Spring Show Artist Showcase Part 4

June 9, 2019

It’s a double-blog week this week. As well as celebrating our upcoming collaborative exhibition with Cannon Beach Arts Association, we’re also continuing to shine the spotlight on the some more of the artists who display their works here at RSG.

In this blog, we’re focusing on five more artists, showing both their fantastic diversity and talent. Each of these pieces is part of the Spring Show and many of them are currently available in the gallery to rent or purchase. To see these pieces and others created by our artists, visit the Artists page on our website.

 

Karen Wippich

Karen Wippich, Frida’s Farm

Karen’s work has been displayed all across the USA; her striking expressionist acrylic works showing the influence of her years of working as a graphic designer. As she explains “My work explores personal and political narratives through enigmatic imagery that can be at once both playful and satirical. Evidence of my long career in graphic design is apparent by my artful use of typography, grid lines and patterns.”

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.
