2. Auditorium Glass Areas
Auditorium Glass Areas
Description
Working closely with John Rogers and the architect was Portland glass artist Howard Meehan who is the corporate design manager for Tektronix. The two 10 foot by 15 foot glass areas in the auditorium reference Rogers' wall relief and reflect the artist's interest in aerial views of the earth. As a Vietnam Veteran, Meehan felt strongly about the new building. His imagery echoes the topography of the Asian European theaters, and the translucent sandblasted areas also make the movement of the traffic on Summer Street. Color was introduced by glass rods fused to the inside of each of the interior panels before they were sealed for thermal insulation. Meehan was assisted in this work by glass fabricator Tim O'Neil.

Orbscape
Description
An amorphous glass sculpture decorated with bands of blue, green, pink, orange, and yellow. The piece is mounted on a metal armature., Orbscape; Laminated glass; 1981; 32 x 19 x 3; Frederick Heidel; OIT Library, Former chairman of the art & architecture department and professor of art at Portland State University for over 25 years, Frederick Heidel is well known and respected for his work in glass and acrylic paintings. Throughout his career, Heidel has exhibited widely including major shows at the San Francisco Museum of Art, Portland Art Museum, University of Oregon Art Museum, Smith/Anderson Gallery, Palo Alto, CA and Glasgalene Kuhler, Amsterdam, Holland. The artist has also been awarded numerous commissions and is included in many public and private collections. A painter, Heidel began working in glass in 1967 after receiving a Chapelbrook Foundation Grant to work in the glass factories in Holland. Since that time, the artist has traveled to the studios of Glassobjekte Van Tetterode to execute glass sculpture from drawings he has prepared in his Portland studio. The exploration of this medium has lead Heidel to create sculpture of painted light and the nuances of the colorful laminated glass harkens to the painterly and fluid surfaces of his paintings. Heidel's works on paper reflect the translucent quality of his glass sculpture.
