Laurie Danial at Froelick Gallery

The exhibition “Before my Very Eyes” features both large- and small-scale abstract compositions. Danial’s deft handling of paint highlights her commitment to form and an artistic process that unfolds at its own speed.

Jordan Clark’s Portland is bright

The abstract paintings hum with an energy entirely befitting for their caffeine-centered display location – Stumptown Coffee Roasters.

Joe Feddersen’s ‘Extended Family’

The artist’s glass installation and collages on view at Adams and Ollman explore the ties that bind, both humans to one another and to the environment. Feddersen’s heightened visibility in the art world fits with a larger trend of renaissance for Indigenous art.

Producing the future at Parallax Art Center

The collaboratively curated group exhibition “Notes for Tomorrow” tackles complex issues and presents a “network of overlapping solutions.” The art, as well as its curatorial framing, is dense but ultimately rewarding.

Shannon M. Lieberman reviews a pair of shows at Nucleus Portland. One features intimate portraits and the other works in miniature.

The retrospective at the Hallie Ford Museum of Art doesn’t broadcast political intent but the implications of the artists prints are anything but subtle.
