Portraits & Ikebana

Opening this weekend at PAM: More Than a Pretty Face: 150 Years of the Portrait Print. "Featuring some 70 works by artists ranging from James McNeill Whistler to Chuck Close, this exhibition focuses on the portrait print from the late 19th to the early 21st century. Themes include the relationship among artist, sitter, and viewer; issues of identity, including age, gender, sexuality, and ethnicity; and ways in which social status, roles, and class are conveyed by pose, gesture, attire, and setting."

Exhibition • March 20 - May 30, 2010
Portland Art Museum • 1219 SW Park • 503.226.2811

The Portland Japanese Garden presents an Ohara ikebana exhibition. "Led by Master Teacher Kitty Akre, the members of the Portland Chapter of the Ohara School set the tone for early spring with an array of exquisite designs." This is one of several ikebana exhibitions, led by different schools, that occur throughout the year at the garden.
