I love many aspects of art. There are the pigments, the shading, the contrasts, and even the frames used, or not used in some cases. But the one area I really love is the creativity in materials used, beyond canvas and oils. Here at the RSG artists use wire mesh, porcelain, glass, steel, wood and stone. Come and check out these wonderful curios.

The Portland Art Museum’s Annual Staff Show »

The Rental Sales Gallery, Portland Art Museum recognizes and honors the Indigenous peoples of this region on whose ancestral lands the museum now stands.

These include the Willamette Tumwater, Clackamas, Kathlemet, Molalla, Multnomah and Watlala Chinook Peoples and the Tualatin Kalapuya who today are part of the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, and many other Native communities who made their homes along the Columbia River.

We also want to recognize that Portland today is a community of many diverse Native peoples who continue to live and work here. We respectfully acknowledge and honor all Indigenous communities - past, present, future - and are grateful for their ongoing and vibrant presence.
