In 2005, Nathan McKee launched collaborative magazine project, Fake Your Own Death, initially to introduce his artist friends to one another. The second issue is finished and now you can meet McKee friends, too, including Jessie Rose Vala, Rita Badalamenti, Josh Sachs, Liz Harris, NRob Doran, Tim Root, Tamar Monhait, and Fremont Slim. Their work is up at Stumptown downtown throughout the month of July, and you can get the mag at the opening reception and magazine release party First Thursday from 6-8 PM at Stumptown Coffee Roasters (128 SW 3rd).
Two of three. Here are Katie Arents and Kathleen Keogh of Portland-based dance group, Woolly Mammoth Comes to Dinner. They did “We Are Cats” at the recent opening of Rikki Rothenberg’s exhibition at Nationale (2730 E Burnside). Rothenberg is the third member of Woolly.
The photos, above, are from my new favorite photo blog à la claire fontaine by culture maven/curator/shop owner, May Juliette Barruel, who owns Nationale and curates the Stumptown walls as well.
Perhaps you would like to see Control of the Dreaming Mind, a performance by Oregon Painting Society from their recent exhibition at Fontanelle Gallery (205 SW Pine).
