On Thursday, February 17 at 7:00 PM, renowned artist Carolee Schneemann will give a perfomative lecture at Portland Community College’s Sylvania Performing Arts Center, 12000 SW 49th Avenue, Portland, Oregon.

In Mysteries of the Iconographies, Schneemann will travel backward and forward in time through her five decades of artmaking to explore some of the themes and imagery that have informed her explorations of sensuality, the cultural mind-body divide and personal freedom in works as varied as film and video, drawing, painting, performance and photography.

Carolee Schneemann is a multidisciplinary artist. Her video, film, painting, photography, performance art and installation works have been shown at such institutions as the Los Angeles County Museum of Contemporary Art, at New York’s New Museum of Contemporary Art, Museum of Modern Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art; the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid; the Moderna Museet, Stockholm; and the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris. “Precarious,” Schneemann’s multichannel video installation was presented at the Tate Liverpool “Abandon Normal Devices” festival in September 2009. In 2010, the Dorsky Museum at SUNY New Paltz presented a major retrospective encompassing the full range of Schneemann’s visual work. A catalogue, Carolee Schneemann: Within and Beyond the Premises accompanied the exhibition.

Suggestions of a Life Being Lived at SF Camerawork

Suggestions of a Life Being Lived is a bold presentation of contemporary work that looks at queerness as a set of political alliances and possibilities. The exhibition features 16 artists working in photography, film, video, activism and education, and was organized for SF Camerawork by guest curators Danny Orendorff and Adrienne Skye Roberts. Untethered to institutions of sexual or gender normativity and in pursuit of greater freedoms, the work in this exhibition represents queer activism, intentional and imagined communities, self-determinism, and DIY alternative world-making.


Featuring work by: Steven Miller, Tara Mateik, Killer Banshee, Gay Shame, Kirstyn Russell, Jeannie Simms, Lenn Keller, Mercury Vapor Studios, Chris Vargas, Greg Youmans, Jason Fritz Michael, Aay Preson-Myint, Allyson Mitchell, Eric Stanley, Torsten Zenas Burns, and Darrin Martin.

I spent a couple of years deployed overseas with the US Army, and spent my free time with my camera. If you are interested in checking out some of the pictures I've taken, I'm happy to share them. They can be found on my Flickr page.
