In honor of the upcoming eclipse, I thought it appropriate to celebrate our celestial neighbors. The sun and moon certainly loom large in our psyche, and when they collide, the whole world can’t help but stop and look. Artists have always drawn inspiration from these great cosmic characters; here are but a few from our gallery.

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.
