The pictures are about the passage of time\, change\, and the unstable quality of the fleeting moment. All the images were made using a small hand-held point-and-shoot camera\, along with some patience and wholehearted attention. Each assembled picture lays out a process of change that can be hard to understand without a visual guide. \nPhil Harris has been a Portland-based art photographer for decades. He taught for some years at Oregon College of Art and Craft\, and has exhibited his work around the US. His images are held in numerous collections\, public and private.

SUMMARY:Philip Bowser in the Blue Sky Gallery Community Drawers
DESCRIPTION:Philip Bowser in the Blue Sky Gallery drawers \nJune 1 through July 31\, 2023 \nBlue Sky Gallery\n122 NW 8th Avenue\nPortland\, Oregon 97209 USA\n503-225-0210\nWednesday – Saturday 12 – 5 pm\nbluesky@blueskygallery.org\nhttp://www.blueskygallery.org/ \nPortland artist\, Philip Bowser\, is pleased to announce a new series entitled “Behind The Assumed View\,” will be available for inspection at the Portland Photographers’ Forum Community Drawer from June 1 through July 31\, 2023. Visitors may remove from the drawer any or all of the 17×22” composite photographs for closer examination. \nThe premise of the series is that people have learned standards and rules for how things should be. These assumptions can be distortions of reality that help to maintain an unhealthy status quo. Photography and other media\, portraying reality as it is assumed to be\, at times could be complicit in maintaining the illusion of normalcy. \nThese prints are the results of my efforts to tear away the thin veneer of expectations to reveal a different reality\, one desperately in need of improvement in many areas. Each one starts with a simple photograph\, which is then heavily modified in post-processing to give the impression that a lot of work still needs to be done to create a fair and equitable society. The prints are difficult to read\, requiring a closer look at the grit and distortions that are invisible when the assumed view is intact and unchallenged. They are puzzles waiting to be solved. \nViewers will find the images at 122 NW 8th Ave\, 97209\, Portland\, OR 97209-3502\, in flat storage drawers area of Blue Sky Gallery. The gallery is typically open noon to 5pm every day except Monday\, when it is closed. Call 503 225 0210 to check for schedule changes. \nPhilip B.

SUMMARY:Rich Bergeman\, The Land Remembers
DESCRIPTION:Rich Bergeman\, The Land Remembers \nMay 2 – Sept. 15\, 2023\nLecture and Book Signing\, 1pm\, May 20\, 2023 \nFort Vancouver National Historic Site\n1501 E Evergreen Blvd.\nVancouver\, WA 98661\nhttps://www.nps.gov/fova/index.htm\n360 907-1075\nOpen Tues-Sat 10am-3:45pm \nSelections from Rich Bergeman’s “The Land Remembers: Photographs Inspired by the Rogue River Wars of Southern Oregon” are on display at the Fort Vancouver Visitor Center now through Sept. 15. The Corvallis photographer will give an illustrated lecture on Saturday\, May 20\, at 1 p.m. \nThe exhibit features a dozen black-and-white infrared photographs from Bergeman’s two-year project exploring the landscapes where the Rogue River Indian Wars took place in the 1850s. “My goal was to bring this largely forgotten war back into our collective consciousness by reflecting on the beauty of the landscapes that played host to those tragic events\,” Bergeman said.\nOne of the least remembered and yet bloodiest of the Oregon Territory’s Indian wars\, the conflicts ranged over a broad swath of rugged territory between the Rogue River Country and the South Coast between 1851 and 1856. \nThe war traces its beginning to the passage of the Oregon Donation Land Claim Act in 1850 and the nearly simultaneous discovery of gold in the region. As settlers and miners streamed in\, the various small tribes who lived there suddenly found their hunter-gatherer way of life being destroyed. Skirmishes\, murders and atrocities on both sides inevitably followed\, until the conflict erupted into all-out war involving the U.S. Army. It ended with the forced removal of the decimated tribes to newly created coastal reservations at Siletz and Grand Ronde in 1856 in what descendants today memorialize as Oregon’s “Trail of Tears.” \nAn Oregonian since 1976\, Bergeman is a retired instructor of journalism and photography at Linn-Benton Community College in Albany. The 74-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 \n  \n

I found it in a grave in Rubavu\, Western Province\, Rwanda. Last January 2017\, I went to Rwanda and wanted to find your bodies (skeleton) and restore your dignity. I found you on January 20th and took you to the memorial site of Nyanza\, Kicukiro. I was exhausted after that; I expected to be relieved and feel grateful for that accomplishment but instead became so sick. My muscles were not working\, I spent weeks in bed recalling every detail of before your trip to Ruhango and the day of our separation. Our wish was for you to survive even if we die. We could not imagine someone killing a 3 or 5 year old. Helas\, no chance for me! God only know!

SUMMARY:Deb Stoner in the Pushdot Studio Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Deb Stoner\, A Closer Look \nApril 7th\, 2023 – May 26th\, 2023\nOpening Reception: April 7th\, 2023 6-8pm \nPUSHDOT STUDIO\n2505 SE 11th Avenue\, Suite 104\nin 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 \nDeb Stoner is an American artist\, born in 1957. Deb received a BS in Geology from University of California at Davis\, and her MFA from San Diego State University. She taught jewelry and metalsmithing classes at the Oregon College of Art and Craft in Portland\, Oregon for over twenty years\, and is known for creating innovative approaches to making handmade eyewear through material and design research. She taught over fifty workshops on these techniques at craft-based schools and universities\, and lectured widely at symposia and conferences. Deb served on the Board of Trustees at the Haystack School from 2001-2010. \nDeb’s work in photography followed similar craft informed investigations that continue to yield innovative work. From early work in black and white in the 1970’s through experimental work in graduate school and while teaching at OCAC\, Deb’s radar always included a lookout for darkroom access. While learning about wet plate techniques\, a chance demo on the use of a flatbed scanner to create digital negatives caught her imagination\, leading to an obsession with making complex still life images of the flora and tiny fauna of the gardens in her neighborhood. A recent commission by the Oregon State Treasury Resiliency Building brought her curiosity to investigate the endangered Fender’s Blue Butterfly with its nectar and food sources. And although her commission to wrap the exterior of a building\, the Palos Verdes Art Center\, resulted in the very largest scale work she’s ever done\, most people’s introduction to Deb’s work is on their way through the Portland International Airport whose permanent collection includes twelve of her works from “A Year in the Willamette Valley”.

SUMMARY:Jon Christopher Meyers\,  A portfolio: twenty years of crafting photographs
DESCRIPTION:Jon Christopher Meyers\,  A portfolio: twenty years of crafting photographs \nMarch 7th through March 31st\, 2023\nOpening Reception: March 10th\, 2023  5:30 – 7:30 p.m.\nArtists Talk: March 21st at 6:30 p.m. at the Emerald Art Center \nEmerald Art Center\n500 Main St.  Springfield\, OR 97477\n(541) 726-8595\nOpen Tuesday through Saturday\, 11 – 4 p.m.  Second Friday\, till 7:30 p.m.\nphotographyatoregon.org \nFree and open to the public \nJon Christopher Meyers is a Eugene-based commercial photographer who crafts photographs in the Pacific Northwest and throughout the United States. His work includes portraiture\, architectural photography and outdoor and landscape work. He works extensively with people with disabilities\, meeting their needs to craft great photographs. He taught and lectured at Lane Community College for over 4 years and leads workshops and classes. \n“Photographers mark time with each and every still frame that they make. In the past twenty years I’ve watched my career evolve and my approach to what I do change. With more experience comes more planning\, more nuanced and purposeful lighting\, and finally refining the narrative of the photograph to tell a deeper story… \nBeing a successful photographer is more than just delivering photographs. Developing relationships\, building trust with clients and managing the business has been instrumental to having had a long career. \nAlmost half of the work is landscapes . . . The second half of the work is from a variety of projects. Location\, studio\, people\, raptors\, architectural spaces. These are a few highlights.” \nhttp://www.jonchristophermeyers.com \n

SUMMARY:Andy Batt's Canyon Photo Float at Pro Photo Supply
DESCRIPTION:Andy Batt’s Canyon Photo Float \nFebruary \nPro Photo Supply\n1112 NW 19th Ave\nPortland\, Oregon 97209\n503-241-1112\nhttps://prophotosupply.com/ \n  \nAt Pro Photo Supply’s Store Gallery you can view a group show from Andy Batt’s July 2022 river trip & workshop. Andy led a group of photographers down the Green River in Utah\, and the work they created is beautiful. Please visit the store to see the work. \nhttps://prophotosupply.com/blogs/gallery/store-gallery-february-2023-andy-batts-canyon-photo-float \n“There is a sense of amazement when the dawn light wakes you up after sleeping under the stars listening to the river. You realize your “job” today is to experience that light\, take some photos\, and then head downstream surrounded by jaw-dropping scenery. And you get to do that for 8 more days. I was lucky to lead a group of photographers down the Green River in July 2022. I was lucky to take the trip myself\, but even more so because I could share an incredible place with others. I got to see the landscape through their eyes and experiences. I was rewarded with a week of comradery\, talking shop\, deep diving on “what is a landscape photograph?” and seeing how changed everyone was by the end of the trip. At the end of it\, we have our memories and our photographs. In a way\, these photographs are memories put on display. I am incredibly proud of this work — everyone made creative\, moving\, and inspirational images. I hope that you enjoy the experience of seeing them. -andy batt\, Trip Leader\, Educator\, Photographer\, Rafter \n  \n

SUMMARY:Laura Kurtenbach\, “Femme Noir”
DESCRIPTION:Laura Kurtenbach\, “Femme Noir” \nFebruary 11th\, 2023 – March 8th\, 2023\nArtist Reception: Saturday\, February 11 from 4- 7pm \nLightBox Photographic\n1045 Marine Drive\nAstoria\, OR 97103\n503.468.0238\ninfo@lightbox-photographic.com \n“Femme Noir” is a reaction to how our culture represents women\, both in my own experiences and especially in the media. As an artist I have always been interested in how women have been\, and still are\, presented in our society; often as victims\, something to behold\, to covet\, to control\, to be seen\, not heard\, nothing less or more than beautiful objects. This work cannibalizes ideas found in popular media/culture and refocuses them to address feminist issues and concerns. The end result is a photograph\, utilizing mixed media- including collage\, sculpture and light as a way to create images which can open the conversation about how women are represented and to help support and empower us all. \n

SUMMARY:Rich Bergeman\, More Than Meets the Eye
DESCRIPTION:Rich Bergeman\, More Than Meets the Eye \nJanuary 27 – March 17\, 2023\nOpening Reception Friday\, January 20\, 4-7pm \nUmpqua Valley Arts Center\n1624 West Harvard Ave.\, Roseburg\, OR 97471\nTuesday – Friday 10am-6pm\nuvarts.com\n541-672-2532 \n  \nAn exhibit of 25 recent works by Corvallis photographer Rich Bergeman explores the transformative effects of infrared light on a variety of Northwest landscapes\, including Oregon’s High Desert\, the Cascades\, the Central Coast\, and the Willamette Valley. \nThe show gets its title\, “More Than Meets the Eye\,” from the fact that the infrared spectrum lies outside the normal human visible light range. Infrared cameras record vegetation and other organic objects as glowing highlights\, and inorganic landscape features\, like water and blue sky\, as deep dark values. \n“Over the past 30 years I’ve been learning how to see and express myself with a variety of different camera types and processes\,” Bergeman said. “Infrared\, which I took up seven years ago\, is my current addiction. It has a hauntingly beautiful quality that can transform otherwise ordinary views of the land\, sea and sky into something magical.” \nA retired instructor of photography and journalism at Linn-Benton Community College in Albany\, OR\, Bergeman has been exhibiting his photography throughout the Northwest since the 1980s. Originally a large-format film photographer and darkroom printer in silver and platinum\, he currently works primarily with digital infrared cameras and archival pigment printers.

SUMMARY:Meet The Guild at LightBox 2023
DESCRIPTION:Meet The Guild at LightBox 2023 \nSaturday\, January 14\, 4 – 7pm \nLightBox Photographic\n1045 Marine Drive\nAstoria\, OR 97103\n503.468.0238\ninfo@lightbox-photographic.com \nWe are happy and proud to announce the Guild at LightBox for 2023.\nRachel Wolf\, Jody Miller\, Julie Moore\, Angel O’Biren\, Jim Fitzgerald\, Michael Puff\, Loren Nelson\, Sam Blair \nThe Guild at LIghtBox is a group of eight Photographic Artists that are embedded in the Upper Floor of LightBox. The Guild exhibits work\, collaborates creatively\, and supports the Mission of LightBox Photographic Gallery. \nOn Saturday\, January 14th from 4 -7pm we invite you to Meet the Guild at LightBox.\nWe welcome them with new work on the walls and fresh ideas for a great year at LightBox Photographic Gallery. We wish to thank the Guild at LightBox for their endless creativity and helping make everything we do possible! \nJody Miller\nI have been a photographer for most of my life. The daughter of two fine artists\,  I grew up studying  painting and drawing. My first camera\, a Box Brownie\, was given  to me at age nine\, and the love affair with photography has never ended. In 1982  my work began in earnest after attending Ansel Adams’ workshop in Carmel\, California\, studying with some of the great fine art photographers of our time. \nFor 45 years I worked in the television industry in Hollywood as a designer and animator\, and my passion for photography melded beautifully with my profession. Now that I’m retired\, I have the freedom to practice my art and travel\, and am now able to live full time in my adopted home town of Astoria\, Oregon. \nI am primarily a landscape photographer; but any and all genres of fine art photography are represented in my work. I am eternally fascinated with the play of light against shadow no matter the subject matter. I especially love shooting at night\, when shadows and color always delight and surprise me. I am now fortunate to be a member of a superb group of photographers\, The Guild at LightBox Photographic Gallery\, since 2021. \nJim Fitzgerald\nMy love affair with the trees and the natural world began at a young age. In my youth\, family trips to Yosemite\, Sequoia and the Oregon Coast helped set me on my artistic path which I follow today. I am a camera builder\, educator\, bookbinder and publisher and most importantly an environmentalist. \nBeing a west coast photographic artist\, I specialize in intimate natural landscapes and the images I create are all produced with my hand built large and ultra large format cameras. Each fine art hand made print is a one-of-a-kind interpretation of the scene I have captured on my large sheet of film. I print my work exclusively in carbon transfer\, a process perfected in 1864\, allowing me to produce unique relief prints of exceptional depth\, tone and archival permanence. \nAt present\, my works are presented as framed prints and in 2018 I began creating and publishing my own fine press collector edition books and portfolios. These are printed entirely in carbon transfer with both images and text bound into the editions\, a first of its kind in book presentation. \nMy prints are displayed without glass because I feel that my work is alive and needs to breathe. Furthermore\, the archival qualities of my printing process means that nothing in the environment will affect the longevity of the print. Displaying the prints without glass allows the viewer to walk into my work and become one with the scene. Walk around these intimate scenes and see the subtle characteristics of a finely crafted carbon print. \nJulie Moore\nJulie Moore has been creating her evocative style of art for just shy of a decade. Though she has no formal training in photography\, Julie has felt captivated by the visual arts throughout her life. She was first inspired to pick up a camera many years ago while visiting Ireland in the company of a shaman\, and she has been photographing the beauty of her world ever since. Perhaps surprisingly\, she creates her captivating art primarily with her iPhone\, visualizing\, creating and processing her images with the camera she carries in her pocket. She also creates some of her images with her Holga\, a medium-format film camera. Julie makes many of her prints using the polymer-photogravure process. Drawn to this alternative method of printmaking\, she also employs other complimentary techniques during the intaglio printing process\, such as chine-collé and à la poupée. About her work\, Julie has said: !My images share the way I see the world\, its soft tenderness and extravagant beauty\, its agonizing loss and exquisite aging.  I see the overlooked aspects of life and nature. There is small and precious beauty in the unseen\, a part of everyday life that can go missing because it is not prominent\, yet has much to teach us.” Julie’s work has been shown in a number of juried exhibitions in various galleries across the country. \nMichael Puff\nMichael Puff is a retired software architect at Stanford University and a former theater set designer. He now concentrates his energy on Fine Art Photography using 19th century printing processes. \nAlways involved in the visual arts\, Michael began by studying painting. As a young adult\, he worked as a scenic painter. During his university years\, while pursuing a degree in Theater Arts and Egyptian Archaeology\, he designed scenery winning several San Francisco Bay Area Theater Critics awards. \nHis favorite subjects for photography encompass the natural world\, the surreal and dancers. “I’m partial to images which are like theater\, innovative\, thought-provoking\, and play with reality and illusion.” The captured movement created by performers forms a foundation for many of my images. \nMichael has actively pursued photography as an art form since 2004. Beginning the spring of 2011\, through workshops and private session\, he has studied platinum/palladium printing with master printer Mark I. Nelson\, creator of the Precision Digital Negatives system. Michael immediately fell in love with the hand made printing process. Additionally\, he has attended workshops led by Greg Gorman\, Elizabeth Opalenik\, Diana Bloomfield\, and Brian Taylor. \nPuff’s work has been exhibited at the Ryan Gallery at Art Intersection\, Gilbert\,AZ; de Young Museum\, San Francisco\, CA; and LightBox Photographic Gallery\, Astoria\, OR. His work is included in the book Digital Negatives with QuadToneRIP published in 2021 by Focal Press. Puff counts Greg Gorman\, Irving Penn\, and Kenro Izu among his greatest artistic influences. \nA current list of exhibits can be found at: http://mpuff.com/about.html \nAngel O’Brien             \nAngel O’Brien is a poet and an experimental alt-process photographic artist based in Portland\, Oregon. Her inspiration comes from the palimpsest that is life and an important part of her creative practice is wandering the streets wherever she happens to be collecting images on film of the things that catch her eye. Angel’s studio is cluttered with boxes and bags of bits and baubles that she collects on these wanderings\, everything from a bent nail or fallen shopping list to a rusted brake pad and a headless barbie doll.  She is constantly pulling into her work the fragments of place and time that simultaneously divulge and obscure. Her creative process is all about recognising how a time or a place intertwines with a person in a way that creates a moment\, and then turning these into a visual memory. \nJust after her 22nd birthday\, Angel was in a terrible car accident that left her in a coma\, and most of her twenties were spent recuperating. This experience of literally being broken and put back together again\, of finding something worthy under the rubble can be seen as a theme in her life as an artist. Because of this\, Angel has always seen potential in what others might discard. To this end\, in 2007 she completed Metro’s Master Recycler program. In 2009\, her now defunct restaurant\, The Ladybug Organic Cafe\, was chosen for the BEST Award by the City of Portland most notably for sending less garbage to the landfill in a year than the average family does in a month\, despite serving 25\,000 customers in that time. \nWorking with her hands has always come naturally to Angel\, and she spent six years renovating old houses after attending architecture school at The Cooper Union in NYC. She has never stopped with house projects and is forever reusing\, giving away and saving things that have more life left in them. \nThis passion for being creative with “waste” extends very much to her art practice. Everything from saving all the development process wastewater to be responsibly discarded by Metro to avoid its polluting our rivers to soaking paper in leftover gum emulsion to create a unique substrate upon which to make other prints. Using historical photographic processes\, such as platinum-palladium\, gum-bichromate and cyanotype printing methods\, Angel creates the surrealist montages for which she is well known. Each of her one of a kind pieces is lovingly made by hand in her basement darkroom. Though she lives in Portland with her daughter\, she has a lifelong case of wanderlust and is often found in other parts of the universe. \nRachel Wolf\nRachel Wolf is a professional photographer who specializes in camera-less photography\, alternative/antique processes\, and creates immersive environments through light-based installations. Growing up in Alaska\, the presence and absence of light has been profound in Rachel’s life and work. The aurora borealis gave her a direct experience of light as both transcendent and embodied. Since then\, light has been Rachel’s muse\, and her work is devoted to exploring and expressing its multivalent qualities in the field of photography and beyond. Rachel loves to inspire others by sharing her passion for light and photography as a professor and speaker. She also believes in the power of art as a collaborative endeavour and its raising of community. She is a founding member of FO(u)RT Collective\, a multi-disciplinary arts collective that creates/curates exhibitions and events. Rachel has exhibited both nationally and internationally including Germany\, Hungary\, New York\, San Francisco\, Los Angeles\, Cincinnati\, Seattle\, and Portland. Her work is held in both public and private collections. Rachel earned her BA from Hampshire College and her MFA from Pacific Northwest College of Art\, and can be found playing in her darkroom in Portland\, OR. \n“While my images are photographs\, the principle method I use to create is without a camera. Camera-less photography consists of the family of grams: photograms\, chemigrams\, and luminograms. As my camera-less process blurs the distinctions between these grams I call my work liminography\, which is an exploration of the essence of the photographic process that consists of standing at the threshold (a liminal space) and turning light into matter. By releasing our expectations of how a photograph is created and what emerges as the image\, we are invited to consider what a photograph is\, must or can be.” \nLoren Nelson    \nIn 1972\, Loren Nelson picked up a Deardorff 4X5 view camera and began to organize the world on a four-by-five-inch piece of frosted glass. Nelson photographed with film and used a traditional darkroom to produce silver gelatin prints for over 40 years. But recently\, he has incorporated a digital workflow\, using 35mm digital cameras and an iPhone to more spontaneously respond to his surroundings\, and printing his images with archival pigment inks on fine-art papers. Portfolios include landscapes\, seascapes\, botanicals\, driftwood details\, and “Under Wraps”\, a series of plastic-wrapped buildings. \nLoren Nelson’s photographs are in numerous public and private collections\, including the Portland Art Museum; the Hallie Ford Museum of Art\, Salem\, OR; and the Florida Museum of Photographic Arts\, Tampa\, FL. He is represented by the Portland Art Museum/Rental Sales Gallery in Portland\, OR\, and LightBox Photographic Gallery in Astoria\, OR\, and has been published in View Camera\, LensWork\, B&W\, Analog Forever\, and Shots Magazines. \n“If you want to learn what someone fears losing\, watch what they photograph.”    ~Anonymous \nThis quote resonates with my approach to photographing\, especially in recent years\, as threats to our environment are becoming more and more apparent. For many years I have been content to make carefully composed photographs that celebrate the beauty of our natural world. But lately\, I feel an urgency to photograph elements of nature that are in observable danger of disappearing. Working with digital cameras has expanded my vision and inspired me to connect more intuitively to my environment. I am currently working with Willamette Partnership providing images for The Oak Accord\, a voluntary conservation agreement with landowners in the Willamette Valley\, and focusing on their commitment to preserving and restoring Oregon oak savannas. I am also contributing photographs for the Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition\, for use in helping to protect and preserve our magnificent coastline for future generations. \nSam Blair \nSam Blair has a B.A. degree in English from the University of Denver\, and a J.D. degree from Lewis and Clark College of Law. He was a civil litigator for 35 years\, with offices in Oregon and Hawaii. When practicing\, he was named one of “Americas Best Lawyers”. He also had a weekly column in Kauai’s newspaper\, The Garden Isle. He has taught as an Adjunct Professor of Law at Willamette University College of Law in Salem\, Or. \nHe is afflicted with wanderlust\, and retired from practicing Law to pursue his passion of travel and fine art photography. As a self taught photographer\, he has explored over 90 countries\, and is the recipient of numerous photography awards. His images have been exhibited in galleries in both the U.S. and Canada. His mission is to capture “the essence of things” in other cultures\, beaches\, and the fascinating homo sapien. \nHe is also a haiku poet. His poems have been published in multiple literary anthologies and journals. He teaches haiku poetry on behalf of the Writer’s Guild of Astoria\, in Astoria\, Ore. \nSam is a longtime student of Zen Buddhism\, and trained in the Japanese martial art of Aikido\, where he earned a Black Belt. He lives in a Pine forest fronting Kyle Lake in Warrenton Or.

This show is titled “Passages: Moment by Moment.” \n“Each experience we have is here for a moment. That moment contains the profound and joyful\, rough and painful\, effort and loss\, and then becomes a memory. What was new in a moment yesterday\, becomes history today. And what is new today\, is history tomorrow.” \n“We preserve history in what we leave behind. Buildings\, graffiti\, petroglyphs\, highways and parks. To think that there have been hundreds\, probably thousands\, of human generations before ours and there will be thousands after ours. Often knowing the present\, but thinking it is permanent. And it changes into something new\, every moment.” \nThis show will present a view of present moments\, experiences and memorials. \nContact Grady at 360-607-5543\, gradytarbutton@yahoo.com\nhttps://www.photozonegallery.com/grady-tarbutton.

In the mid 80’s I discovered that it was possible to get access to musicians and bands by signing on to shoot live and posed photos for magazines and newspapers. For the last half of that decade I shot hardcore and punk bands multiple times a week in clubs around the Boston area. In 1990 I went west\, to Portland Oregon. While much of my work is of live music\, portraits have dominated my body of work over the span of decades; from the early 80’s to present day. The result of my experiences is a collection of intimate portraits of musicians\, friends and fans\, both live on stage and candid. My archive includes little seen pictures of Kurt Cobain\, Elliott Smith\, Jane’s Addiction\, Black Flag and hundreds of other punk and independent bands. My work has been published in books including Torment Saint: a Biography of Elliott Smith\, Cobain Unseen and Cobain on Cobain as well as in fanzines such as xXx and Suburban Voice and many magazines\, including Rolling Stone\, Mojo\, Q and Spin.” This show focuses on some of her NW bands collection. \nJJ  Gonson \nCONTACT: LINCOLN MILLER\, 503-224-5925\, lincoln@pushdotstudio.com \nPUSHDOT STUDIO: In addition to being an art gallery\, Pushdot Studio is a digital imaging resource for artists\, graphic designers\, and photographers and companies who require archival printing services; high quality scanning; artwork capture; exhibition mounting services; prepress retouching; color work and proofing. \n

SUMMARY:Photo Cascadia - Washington Evergreen Book Signing
DESCRIPTION:Photo Cascadia\, Washington Evergreen Book Signing \nNovember 30th\, 2022 at 7:00 pm PT \nElliot Bay Book Company\n1521 Tenth Avenue\nSeattle\, WA 98122\nPhone: (206) 624-6600\nToll Free: 1-800-962-5311\n10am – 9pm Daily\nhttps://www.elliottbaybook.com/ \nFor over 13 years\, a small group of the Pacific Northwest’s nature photographers have worked together as team Photo Cascadia. These seven photographers\, all of whom have their own thriving businesses\, formed the team to promote natures beauty and encourage its conservation. After successfully publishing their first book in 2020 with Portland based Timber Press called Oregon My Oregon – Land of Natural Wonders\, Photo Cascadia is back covering the majestically diverse landscape of Washington State. \nWashington Evergreen – Land of Natural Wonders also published by Timber Press is a collection of close to 200 photographs that showcase the beauty of Washington. From the thick rain forests of the Olympic Peninsula to the soaring peaks of Mt. Rainier\, these landscapes are a testament to the diverse environments that define Washington. For Photo Cascadia’s seven photographers—Erin Babnik\, Sean Bagshaw\, David Cobb\, Adrian Klein\, Kevin McNeal\, Chip Phillips\, and Zach Schnepf—this is a culmination of over 15 years photographing across Washington with these environments providing a constant source of inspiration. \nBeyond the beautiful photographs the foreword is from renowned lepidopterist Robert Michael Pyle\, an accomplished writer\, teacher and founder of the Xerces Society. He has written many books including the best seller The National Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Butterflies. In 2020 the movie The Dark Divide\, based on the book of the same title\, was released starring David Cross as Robert Michael Pyle. \nThe new book is available for order now and officially released on October 25\, 2022. To highlight some of the photos in their new book\, Photo Cascadia will be presenting at Elliot Bay Book Company in downtown Seattle on the evening of Wednesday November 30th along with signing any purchased books. Feel free to join the event to meet Photo Cascadia and hear more about the book. The book is available for purchase online wherever books are sold and available at many physical book stores in Washington. \nhttps://www.photocascadia.com/store/books/washington-evergreen/\nhttps://www.photocascadia.com/

SUMMARY:Paul Neevel - 60 Years A Retrospective – Photographs from 1962 through 2022
DESCRIPTION:Paul Neevel\, 60 Years – A Retrospective – Photographs from 1962 through 2022 \nNovember 4 – 26\, 2022 \nOpening reception: Friday\, November 11\, 5-7 p.m.\nWalk-through tour of the show with the artist and pot-luck reception\, Sunday\, November 20th at 2:30 p.m. \nEmerald Art Center\n500 Main St.\nSpringfield\, OR 97477\n541.726.8595\nOpen Tue – Sat 11-4 p.m.\nPlus the Second Friday every month\, 4-7:30 p.m.\nwww.emeraldartcenter.org \nFree and open to the public \nA retrospective exhibit of Paul Neevel’s 60 years as a photographer\, including images from 1962 to 2022. \nPaul Neevel grew up in International Falls\, Minnesota\, the “Icebox of the Nation\,” through grade school\, then completed high school in his father’s somewhat warmer home town\, Baldwin\, Wisconsin. Paul’s grandfather\, Ed Neevel\, was the “town photographer” in Baldwin for decades after opening a studio there in 1895. \nPaul developed his own interest in photography while he was a student at the University of Wisconsin\, and visited the Madison Public Library on a regular basis to read books on photography. He bought his first camera\, along with darkroom gear\, shortly after graduating in 1962 with a degree in meteorology. While continuing to work on a master’s degree\, he began to exhibit and sell his photographs. \nHis first exhibit in Eugene was a one-person show at the Gross Gallery\, on 13th near the University campus\, in 1968. He still lived in Madison and didn’t see the show in person\, but he moved to Eugene two years later to study at the University of Oregon\, one of the few schools to offer a degree in photography at the time. While studying for degrees in journalism and fine arts\, he was a teaching fellow for Bernie Freemesser\, UO professor of photography\, who established the Photography at Oregon Gallery in the UO Museum along with his students in 1966. \nDuring his first 20 years in Eugene\, Paul had a camera repair business at home. He photographed traveling art shows distributed by the Visual Arts Resources branch of the UO Museum of Art. He has since photographed artwork for many local artists and more than 150 weddings. \nPaul joined the Photography at Oregon Gallery committee in the mid-1970s. He was in charge of installing the monthly exhibits for more than a decade before the gallery was eliminated by a new museum administration in 1992. \nIn 1989\, Paul Neevel was invited to photograph and write for the Eugene Weekly (then called What’s Happening) following his 1988 Jacobs Gallery show\, 40 Portraits of Artists. His Happening People column in the Weekly has profiled more than a thousand local personalities nominated by readers since it first appeared in 1996. \n

SUMMARY:Anna Daedalus\, Kerry Davis and Jon Gottshall\, Open Channels
DESCRIPTION:Anna Daedalus\, Kerry Davis and Jon Gottshall\, Open Channels \nNovember 3rd – November 26th\nArtist talk: November 20th\, 2pm \nGallery 114\n1100 NW Glisan\,\nPortland\, OR 97209\nhttps://www.gallery114pdx.com/\n(503) 243-3356 \nGrounded Glass takes as its subject a Sitka spruce swamp and the muddy matter in its tidal flow. These close views of the swamp through mud-caked glass plates challenge the mythology of landscape hierarchy\, both in terms of beauty and value; and raise mud to another level. Our mark-making on the murky glass borrows from the cliché verre process to create windows through which elements of the landscape appear in varying degrees of clarity. In dialogue with Floodplain II\, which explores urban wetlands impacted by industry\, Grounded Glass focuses on a restored swamp after 150 years as rural farmland. The project is a continuation of Palūs\, a meditation on this same swamp near the mouth of the Columbia River. Through constructions\, photography\, and time-based installations\, Palūs observes the tidal wetland’s liquid respiration as the waters rise and fall each day.\n– Anna Daedalus & Kerry Davis \nFloodplain II is a continued exploration of the Columbia Slough\, an engineered remnant of the shallow streams that once braided the land along the Columbia River as it flows past Portland. Once a highly productive habitat\, it was drained and developed\, reflecting our historic belief that wetlands were places of disease and pestilence\, and that economic activity gave it actual value. Despite a century of industrial waste and runoff\, many creatures that depend on wetland habitat have somehow survived. More recently\, reflecting our shifting awareness\, the Slough has seen some efforts at restoration. Given time and space\, nature reasserts itself. \nOpen Channels\, our collaborative exhibit\, challenges historical perspectives and asks a provocative question: how do we revitalize a wetland\, or any damaged habitat\, when we are all too often still engaged in the same activities that diminished it? How do we remake our economic life into something not hostile\, but rather sympathetic to the environment\, to our mutual benefit?\n-Jon Gottshall \n

SUMMARY:Rich Bergeman\, The Land Remembers: Photographs Inspired by the Rogue River Wars
DESCRIPTION:Rich Bergeman\, The Land Remembers: Photographs Inspired by the Rogue River Wars \nSept. 26 – Oct. 27\, 2022\nClosing Reception and Gallery Talk Thursday Oct. 27\, 1-3pm \nThe Art Gallery\nUmpqua Community College\n1140 Umpqua College Road\nRoseburg\, Oregon 97470\nwww.umpqua.edu\n800-820-5161\nOpen Mon-Fri 8am-5pm \nAn exhibit of photographs that explore the landscapes of Southern Oregon’s 1850s Rogue River Indian Wars will be on display at The Art Gallery at Umpqua Community College Sept. 27 to Oct. 26. \nTitled “The Land Remembers\,” the exhibit features more than 20 black-and-white infrared prints by Corvallis photographer Rich Bergeman\, along with his research into one of the least remembered and yet bloodiest Indian conflicts in the Oregon Territory. \nBergeman said the goal of his project was “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.” \nThe various tribes who populated the southwest corner of what is now Oregon saw their homelands suddenly invaded in 1850 following passage of the Oregon Donation Land Claim Act and the nearly simultaneous discovery of gold in the region. Settlers and miners streamed in\, leading to conflict with local tribes. Skirmishes flared up multiple times between 1851 and 1854\, eventually erupting into all-out war involving the U.S. Army. It ended with the forced removal of the Rogue Valley and South Coast tribes to reservations at Siletz and Grand Ronde in 1856 in what descendants today memorialize as Oregon’s own “Trail of Tears.” \nAn Oregonian since 1976\, Bergeman is a retired instructor of journalism and photography at Linn-Benton Community College in Albany. The 73-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 \n
