We all know what wonders of images we can capture with the (especially modern) technology of the camera.  When it comes to art, however, there is nothing “quick” about it.  Equipment needed for taking the picture and then printing it; well planned and executed set-up; waiting for, or arranging, just the right lighting, gesture, or expression, can take hours of the photographer’s time, money, and imagination.  It’s not unheard of, but it’s rare, to take an artistic photo by chance.  Whether it’s a film or digital camera, or a handy cell phone, art photography is a process, and can result in amazing images.

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.
