Stephen Eichhorn

2012-01-17T17:08:00.000-08:00

Go check my dudes show if you're in that area-

Chicago artist Stephen Eichhorn creates delicate hand-cut paper collages from photos of foliage—palm fronds, grasses, leaves and flowers. Quiet and poetic, Eichhorn’s work radiates a complex harmony between the natural and handmade world. Eichhorn’s new work has on black backgrounds creates a floating image in cosmic space. Though complexly layered and intuitively organized, the work exudes a simple elegance. Eichhorn’s floral arrangements suggest an underlying structural rhythm to growth, adaptation and accumulation.

The painstaking and delicate method Eichhorn uses to make his pieces mirrors the natural process of fertilization, evolution and exuberant proliferation. Eichhorn’s new work begins to loosen his collage style, reducing or abandoning framework and creating draping compositions. The work embodies the delicate architecture of orchid petals and his larger free-form installations take on the appearance of blankets quilted from Japanese maple leaves.

Please join us for a panel discussion with Stephen Eichhorn, Cody Hudson and Luke Batten, moderated by curator Aaron Ott on March 2, 2012 at 6:30 pm. This program is free and open to the public.

Decay Music

2011-12-07T12:43:00.000-08:00

This is perfect for today.

Decay Music is the 1976 debut album by Michael Nyman, released on Brian Eno's Obscure Records music label. The two works on the album, 1-100 (composed 1 December 1975) and Bell Set No. 1 (1974) are both built around the musical concept of decay. Both of these experiment with percussive, long decay musical forms. 1-100 is played at half the speed it was recorded. It was written for Peter Greenaway's film of the same title, but rejected because it was too long. It was inspired by Frederic Rzewski's Les Moutons de Panurge, which Nyman often played with the Scratch Orchestra.

"Art is Forever is a project by Jason Sturgill that attempts to foster a more meaningful connection between the art museum and its visitors. Several Portland artists have been selected and given the opportunity to create illustrations inspired by their visits to the Portland Art Museum. These illustrations will be made available as free tattoos on a first come, first served basis throughout the entire day."

SWISS

2011-11-21T17:19:00.000-08:00

The exhibition is based on an extensive research project in which hundreds, in part long-forgotten photobooks were brought together and critically examined. The selection of works resulting from this process forms the backbone of this new history of Swiss photography, which is also being published as a book.

The publication presents the individual works with extensive picture spreads and texts by 23 authors – a chronological reference work that also traces the process that has seen the photograph change from a document into a means of subjective and artistic expression.

Lawrence Weiner Blocks

2011-11-17T13:42:00.000-08:00

Synopsis: "If you can respect a stone, you can respect another human being, you have to know why. And that was about it, but as far as we have societies built on an xx and an xy structure, something I’ve been fighting most of my life because I don’t get it."

Lawrence Weiner, Bomb Magazine, May 2010

Nine wooden blocks designed by Lawrence Weiner that, when arranged or stacked, create different variations on a equation that proposes a visual deconstruction of the X and Y chromosomes that typically assign gender to through the combinations XX and XY. This artist multiple was created through a collaboration between Weiner, Yvon Lambert Gallery (Paris, France) and Third Drawer Down (Victoria, Australia)

Cycle

2011-11-14T14:03:00.000-08:00

The Cycle consists of 8 experimental short films that embrace and
discover movement through camera. The films are shot in the extreme
and wild landscapes of a remote group of islands far up in the North
Atlantic Ocean, the Faroe Islands.

Fragmented stories are unraveled in these open and empty spaces,
enhanced by the uncontrollable and extreme weather conditions that
have an important character in all the films.

Deprived from dialogues and narratives, the repetitive patterns
of movements, costumes, music, landscapes and other components
create an intriguing atmosphere that takes the viewer to a surrealistic
yet hauntingly beautiful universe.
