The Tacoma Art Museum just added Section of the I-705, On a Wednesday, for Electric Piano by Lou Watson '15. The piece was filmed from the roof Tacoma Art Museum and overlooking the I-705, Delin docks and waterway. The lanes of the road become the lines on a musical staff. The museum had previously commissioned the musical piece for the 2016 NW Biennial.
Former faculty members MK Guth and Arnold Kemp both opened shows at Cherry & Lucic, one of Portland's newest and most original curatorial projects. Cherry & Lucic is directed by John Knight MFA '13, Kyle Raquipiso '11, and Eleanor Ford. Sammie Cetta '16 is Director of Publications and Printed Matter, and Cristin Norine MFA '13 is Principle Photographer.
CE grad Gwenn Seemel has certainly been busy: her book project, Crime Against Nature, celebrates the true diversity of behaviors surrounding gender roles and sexuality. This project was recently censored in small-town America and praised on the Internet. A version of it opened in Belgium last month.
MA Critical Theory + Creative Research grad Peter Falanga '13 works for the Portlandia Art Department, which recently won its second Emmy Award for Outstanding Production Design. Falanga has worked on the show for the past four seasons and currently serves as the Art Department Coordinator. Peter is also one of the coordinators of BCCTV, an artist-run video production collective based out of Bud Clark Commons and PNCA. BCCTV holds weekly workshops that are free and open to anyone who has or is currently experiencing homelessness and that focus on a participatory approach to film and video art. "It’s exciting that I get to take part in a local arts collective, work on a comedy television show, and be able to maintain my academic research,” Peter said. Read more here!
Haute Garbage Podcast recently interviewed Rotties, a hardcore-punk band including two PNCA alumna: Heather McLaughlin '05 and Ellis Burnheart '08 (As an extra bonus, alumnus Jason Traeger '07 was interviewed on the Aug 11th issue of the podcast!) Listen here!
PNCA alumna and staff member Dawn Nielson '14 was interviewed on KATU about her new body of work, currently on view at the Legacy Emmanuel Cancer Center. The new encaustic works, entitled Perspective: One Woman's Relationship with her Imperfect Self, explore the ways in which breast cancer survivors heal through art.
We love stories of alumni helping alumni, so this one caught our eye: Alumnus Jean Pierre Veillet '97 and his firm Siteworks design build has hired alumna Emilie Skytta MFA '14. JP wrote us to say, "Emilie's new role with Siteworks will require creative visual communication skills as well as critical thinking, problem solving and strategy. She was well trained with PNCA in the MFA in Collaborative Design program."
Jean Pierre Veillet '97 is in the news for other reasons as well: he was recently interviewed by the Portland Business Journal on the value of creativity and culture to Portland's continued growth - especially if we want to grow sustainable and reponsibly. Read the whole article here.
Over the past year, Argyle Winery in Dundee, OR collaborated with three PNCA students to develop a new series of wine labels for its 2013 Vintage Brut. The three students, Christin Engleberth '19, Lindsey Walker '17, and Subin Yang '17 each created an artwork based on ideas gleaned during a field trip to Argyle’s winemaking facility and vineyards. All three of the student-designed Argyle Wine labels made it on to the Forbes “Coolest Wine Labels of Fall 2016” list. Read more about the project and the collaboration in Oregon Wine Press!
