Hello Helen Reed

As part of Anna Gray and Ryan Wilson Paulsen’s exhibition The Classroom at PDX Contemporary Art (925 NW Flanders), Helen Reed gives a short talk called Regifting Economies, Saturday at 11 AM.

Helen Reed is an artist based in Portland, Oregon. Over the past 5 years Helen’s art practice has involved working with specific invested communities. During this time she has landed the first senior citizen on the moon, contacted Marshall McLuhan by Ouija Board, and coordinated a lesbian-separatist rave in the farmlands of Ontario. Her most recent project is Twin Twin Peaks, a 3rd Season of Twin Peaks, written and acted by the show’s fans. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally at The Kitchen in New York City, Power Plant Contemporary Art in Toronto, The Portland Art Museum, The Seattle Art Museum and La Centrale in Montreal. Helen Reed holds a BFA from the Emily Carr Institute in Vancouver, BC and an MFA in Art and Social Practice from Portland State University.
