NICE TRIM

This show is awesome. Sometimes life gets you down and you aren't very happy, then you make some art with friends, and everything is better. This month we have a group show with Ryan Burghard, Amber Moss-Jensen, Damien, and myself. Expect lots of innovative works with paper, animation by Damien and a rocking soundtrack. After the gallery closes at 10pm, we will be shifting over to the EAST END on Grand for another art opening. See you sometime between 6 and 10.

November First Thursday Opening

The opening for "Baptized in the River with Two Dips and a Flirt" was fun, colorful and interactive. People loved the Ryan Trecartin video, you could watch it for hours. The Adios Motherfuckers interactive installation was a huge hit. I learned that people loved to create icons of themselves with glue, scraps, glitter, and paint. Thank you to all the patrons who showed up, and the artists for putting it out there. Special thanks to Lauren for putting the show together and the hours installing it. Come by next month for a group show of Portland artists. We also have a few pieces still available from the JSHEA9 show if anyone is interested.

Ryan Trecartin

This is flyer number two for November's first Thursday show. This one features still shots from Ryan Trecartin's video, "A Family Finds Entertainment".

Ghosts From My Memories Opening

Great show! Tons of people showed up from far and away. J.Shea was in the house along with Yoskay Yamamoto from L.A., some peeps from Santa Barbara and Keiko from Miami. Everyone showed up early and stayed late, but the work was amazing and there was no other place I would rather be. I was entranced by the stop motion video of the mural painting for hours. It was our best show yet. If you haven't seen it, we will be open on Saturdays from 12-5pm, so come and see it out before the end of the month. Also, check out J.Shea's work at his link and stop by next month.

Ghosts From My Memories

Our October first Thursday show is jshea. Joe comes to town this month with a collection of new work in sculpture, assemblage, carvings, and found objects. Joe's creative sculptural pieces demand you fill in the blanks with your own narrative story. Come and meet Joe and his work at the opening reception, Thursday October 4th 6-10pm, at IGLOO 325 NW 6th #102, Portland Oregon. Live soundtrack by DJ Magneto.
