1. Wounded Crow
Wounded Crow
Description
This print depicts a red-breasted crow adorned with linear accents. A swatch of light blue near the crow's head creates visual interest and directs the viewer's attention to a mirror-image of the word "crow" near the top of the image., Rick Bartow; wounded crow; monoprint with mixed media; 44.25x30 inches; 1991; BARR91 (inv. 1029), The frailty of life on this planet and the need to recognize the interconnectedness of all species are common threads that weave through Bartow's work. His Yurok Indian heritage and his experiences in Vietnam are the source of these feelings and nurture his imagery. Crow/raven and a pantheon of other animals, including man, figure prominently in his work. He reanimates the ancient myths of Northwest peoples into his visual language. Once the symbol of rebirth and the spirit of all life, crow is a ghost-like figure in this monotype who knows "he" is no longer central to our lives. (OAC documentation, 1990). A Vietnam veteran and a Yurok tribal member, he addresses grief and fear in his work as means to dismantling them. His work is represented by Froelick Gallery and Stonington Gallery.

Clouds, Alvord Desert
Description
A handcolored, black-and-white landscape photograph that depicts a rocky plain in front of a mountain range underneath a clouded sky., Hand Colored Silverprint; , Terri Warpinski has been a professor of art at the University of Oregon since 1984, where she also served in administrative positions such as Vice Provost of Academic Affairs and Community Engagement. Warpinski's images reflect her reverence for the Western Landscape and her interest in the traces of human connection with this landscape. Warpinski invests her images with a strong belief in the environmental movement: "Art, literature and Theater can gather people around an issue in an uplifting way. It's not being irresponsible or ignoring the seriousness of things. Neither is it preaching to the converted. In my experience art can reach the spirit of people in a deeper way than a purely analytical approach..." Warpinski's projects include a series on aboriginal rock art in Australia, works inspired by her field notebooks, hand-colored black and white photographs, and large-format collages which include the Fragments series images that are now a part of this collection., tlw@ uoregon.edu, http://www.terriwarpinski.com, The Oregon Arts Commission has ten Regional Arts Councils that provide delivery of art services and information.
