Exquisite Gorge I
Photographer and writer Friderike Heuer covered the first incarnation of Exquisite Gorge, the 2019 collaborative art project organized by the Maryhill Museum of Art. Artists working with communities in sections of a 220-mile stretch of the Columbia River between its confluences with the Willamette and Snake rivers created 6×4-foot woodcuts depicting life and the environment in their section of the river system. It all culminated with a grand event on the museum grounds pressing a 66-foot-long print with a steamroller.
