SUMMARY:Black and White Infrared Photography by Donald Myers
DESCRIPTION:Black and White Infrared Photography by Donald Myers \nJanuary 3 – February 26\nReception on Saturday January 3 from 1-4 pm \nThe O’Brien Photo Gallery\n2833 Willamette\, Ste. B\nEugene\, OR 97405\n(541) 729-3572 \nOpen weekdays from 1-5 pm. Call to be sure we are open or to reserve a viewing time. \n“Through our journey in life there is struggle and reward. I try to make sense of it all by taking photos. I’m fascinated by the people and places I encounter along my journey and try to document it in interesting ways. I began my photo journey in Vietnam over fifty years ago and have been documenting my journey ever since. I studied photojournalism at Arizona State University. \nI’ve had many occupations but I never lost my enthusiasm for photography. No matter how small the space I lived in\, I always had a darkroom. Photography is a passion that rewards you throughout your life. \nOver the past five years I have become interested in infrared photography. I have two camera that I had converted to Infrared. One is called a 590 conversion and the other is an 830 conversion. The 590 sensor allows some of the normal color light waves through and I can create color infrared photos. With the 830\, it is completely black and white. Capturing the world in infrared has given me a new range of possibilities for creating captivating images.” \nDon Myers

SUMMARY:Up the Down Escalator by Gabriel Francis at Franklin FOTO
DESCRIPTION:Up the Down Escalator by Gabriel Francis at Franklin FOTO \nJanuary 2026 (on view for the full month) \nReception: January 3\, 2026\, 5 to 8 p.m.\nFeaturing live music by Growing Pains \nFranklin FOTO\n8953 N Lombard St\,\nPortland\, OR 97203\nWednesday – Sunday\, 12 p.m. to 8 p.m.\nhttps://www.franklinfoto.org/\nFree \nUp the Down Escalator is a street photography and handmade collage exhibition by Gabriel Francis\, presented as Franklin FOTO’s January exhibition. \nThe work invites viewers to slow down\, look closer\, and reconsider what we define as beautiful by centering moments and individuals often overlooked or dismissed. Francis is drawn to struggle and resilience\, and to the contrast between hardship and the strength people carry through it. Emotional\, mental\, physical\, financial\, and spiritual challenges are treated not as spectacle\, but as shared human realities\, approached with care\, dignity\, and respect. “These photographs are not meant to be sensational\,” Francis notes. “They are meant to be seen without judgment or pity\, and appreciated as reflections of our shared humanity.” \nIn early 2025\, Francis expanded the project through a series of handmade collages that combine photographic prints with found and weathered materials. Inspired by boarded up buildings\, notes left on walls and benches\, and objects discovered on the ground\, the collages create tactile environments for the photographs to exist within. Text and material fragments extend the work beyond documentation\, allowing it to function as lived artifact. \nGabriel Francis is a photographer whose practice centers on human connection\, public space\, and emotional honesty. Grounded in curiosity and movement\, his process is shaped by walking\, riding public transit\, talking with strangers\, and sustained engagement with everyday environments. Through photography and mixed media\, Francis explores the tension between light and dark\, resilience and vulnerability\, and the shared realities that bind us together.

SUMMARY:Rich Bergeman : The Paleo Lakes Project
DESCRIPTION:Rich Bergeman : The Paleo Lakes Project \nJan. 9 – March 13\nOpening Reception: Friday\, Jan. 9\, 4-7pm \nGallery II\nUmpqua Valley Arts Center\n1624 W. Harvard Ave.\nRoseburg\, OR 97471\nwww.uvarts.com\n541-672-2532\nOpen Tuesday through Fri 10am-6pm \nDuring the late Pleistocene—over 10\,000 years ago—Eastern Oregon was covered by vast inland seas that\, over the millennia\, slowly dried up\, leaving the arid steppe landscape we’re familiar with today. The footprints those paleo lakes left behind—the dust-blown playas and shallow salty seas sprinkled across the High Desert—are what inspired this project. \nHistory has always driven my work\, but I usually focus on the human story\, like the pioneer communities that sprang up or died out on the desert\, depending on the availability or scarcity of water. This project is different. Here I’m looking back on a story that was centuries in the making\, and it’s not something I was able to see at first. It’s taken years of seasonal forays into the High Desert to appreciate the spare elegance of its landscape\, with its wide horizons and immense skies. \nThe challenge was to find a fresh way to share this story\, and I found the answer in b+w infrared photography. Stripped of the color that can distract from form\, and emboldened by IR’s dark\, brooding skies\, the High Desert becomes a dramatic panorama where the forces of nature and time are more readily revealed.
