Saturday, March 10, 2012 at 5:00pm
until Sunday, April 15, 2012 at 8:00pm

Peoples Art of Portland will have an art opening Sat March 10th 5-9pm. The show will be up until April 15. "SPOTS OF TIME" Featuring Linda Womack, Fred Swan & poster artists Nate Duval. There will also be an artists talk with (Womack / Swan) March 31st from 2-4 with special Guests.
Location: PEOPLES ART OF PORTLAND-
is at Pioneer Place Mall, on the 3rd floor (across sky bridge from cinema).

Portland based Linda Womack, is a nationally recognized artist, teacher and published author (Embracing Encaustic: Learning To Paint with Beeswax). In 2010, she was the curator for Luminous Layers: Exploring Contemporary Encaustic, a wide ranging exhibit in Oregon featuring 65 artists and more than 160 pieces of art. Womack is a tireless advocate for the arts, a working artist and a flagship for encaustic artists in the Pacific Northwest.
She is joined in this show by one of her students, Fred Swan. Swan is a lifetime artist, being represented for many years by Quintana Galleries. His signature watercolors depicting Western scenes were recently replaced with a new art direction in his life. After a near-death experience in 2010, Fred returned to art making as a form of rehabilitation. His “new” art was a transformation from the watercolor realism into an abstract form in encaustic, examining geological forms and nature.
The duo has examined the phrase “Spots of Time” to reflect their combined works for this show. The term is coined from the poet Wordsworth’s The Prelude: “There are in our existence/spots of time,/that with distinct pre-eminence retain/a renovating virtue.” In essence, Spots of Time, truly does reflect both the medium of encaustic (wax hardened from a fluid state) to purist ideas of abstract beauty “frozen” in time.

Nate lives in Longmeadow, MA. He is 29 years old, designs, illustrates and handprints posters for rock show across the country. He lives by the mantra, "make a lot of stuff and see what sticks"

    Peoples Art Of Portland
  • Description
    Since opening in November 2010, Peoples Art of Portland Gallery has shown over 1000 local and national artists. The Gallery itself was a vacant toy store when the Peoples crew took over, using the remaining architectural structure as a backdrop for art instead of toys. B...eing inside of an actual mall, this gallery is a welcome place amongst high-end retailers and consistent retail fare. The gallery has always operated as a place for artists, run by artists, volunteers and a duo-curatorial team of artists Chris Haberman and Jason Brown, with manager (and artist) Heidi Elise-Wirz.

    For our 15th consecutive exhibition, we wanted to celebrate this notion, in essence to celebrate the volunteer artists and staff that make this gallery what it is. This show exemplifies our connection to the community and how the gallery works: artists showing artists, working together.

    The People of Peoples Gallery show consists of art work from the following

    Artists: : Ali Schlicting, Anna Magruder, Brin Levinson, Chris Haberman, Chuck Blooom, Dan Pillers, Heidi Elise Wirz, Jen Berry, Jesse Reno, Joel Barber, Kendra Binney, Kyle Gossman, Larry Christensen, Matt Schlosky, Melissa Dow, Sam Arneson, Roger, Wellie Glenn

    Poster Artist: EMEK, GUYBURWELL, Gary Houston

  • Jeff and Sabrina Williams: American Dream

    "For the past three years, we have been working on a series of photographs titled, "American Dream."  In this ongoing body of work, we create highly detailed sculptures made from mostly recycled and found materials.  We light these miniature scenes with a variety of continuous light sources and photograph with a high-resolution large format scanning back camera, producing highly detailed large photographs.  The final prints are true to the scenes we create; we do not digitally alter anything other than color balance and exposure.  In this aspect, we are deeply influenced by modernist and documentary photographers of the 20th century.  A merging of personal experience, dreams and an "on the road" documentation of American culture inspire these miniaturized illustrations."

    Peoples Art of Portland


    Marq Spusta was born in 1977 in Madison, Wisconsin. He was drawing prolifically within moments of leaving the womb. Marq continued developing his art along side graphic design while attending the UW-Stout. Marq has been living and working on the West Coast for about five years creating concert posters, album covers and all kinds of prints.

    Chris Truax, is a NW sculptural artist using recycled vintage car parts and scrap metals to create striking creatures that look as though they might just come to life and fly away.
    His characters are the kind one might see in big budget science fiction movies: Robotic, dangerous and beautiful, with a human, emotional quality that makes them warm, organic and so life like. 
    With the recent addition of LCD lights powered by solar cells, his work is taking on a new look and prying open new dimensions of sculptural wall art. 
    A member of ‘Pacific Northwest Sculptor’, Christopher’s art has been shown locally in over 10 galleries since 2009, including posing alongside "The Spruce Goose" and NASA equipment at The Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum, in 2010.

    For Artists. By Artists.

    ARTIST BIOS:
    Uncle Charlie
    Uncle Charlie was born 1969 in Houston Texas. He produces bright and bold graphic design posters for the music industry. He first applied his love of design during early high school years designing flyers for Dresden 45, a punk band he had with his chums. He has been creating art for music since the mid 80's and he currently designs posters for all kinds of events focusing mostly on music. He also continues to work now as a full time package designer designing packages for the food industry at a small design firm in Houston, Texas.
    Furturtle
    Travis Bone of Furturtle Show Prints has been drawing things since he was a tiny little boy. This led to drawing things for people as a much larger boy. Today, Travis screen prints drawings for concerts and all kinds of other events. He is also quite possibly the largest boy in the world.
    Chris Haberman
    Chris Haberman is a working artist and curator native to Portland, Oregon. All of his artwork is created from recycled objects, found material from the streets and alleyways of his hometown. A discarded cabinet door or table top quickly becomes the backdrop for an integrated puzzle-poem of figures and text, focusing on subjects like people, politics, the region, pop-culture, media, music, film and literature. Mayor Sam Adams has said that “Chris is the hardest working artist in Portland.” Chris’ first curatorship was a show for Adams in City Hall of Portland, Oregon, (Portland Pride, 2007). 
    In July 2009, Chris recorded selling over 6500 original works since 2001. In Jan, 2010, Chris was a feature artist for Oregon Art Beat on Oregon Public Broadcasting and was awarded “Portland Artist of the Year” for Barfly Magazine and he won a national artist contest in Las Vegas, competing with artists’ from10 other cities. Besides making art, Chris is also a fervent freelance curator and arts advocate, coordinating hundreds of Portland art exhibits with regional artists since 2001, founding first a non-profit (Portland City Art, 2009) and then Chris Haberman Presents and The People’s Art of Portland (with fellow artist/curator Jason Brown) both in 2010, to help local artists show their works.
    Jason Brown
    Painting is my vessel of communication. Art becomes a social and personal dialectic for me aimed at resolving inner and public conflict while simultaneously celebrating humanity. Through irony, humor, bold and subtle imagery I convey my vision on to others. I place my characters in settings where the rooftops of society have been cut off, and their idiosyncrasies become their vulnerabilities. By utilizing perspective I place my characters into a realm that seems comfortable and inviting, but contains certain disjointed qualities. My characters explode out of their setting while remaining stoic, as though they are unaffected by their environment. (A petty thief that steals the tip of a waitress left on the bar by a previous patron - the meat market patrons with their robust, sex crazed egos manipulating the masses with their decedent carnage). Some have suggested that my work has a masculine perspective, but I certainly do not represent or embody the masculine viewpoint. Ultimately, I paint individuals transfixed by their struggle, at times framing the daily lives of "Martyred Saints", "Super humans" that have routines and transgressions just as anyone else. (The musician who forgets he is mortal for a brief second and the lightning bolt of god touches his forehead, knighting this saint a forbearer of humanity - the husband who goes into a strip bar for directions, and is coincidentally spotted by his wife.) I am intrigued by the situational moments that could be explained, but the individual finds himself trapped by the circumstances. Through observation and perspective I make an earnest attempt at painting the honesty of humanity.

    Mercato Fine Art Gallery Opens in Hawthorne

     
      Dan Stiles
    What Dan is trying to do with his design is to say as much as he can by using as little as he can. He try's to pare down the idea and the form to its essence. Dan feels like visually the work is bolder that way. Posters should be bold; you're supposed to be able to see them from across the street. He also finds that once you strip off all the fluff you find out if your idea is any good or not.

    David D' Andrea
    David D’Andrea melds the draftsmanship of turn of the century illustrators, the hallucinatory vibe of the 60’s masters, and an organic pen and ink style that is unmistakably his own. His illustrations seethe with sinuous, accomplished line work and intentional rough edges. He draws from a variety of eclectic influences which show in the work: archaic lettering, obsessively detailed renderings of animals, and elements from numerous religions and cultures. His passion for the music/artist collaboration runs deep. It may be personified best by his ongoing series with the band OM, which shows the spiritual connection between an illustrator and the music as a circle of inspiration that spins infinitely, the Ouroboros.

    EMEK
    Emek has been referred to as "The Thinking Man's Poster Artist". Coming from a unique family of 5 artists, Emek has made his mark creating special limited edition silkscreen posters for live concerts around the world. Emek’ style thrives on attention to detail, coupled with layers of meaning in the artwork. His infusion of socio-political commentary into pop culture imagery has made his work instantly recognizable in the field. Emphasizing craftsmanship, his work is mostly hand-drawn in the tradition of the classic psychedelic posters from the 1960's. Born in the 70's Emek was also strongly influenced by the DIY punk flyers of the 80’s. "I appreciate the creative freedom this medium allows me because the bands generally give me total freedom as long as I advertise the show info. I am allowed to dip into the recesses of my imagination and see what spills out onto the page. This allows me to be my own art director and I am able to experiment with different concepts and styles to keep things fresh. Today's disposable culture paves the way for tomorrows collectable nostalgia...I'm just trying to make it interesting" Over the last 2 decades, Emek has created hundreds of posters for some of the top alternative bands and events, like Radiohead, Coachella, Queens of the Stone Age, Tool, System of a Down, Jane's Addiction, The Flaming Lips, to name a few, as well as album covers from Neil Young and Pearl Jam to Henry Rollins and Erykah Badu. Emek's work has been shown in galleries across the United States, Berlin, London, Tokyo, Belgium and Canada. He has been interviewed on CNN, featured in dozens of magazines and books, including covers of Juxtapoz magazine.

    Gary Houston
    Posters at Voodoo Catbox are pretty much hand made using traditional methods i.e. scratch board illustration or hand cut rubylith, and then hand pulled. Houston is a giant in the field, well known for his connection with the Portland Blues Festival, Willie Nelson, BB King, and a host of others.

     GUYBURWELL (King of the Wild Frontier) is an illustrator and painter and, more recently, a print maker currently living in Portland, Oregon. Known (yeah, right) for the flair of his line work, the odd and random scrapes, blunt ends and positive chaos with negative space, his work is organic at its root and full of pasty skinned naked red haired men on the surface.

    Joanna Wecht
    Joanna's design is hand grown and hand sown utilizing a tactile approach that belies current technologies, resulting in an organic and free form feel that hearkens to the earlier days of graphic design when practical application of materials and mechanical, rather than digital, was the state of the art. For Joannna Wecht, the state of her art is her statement about art.

    Justin Hampton
    Justin Hampton creates high impact imagery and is renowned as one of the leaders in the modern rock poster scene earning him international attention. His bold line work and sublime color palette mixed with a vivid imagination are unmistakable. His work can be seen in various galleries in Europe, Asia and Australia as well as in the U.S.

    Mike King
    Mike King is a graphic designer from Portland Oregon, not known so much the quality of his work, but for the quantity. If over the last few decades you have noticed the flyers that cover the phone poles of the cities of the Pacific Northwest, then the chances are good, you have seen some of Mike's work. When not making flyers, Mike has also designed CD and record covers for wide variety of artists, from Ben Harper to The Decemberists, from Pink Martini to Poison Idea, Mikes work cuts a wide swath through the landscape of popular culture. And if that last bit sounds like the typical bluster of a marginal artist trying to make his work appear more important than it really is, then you have hit the nail squarely on the head.

    Tyler Stout
    Tyler was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest. He’s done work for Burton Snowboards, Forum Snowboards, Libtech Snowboards, Nike, Adidas, Xbox, MTV, Grenade Gloves, Etnies, Sobe, The New Yorker, as well as bands like Flight of the Conchords, Phish and Tenacious D.
    He also does screen printed posters for movies, mostly for the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin Texas. After living in Bellingham WA, Charlotte, VT and Portland, OR, he currently resides in Brush Prairie, WA, next to the house he grew up in.

     DISJECTA PRESENTS 
    Loosing Themselves in a Distance to Far Away Heights
    A NEW INSTALLATION BY TANNAZ FARSI
     
       Gallery Hours: Fri – Sun 12pm – 5pm

    8371 N Interstate Avenue, Portland, OR 97217 / Media Contact: Julie Anne Herrin - julie@disjecta.org – (949) 294.9235

     
      In gathering information, Farsi – herself an Iranian-American – sought answers from Iranians from all walks of life: immigrants, those living in exile, refugees and those still living in Iran. Her conversations, conducted via email, focused on breaking through the American cliché of “living the dream” and engaging her participants in a more complex and meaningful discussion surrounding issues of nationalism and cultural identity as it relates to the individual.  Farsi attempts to conflate civic and devotional space in an effort to better understand the systems that both bind and loosen us from our geographic locations and cultural identities. The objects in the exhibition – simple, pared down forms acting as icons – together with the use of documents and drastic shifts of scale

    are reflective of Farsi’s larger body of work and make room for the personal to become political. The installation examines areas of public congregation and seeks to inspire conversation around the tension created between the actual space of the gallery and the psychological space the work occupies.

    Tannaz Farsi is the Assistant Professor in Sculpture at the University of Oregon in Eugene. Her work has been exhibited nationally at venues including the Tacoma Art Museum, the Urban Institute of Contemporary Art Grand Rapids, Michigan, Ohge Ltd., Seattle, Washington, and Sculpture Center, Cleveland, Ohio.  She has participated at residencies at Bemis Center for Contemporary Art in Nebraska and the MacDowell Colony in

    New Hampshire.  Her work has been acknowledged with an Individual Artist Fellowship from the Oregon Arts Commission, and this past year, Farsi was a finalist for both the Brink Award offered through the Henry Art Gallery in Seattle, Washington and the Portland Art Museum's Contemporary Northwest Art Award.  She received her BFA summa cum laude from West Virginia University (2004) and her MFA at Ohio
    University in Ceramics (2007). Farsi’s show at Disjecta is made possible through the University of Oregon Faculty Research and Creative Work Grant and the MacDowell Colony Fellowship.
     
    CURATOR-IN-RESIDENCE
    Jenene Nagy, Portland-based curator, has been appointed Disjecta’s first Curator-in-Residence. Throughout the 2011-2012 exhibition season, Nagy will present a series of solo shows featuring installation, site-specific and project-based works including many artists who have not previously had major exhibitions n Portland.
    Nagy is currently co-curator, with Josh Smith, of TILT Export:, an independent arts initiative that works in partnership with a variety of venues to produce exhibitions.
    The Curator-in-Residence program is the first of its kind in the region and allows for significant engagement with a broad range of artists. Rotated on an annual cycle, the program provides an opportunity for emerging local and national curatorial talent to develop and expand the scope of their practice through a series of exhibitions in Disjecta’s dynamic 3,500 square foot space.

     Education through Art

    By Jayhon Ghassem-Zadeh - News

    For centuries, Iran has been the home to some of the most beloved artists and ingenious works known to man.  Using art as a vehicle to promote positive change and social awareness is a concept that has disseminated throughout the world since the early days of the Persian Empire.

    It’s only fitting, therefore, that Iranian-Americans are turning to the pen, brush and camera to express their ideologies and promote awareness of our rich culture, history, geography and the political/social inequities that exist in Iran.

    Sky of Red Poppies

    Cara Tomlinson’s painting  

     

    “These recent paintings and works on paper are concerned with the process of construction: how houses, paintings and bodies are made,” Tomlinson said. “They refer to the protection a dwelling, like a fortress, provides us; but also to the permeability of the house or body; the windows, doors, openings, through which life comes and goes, the shaky, fragile and temporary construction of shelter.”

    Tomlinson has been shown nationally in solo and group shows, including: the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts, the Everson Museum in Syracuse, NY; Davenport Museum of Art and Des Moines Art Center, in Iowa; and the Charles Allis Art Museum in Milwaukee, WI.  She has been awarded several residencies, most recently: Anderson Center for Interdisciplinary Studies, Virginia Center for Creative Arts and Constance Saltonstall Residency in Ithaca, NY. Tomlinson graduated with a master’s degree in Painting from the University of Oregon and received her undergraduate degree from Bennington College in Vermont. She currently is an Assistant Professor of Painting at Lewis and Clark College.
