SUMMARY:Christopher Rauschenberg\, Gathering: A Photographer’s Collection
DESCRIPTION:Christopher Rauschenberg\, Gathering: A Photographer’s Collection \nJuly 26 – November 23\, 2025 \nJordan Schnitzer Museum of Art\n1430 Johnson Lane\, Eugene\, OR 97403\n541-346-3027\nWednesdays 11am – 8pm\, Thursdays through Sundays 11am – 5pm \nGathering: A Photographer’s Collection presents a wide-ranging selection of photographs from the personal collection of Portland\, Oregon based photographer and curator\, Christopher Rauschenberg. Over five decades\, Rauschenberg has compiled a truly distinctive archive of photographs encompassing a wide array of themes\, styles\, uses of the medium\, and range of subjects and content. This important resource represents a diverse mix of international and nationally emerging and established photographers. \nRauschenberg typically acquires photographs directly from the artists or from non-profit community-based arts organizations exhibiting or representing their works. \nRauschenberg has also traveled extensively and participated for decades as a highly regarded reviewer of photography portfolios at international gatherings of specialists who utilize and support opportunities for working creative photographers. \nIn Gathering\, one will find a wealth of individual points of view that\, when engaged\, may broaden each of our own visions: whether those considered perspectives are personal\, familiar\, social\, cultural\, political\, or spiritual. \nChristopher Rauschenberg reflects on his building of the collection: \n“At the core of what I’m doing is acquiring prints directly from photographers. That’s where I get my real satisfaction in collecting. With photography\, one literally sees the world through someone else’s eyes\, and we each have a different way of looking at the world around us. Having seen the work of thousands of photographers\, I’ve had a great many opportunities to discover new ways of seeing. That has really been the primary enrichment of my life\, and I am excited to share that with you through this exhibition.” \nGathering: A Photographer’s Collection was curated by JSMA Associate Curator of Photography\, Thom Sempere.

SUMMARY:Greg Giesy\, Colors of Nature
DESCRIPTION:Greg Giesy\, Colors of Nature \nNovember 1 through December 31.\nArtist reception on Saturday November 1 from 1-5 pm.\nClosing reception will occur on Saturday December 20 from 1-5 pm. \nThe O’Brien Photo Gallery\n2833 Willamette\, Ste. B.\nEugene\, OR 97405\n(541) 729-3572 \nHours will be from 1-5 on week days\, call to make special viewing arrangements.\nemail: picmac1945@gmail.com\nweb: https://www.waltobrien.net/the… \n\n“As people go through life on a daily basis\, the colors of nature around them are for the most part generalized. The sky is blue\, the tree is green\, and the squirrel is brown. At rare times during the year people may notice the bright red of a rose in spring or the yellow\, orange\, and red of leaves in fall. \nPainters expand that pallet of nature’s colors by mixing their paints to find the shades of that red rose\, lighten and darkening the blue of the sky\, or noting that there are several shades of yellow\, orange\, and red in those fall leaves. Looking closer they may note some green in the yellow and some brown in the orange of those leaves. But even most painters don’t see like a camera’s photographic vision picking up multitudes of tones\, shades\, and colors. \nPhotographers take what the camera records and turn that into what the photographer sees. That vision may be idealized or as true to human vision as the photographer can make it. The choice is the photographers’ to decide how to show the colors of nature.” \nAs an award-winning nature photographer Greg has a keen interest in the state of not only our wild places but our urban environment – the world outside our door. His years of experience have honed his eye to focus on and appreciate the details present in nature. He believes that the average person should spend more time to notice and focus on where we live. People need to connect\, appreciate\, and protect the world around them. \nGreg has been a serious photographer for over fifty years. He has ranged in styles from fine art black and white photography to architectural photography\, to color commercial product macro photography\, to event photography\, and onto nature photography which includes wide-angle\, macro\, and telephoto in both color and black & white photos of plant\, flower\, landscapes\, bird\, and other wildlife. \nHis photography is enhanced by his background in architecture\, jewelry\, and landscape design and construction. To help him produce the maximum detail in his digital photos he now uses the Canon R5 Mark II mirrorless camera with better focus tracking\, exceptional clarity\, stabilization\, and extreme telephoto lenses as shown in the photographs that are on display. \nTo see more of his photography\, go to his website www.greggiesyphotography.com or he can be reached at his email address ggsb@continet.com. \nHe also has photos with other members’ of PhotoZone on their website www.photozonegallery.com under Online Gallery and Member Projects.

SUMMARY:Outside by Keith Z at [things/found] Atelier
DESCRIPTION:Outside by Keith Z at [things/found] Atelier \nNovember 6-29\nOpening Reception- First Thursday\, November 6th\, 5-9pm \n[things/found] Atelier\n1704 NW Johnson Street\nPortland\, 97209\n(503) 512-9719\nHours: Thursday-Friday-Saturday 1pm to 6pm\nwww.thingsfoundatelier.com \nOutside by Keith Z is a photographic collaboration with Portland’s homeless community\, combining photography\, social work\, and storytelling in order to create a better understanding of that community. \nThe work is comprised of portraits of community members\, environmental photographs of the circumstances in which they live\, long form interviews with these individuals\, and stories about those who are gone. All of the photos and stories are made collaboratively with community members\, with full consent and knowledge\, based on trust\, relationships\, and shared experience. \nOutside establishes proof of life for community members who are willfully ignored by family\, friends and larger society. Both the images and the storytelling focus on the human dimensions of an existential\, life threatening struggle that are often eschewed in favor of more sensational fare. The book provides space to become intimate with community members they might never have known\, the hope being that with better understanding comes better fellowship and better solutions. \nKeith Z lives\, photographs and reaches out to his community in Portland\, Oregon. A recovering addict and alcoholic who was homeless himself for some years\, lived experience informs his work. He has worked in a variety of transitional housing facilities and clinics. \n[things/found] Atelier is half art gallery and half art/vintage/jewelry store attached to the studio for local Portland artist\, Angel O’Brien. The gallery and store are open Thursday through Saturday 1-6pm\, as well as by appointment or whimsy.
