September 1 Water Wallz Touching You

PICA's TBA festival is not performance only, it has visual arts too, and they are all free. The first, Water, by Claudia Meza, opens this evening. It involves sound from ferries, rivers, oceans, waterfalls, water taps, water bowls and many other watery things delivered by cassette audio tapes from large numbers of archaic playing devices. Meza is a performing musician in Explode Into Colors, has created the Sonic City PDX project, and the New Metrics program for composers. The show also includes a video work and Sonic City documentation. At the University of Oregon White Stag Building, http://whitebox.uoregon.edu/ 70 NW Couch 6PM-9 Free

August 31 Techne Rendered False Dawn

Flanks and Slopes is a new show by Zachary Davis, coprincipal of Appendix Project Space. The event also wins our copywriting award: "Form is a voracious concept, beginning somewhere in the front of my brain, where teams of cells replace flat swaths of stimulus from the back of the eye with semantic notions like edge, texture, and depth. In schematic, these transmuting units are funnel- shaped, and zooming out, the shape remains a funnel, with sensory overload crashing against the wide end and a thin stream of physical actions on the other.

Along with other perceived objects, this funnel-form guides my actions on a field of possibility with its own contours. If the shape of tomorrowʼs weather forecast has enough reality to guide my actions (rainfall by time by latitude by longitude), or the upward trajectory of food prices (by time by latitude by longitude), then the correlation of many such forms (food price by rainfall by time by latitude by longitude) is similarly real. Pull in enough metrics, and we find ourselves on a landscape of goals and dangers, shrouded in fog.

An amorphous body of accidental but durable forms is sprawled across this landscape, and we are a single branch probing outward, a little less blind than the others, generating variety at an unprecedented rate and sharing what we learn. I am interested in a feedback loop between speculative and physical form – in objects tuned to a stable state for their context, but engaged in the dimensional play of observation, cognition and navigation. I imagine a map fused with the territory, adding its own bright forms to the general mass."

Disjecta has done well with great guest curators. And it has been a mini-PICA, but finding artists at earlier stages in their careers.

There will be performances by The Tenses, MSHR, Future Death Toll, Matt Carlson and Jason Urick which will be remixed live by Experimental Half Hour.

DJ's Sahel Sounds and Citymouth dance out the evening.

Oregon Painting Society offshoot MSHR is not to be missed in the last slot of the evening. Their Appendix residency performance was stunning.

The more international artists exhibiting in Portland and Portland artists exhibiting internationally, the better. The gallery in a garage around the corner has had internatonal artists, including a Slovenian artist who had previously exhibited in Eurpoean museums. Now Ampersand hosts a show of artists from Argentina.

Photographer Lorena Guillen Vaschetti, the last left of a large Italian family was able to save only one box of vintage 35mm film slides discarded by her mother. She has rephotographed those images, changing the focus, in a show Historia, memoria y silencios, also published as a book.

August 20-24 Exposed

Ballet is a sport and an art. Ballet training has been a classic path from childhood to adulthood. It teaches listening and learning, coordination and coordination with others, it transform geek bodies to athletic ones. It was the powerhouse of W+K and Nike Creative which established athletic beauty in sports as a meme 30 years ago, copying ballet's fusion of athleticism and aesthetics, which began 600 years ago in Renaissance Italy.

The Oregon Ballet has teamed with White Bird Dance to open their rehearsal process for an upcoming piece to the public in a temporary studio outdoors. It is at Director Park SW Park and Taylor. There is a schedule each day including classes you can join, question and answer times, films and rehearsals. This is exactly the type of program that the arts levy in the Fall is designed to support.

Carlos Gonzalez presents his performance tonight What Goes Up Must Come Down at Recess Gallery. Unlike many descriptions of shows, this one makes sense:

"The stairway is used as a metaphor of achievement or loss of station. It’s a widespread, spatially-oriented metaphor for hierarchy in democratic society. ‘Climbing the social ladder’, we continue to gage our social status on our vertical mobility up or down the steps. In a performance designed for the space, Gonzalez narrates this anxiety with movement influenced by the physical structure of stairs and others. This movement mirrors the rapid fluidity between success and loss in a goal-oriented atmosphere.

Carlos presents intimate performances that explore barriers and secret byways of communication. Examining the knot of personal identity through abstracted acts of sport, Gonzalez offers his body as a source and site of meaning, thereby making physical the semiotic barriers that criss-cross daily existence."

August 9 Let's Go Art Camping

Fischli and Weiss are some favorite artists in my collection. They are idea artists spanning mediums and bodies of work. Many know them for their video The Way Things Go begun in 1985. They have made videos of cats and stills of airports. Mr Weiss passed in April.

Local art center YU presents a 52 minute video, The Right Way, made in 1982, before The Way Things Go. In the film, the artists perform in costume as Rat and Bear on a wilderness camping trip in the Alps. There are equally valid arguments that the work is stupid and that is is genius, more of this made in Oregon please. You decide. Highly recommended.

August 4 Filmmakers' Playground

Portland is an independent film town. A large contributor to that is Peripheral Produce. Soon after filmmaker Matt McCormick moved to Portland from Albuquerque, he wanted a place to show his work, and that of local experimental filmmakers, so he started a film series in 1996 over beers in nightclubs. Then he found that filmmakers needed a way to distribute their work on VHS tapes, so with Vanessa Renwick, he started the Peripheral Produce mail order distribution project in 1998. Later he started the Portland Experimental and Documentary Film Festival that brought international films and filmmakers to Portland between 2001 and 2009.

Fifteen years ago, in 1997, Peripheral Produce showed some films at the Hollywood Theater to benefit the start of renovations. Many of those films were on the Auto-Cinematic Video Mix Tape, Peripheral Produce Compilation #1. Tonight celebrates the remastering and re-release of the Auto-Cinematic Video Mix Tape at the very same renovated Hollywood Theater.

The tape included Miranda July's Atlanta made in 1996. July went on to start her own video chain letter, Big Miss Moviola and Joanie4Jackie (1999) compilation tapes for women filmmakers, and a series of showings across the country.

The original compilation included Slow Gin Soul Stallion by Animal Charm (3:10); Truth in Advertising - Negativland by James Towning (3:17); Airports for Lights, Shadows, and Particles by Scott Arford (8:30); Atlanta by Miranda July (10:55); A $323 Film by Russ Forster (1:00); Love Child by Trouser Shadow Productions - Bryan Konefsky (7: 45); Segment by Matt McCormick (5:33); Le danse d'individuelle by the Olympia Film Ranch (13:00); Warning by Vanessa Renwick (3:48); Ah-goo by Eric Ostrowski (1:42); Battles on the Astral Plane by Jon Raymond (2:07); and Atom & Heave by Julian Andrew-Lawrence (8:00).

The new release adds work by Andrew Blubaugh, Orland Nutt, Ashby Lee Collinson, Jim Blashfield, Chel White, Karl Lind Stephen Slappe, Ben Popp and more.

Tonight you can see the new and old spanning almost 20 years of Portland independent film. See the Auto-Cinematic Video Mix Tape www.hollywoodtheatre.org/peripheral-produce-auto-cinematic-video-mix-tape at the Hollywood Theater 4122 NE Sandy Blvd. One night only 8PM $7




Usually we do not promote music poster shows or sports themed art shows here. That is because they each have their own audience and aesthetics different than, though equally valid, distinct from the art we cover.

But sometimes we make exceptions and this is one. Tonight is a show of Portland artist-designed Timbers posters. The project is a benefit for Harper's Playground. Harper is a young girl with a rare disability. One of her favorite pass times is playing on the swing. So her parents launched a two year project to build a city playground for disabled kids and their parents, Harper's Playground.

Tonight's event is Art Takeover Portland: Operation Harper's Playground www.arttakeoverportland.com where the posters will be on display and for sale. It is at Coava Coffee 1300 SE Grand. Drop by in the day 8AM-6PM or for the event celebrating the project 7PM-10

August 2 Westside Art Openings+

August is the dog days, and in Europe everyone goes on vacation. This Thursday there will be wining and dining, seeing and being seen. Whatever. Many galleries have group shows. But here are some others.



Patrice Lumumba was elected the first prime minister, June 24, 1960, of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, when it became independent. On September 24 he was deposed by Mobuto Sese Seko, in a CIA-sponsored coup. On January 17, 1961, he was executed by Belgian troops, and his body disposed of by the CIA. Three days later, it was dug from the earth and dissolved in acid. He was a great leader and a powerful speaker, but ended up on the wrong side of the great game for control of post colonial resources in Africa. How ironic the struggle of the time, between the United States and its allies, and the Soviet Union and its allies, in the context of today's China move on Africa unopposed.

The story of post colonial Africa is fascinating and surveyed in the book The Fate of Africa, country by country. A dramatic retelling of the last year of Lumumba's life was made into a film. And the documentary, When We Were Kings, provides a portrait of Mobuto against the background of the great boxing match between Joe Frasier and Muhammad Ali in 1974. To diminish crime in the capital around the time of the match, Mobuto arrested hundreds of known criminals. He executed a portion reported between a tenth and a third of them chosen at random, and released the rest. Another report has Mobuto hanging pickpockets on the public streets at the time.

Lumumba's icon status has resulted in streets and squares across Africa named for him. He is still well respected. So many African liberation leaders subsequently descended into corrupt and undemocratic lifetime rule, while the hope for economic advancement promised everyday citizens was tragically foiled. Mobuto himself is a classic example, he used his diplomatic status to bring Congo diamonds to Europe where he amassed a personal fortune estimated at 3-10 billion US dollars, never recovered.

South African photographer Guy Tillim has visited many, and documented everyday life there, in a show of images, Avenue Patrice Lumumba.


Ricardo Teles has Terras de Preto. These Brazilian communities were historic settlements of slaves who escaped to form their own self governing settlements. Here Africans of many cultures formed families and their own new world order.
