In our PDX booth visitors will discover new, fresh artists and revisit artists they already know. We will present the work by three artists Amjad Faur, Johannes Girardoni and D.E.May. Each is distinct from the other yet they share a certain quiet intensity addressing space and form that has an emotional content. A peek in our closet will reveal works by additional PDX artists such as Cynthia Lahti, Nancy Lorenz, Storm Tharp, Masao Yamamoto, Kristen Miller and Adam Sorensen.

PDX welcomes Heather Watkins!
We are proud and happy to announce that PDX now represents Heather Watkins. Known to many collectors and curators in Portland already, Watkins has created prints at Pace Prints and Sitka Center for Art and Ecology. She received her MFA from the Rhode Island School of Design, and has taught at Lewis & Clark, Rhode Island School of Design and Massachusetts College of Art, among others. Her work draws upon the expressive potential of many materials (ink, thread, rope, twine, wire, yarn, netting) in pursuit of lines and forms that express a complex of emotional or physical states.

"Interior Margins" - curated by Stephanie Snyder

Lumber Room
November 12, 2011 - January 30, 2012
419 SW 9th Ave
11 am to 6 pm

"Interior Margins" was born around a dinner table in May of 2010, when eight women artists gathered to converse about painting and abstraction with Lumber Room founder Sarah Miller Meigs and Reed College curator Stephanie Snyder, within the Lumber Room's inaugural installation by San Francisco artist Léonie Guyer. The ideas discussed that evening catalyzed the desire for a further exhibition, one bringing together work of an intergenerational group of Northwest women artists who are transforming the diverse legacies and practices of abstraction for a new era.
