Opening today (14 OCTOBER - 28 NOVEMBER 2020) at Froelick Gallery is "Crow's Instructions" featuring a range of works from the breadth of Rick Bartow's (Wiyot, 1946-2016) career, examining his revered use of bird imagery, which he executed in pastel drawings, paintings, wood sculptures and prints. Including refined line etchings of gold-crowned sparrows to transformational hawk/human figures to kestrels in layered color-field monotypes to eyes and a beak that emerge from a carved wooden foot, to the bold, declarative late in life series G.C. (Great Crow), this exhibition is a celebration of the artist's fascination with birds and his ability to transmit the panoply of human experience through them.

We will be examining the relationships between black and Native cultural identities, notions of community recognition, artistic practice and activism. Audiences will have the opportunity to explore the work of four artists, culture bearers and activists who, through their practices, act as catalyzing agents in our communities and challenge legacies of colonial disempowerment. The artists will reflect upon their roles as leaders in an era of the Black Lives Matter movement in an era of great social and political turmoil.

NACF Board Chair, Joy Harjo speaks to Douglas Derrick of the More Devotedly podcast about the transfer of ownership of the Yale Union Building to NACF in #Portland, #Oregon.
"At the heart of this transfer is the idea of repatriation, a reversal of the land theft that Indigenous Americans were systematically victimized by from first contact with European colonizers all the way to the present. Recognition of those transgressions is important, but the transfer shows that there are meaningful ways to heal some of those wounds that go beyond words. This land transfer will be an incredible investment in indigenous artists for years to come, and that will benefit all Portlanders."
