From MAMIE & SALLY, featuring the work of Mamie Deschillie and Sally M Mulda at the Portland Museum of Modern Art where we met with Libby Werbel and talked about curation as art practice.

This week in Evidence of Engagement we looked at artist run spaces as a form of institutional critique. We also visited and talked with curator Kristan Kennedy at PICA, Felisha Ledesma  & Alex Ian Smith at S1 and Hannah Piper Burns & Tabitha Nikolai at Compliance Division .

We’ve been thinking about Howard Finster. How he used to say “I never met a person I did not love” and how that love materialized into a body of work so large and nearly mythic that it touched angels and prehistory at the same time. Howard Finster was possessed, by love or demons, or both, or maybe they’re the same thing. 

If you’re in Portland this weekend, you can still see Howard Finster’s work at Portland Museum of Modern Art, in the basement of Mississippi Records.
