ultra Q: Stuart Horodner

Visual arts curator, Stuart Horodner, (PICA, PNCA, ACA, Affair!) is the first subject of the ultra Q in which we ask Portland’s movers and makers a number of pressing questions

Though Stuart Horodner—PICA’s last visual arts curator and PNCA lecturer—has moved to Atlanta as Director of the Atlanta College of Art Gallery, he’s still making things happen in Portland as director of the second annual Affair @ the Jupiter Hotel, an art fair featuring the creme of local galleries as well as galleries and special projects from beyond PDX, all installed for a weekend into the rooms and court of the Jupiter Hotel.
