AMOA

Saw an amazing show at the Austin Museum of Art while visiting my sister-not-in-law. MODERN ART. MODERN LIVES. THEN + NOW: A two-part exhibition organized by the Austin Museum of Art from AMOA’s permanent collection and local collections that explores how modern and contemporary artists merge art and life.

Was moved especially KCHO's VCEI Bate 2000 (conté crayon on paper) (large-scale drawing, left) and the work of Michael Ray Charles.

Photographer Aaron Johanson took an updated context shot of commission portland landscape c-5 (2006) installed on its new bright blue wall at The Daily Journal of Commerce in downtown Portland. At the time of the commission, wall was a tan/beige sort of shade (like the carpet) and while it worked for the concept as orginally conceived, the blue bring a whole new wonder to the piece.
