Cruisin’ Around Washington
Through October 31 |听
This bite-sized exhibit takes you on a tour around Washington state as fossils come to life through the art of scientific surrealist Ray Troll. Peculiar-looking fish, gigantic fearsome salmon, and one very unlucky rhino all make an appearance. Utilizing brand new art, as well as old favorites, we are thrilled to be able to offer this compact extension of Troll’s work complete with specimens from Burke collections.

Queer Imagination
Through听July 8 |听
The Jacob Lawrence Gallery proudly presents听Queer Imagination, a group exhibition curated by Brittney Frantece, recipient of the gallery鈥檚 2021 Curatorial Fellowship for BIPOC Graduate Students.听Queer Imagination听asks, how can creative works distort material realities and build a world that explores new ways of being, thinking, and knowing?
The exhibition features works by Portland-based set designer August Oaks and four 天美影视传媒 artists and scholars: writer and English graduate student听Rasheena Fountain, poet Nanya Jhingran, who graduated in 2019 with an MA in English, photographer Berette S Macaulay, and illustrator and painter Meshell Sturgis. Together they offer insights into a world governed by violent logic and contemplate ways to radically warp, shift, redesign, or altogether burn that world to the ground.
