Down on the Farm

There was an old song, back around the time of World War I, (and no, I wasn’t around then!) that went, “How you gonna keep’em down on the farm after they’ve seen Paree?”  Yep, the doughboys left their rural homes for the big war in Europe.  They came back as sophisticated urbanites.  Well, in this modern technological age, many, maybe most of us, have no idea what life in the country, on a working farm at home or abroad, is like.  The animals, even the threatening ones; the fresh, home-grown fruits and vegetables, the wonderful clean air, and the hard physical labor.  Let the Rental Sales Gallery take you back to a simpler, more rural setting, with pieces from our terrific artists.

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.
