The big event this evening is the Oregon biennial of contemporary art.
It has had many homes and curators. Out of town curators can shake up natural insular patterns and provide a path to show out of town in the future. This year the curators are Jackie Im and Anuradha Vikram. Vikram took her degree in critical studies at CCA, then for 20 years has operated worldwide, in addition to teaching at UCLA. Im is based in the Bay Area and was a visiting faculty member at PNCA-Willamette which has given her some familiarity to artists in Oregon.
