of mystery and resilience and often speaks to the intersection between the ordinary and the extraordinary. Her photography has been shown in galleries across the U.S. and is held in private collections across the globe.  kristinahruska.com \nLeslie Hickey holds BA degrees in Studio Art and English from Whitman College. She recently worked as a teaching assistant in the media department at Studio Art Centers International in Florence\, Italy\, and was a fellow through the Civita Institute in the tiny village of Civita di Bagnoregio. In addition to her photography\, she runs a quarterly letterpress subscription service through her imprint\, Hoarfrost Press. Leslie is also a founding member of an international photographic group entitled Scaleno. Lesliehickey.com \nMarico Fayre is a photographic artist whose work explores vulnerability\, aloneness\, mental illness\, LGBTQ identity\, the search for belonging\, and the dialogue that occurs between making and experiencing art. Her work has been described as visual poetry and her drive to create both encompasses and challenges notions of beauty.\nMarico often collaborates with performance artists and writers\, weaving together the two voices in order to create projects of depth and strength. She teaches workshops and mentors MFA students\, incorporating her background in branding\, project management\, and creative direction\, to support and teach the business side of being an artist. Her combination of determination\, efficiency\, and calm lead one client to describe her style as\, “doing wild things very quietly.”\nA gypsy at heart\, she travels as often as possible in order to continue challenging how she sees the world and what she is able to discover with her camera.

SUMMARY:"Cascadia: Where Oregon Meets" juried show at Crossroads Carnegie Art Center
DESCRIPTION:Cascadia: Where Oregon Meets\nA juried show featuring 47 Oregon photographers \nApril 6 – 28\, 2018\nCrossroads Carnegie Art Center\n2020 Auburn Ave.\nBaker City\, Oregon\nwww.crossroads-arts.org\nGallery Hours: 10am-5pm\, Monday-Saturday \n“Cascadia: Where Oregon Meets\,” a touring juried exhibit featuring photographs and photographers from all corners of the state\, opens at the Crossroads Carnegie Art Center in Baker City on April 6. \nThe exhibit\, which will visit three cities in the state this spring and summer\, is an effort to “bring an ever-divided state of Oregon closer together through the lens of photographers\, both urban and rural\,” according to Crossroads Director Ginger Savage\, who spearheaded the project. \nThe inaugural exhibit at Crossroads will run through April 28\, with a reception and awards ceremony scheduled for Friday April 6 from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Eleven of the 47 exhibiting photographers will be awarded cash prizes ranging from $500 for Best of Show and People’s Choice to $100 for Honorable Mention. \n“We asked photographers from across the breadth of our state to interpret ‘the authentic Oregon experience’ and to show us stories about what we share from both sides of the Cascades\,” says Savage. “We named the show for the geology under us all. When the Cascadia Subduction Zone breaks (and it’s only a matter of time!)\, the little picky things that have divided Oregonians\, including urban vs. rural\, will not matter anymore.”\nThe exhibit includes black-and-white and color photographs depicting the varied landscapes and people of Oregon from the Coast to the Snake River and from the Columbia Gorge to Klamath Falls. The project was underwritten by the Ford Family Foundation of Roseburg\, Ore. \nAfter Baker City the exhibit will be on display at The Dalles-Wasco County Public Library in The Dalles May 4 – 31\, and then at the LaSells Stewart Center on the Oregon State University campus in Corvallis from July 2 to Aug. 5. \n
