PORTLANDIA
A Series of Prints From the Field
Reception: First Thursday, October 6th, 6-8pm
Exhibition Dates: October 6 - 30

During the month of October, the work of Gallery 114 member F.X. Rosica will be featured in an exhibition entitled Portlandia: A Series of Prints from the Field, composed of black and white, and colored prints from sketches conducted in situ using the region’s public transportation system.

Rosica explains: "Fieldwork is a general descriptive term that is mainly used in the natural and social sciences to mean work done or firsthand observations made in the field, as opposed to that done or observed in a controlled environment. The bus, streetcar and MAX trains provide me with an ideal “hide” – a cover to conduct my unobstructed field studies of traveling primates. This hide, typically from the back of the moving vehicle, allows me an unobstructed view into the lives and habits of Portlanders."
