Art & Culture

Corvallis, Oregon artist Claudia Cave (American, born 1951) grew up in Salem and earned art degrees at Western Oregon University and the University of Idaho. Her drawings and paintings range widely in subject matter, from spiky female figures to zooming canines and occasional cats to smoothly excavated landscape forms. Organized by guest curator Roger Hull, the exhibition emphasizes Cave’s penchant for interiors and isolated rooms alive with compulsively rendered detail and fantasy, or cross-sections of entire houses, their spaces (and inhabitants) opened up for all to see.

With COVID-19 and restrictions on travel and socialization, people have been spending more time closer to home, exploring and re-discovering the Northwest. With this exhibition, Jonathan Bucci, the HFMA Curator of Collections and Exhibitions, turns the museum’s programing eye closer to home as well. Drawn entirely from the museum’s permanent collection, “Time in Place” explores the concept of place in the Northwest through the lens of time. Visitors are asked to consider a number of questions. How does a place change over time? How do artists’ responses to a specific place change? How do personal experiences affect one’s relationship to a region or place? How does knowledge of history impact depictions of place? How has the idea of place changed in an increasingly interconnected world?

Since opening in 1998, the museum’s permanent collection has been built around a primary vision of regional art. The collection encompasses both historic and contemporary fine art – objects such as paintings, sculptures, and prints – as well as historic and contemporary artworks made in customary or traditional ways, often in the forms of baskets and regalia, by artists indigenous to this area.

The artworks included in this exhibition were selected not simply because they depict a Northwest location, but because they convey a specific sense of time or connect to a period of time unique to our region. Organized both thematically and geographically, the exhibition looks at the legacy of conquest and native resilience as well as the human impact on the land. It also explores broad regions of our area defined more by geological, ecological, and cultural connections than by state boundaries. These regions include the Columbia River Gorge, the Willamette Valley, the High Desert, and the Pacific Coast.

Many artworks included in “Time and Place” have never been exhibited before at the museum, and range from major works by well-known artists to hidden gems, which are plentiful in the museum’s collection of over 10,000 objects. The largest painting ever created by the renowned Willamette Valley artist Carl Hall, and a remnant from a Fort Rock sandal over 9,000 years old are just two examples of the remarkable pieces on view.

Bucci says, “Historically, the artists of the Northwest have had a strong connection to place in their work, drawing inspiration from it, and interpreting it freely. Their individual expressions help us better understand our shared past, who we are today, and what connects all within the Northwest.”

Project Chamber Music: Willamette Valley makes a triumphant return to the Elsinore Theatre, celebrating five years of world-class chamber music in Salem, and steadfast support for the Salem-Keizer Public School orchestra programs.

Audience favorite, the Aeolus Quartet will return to the stage, alongside Co-Artistic Directors of Chamber Music Northwest and international sensations Soovin Kim, violin and Gloria Chien, piano.

Of the upcoming concert, Project Chamber Music Artistic Director and Salem native Caitlin Lynch shares “When I was little, Chamber Music Northwest presented in Salem the very first professional string quartet concert I ever heard. I was forever changed after that concert – unbelievably inspired by this deeply magical, intimate form of expression that would eventually become not only my profession, but my passion. To have the opportunity, years later, to welcome the Co-Artistic Directors of this storied organization to Salem, to share the stage with them in all their remarkable artistry, and to expose Salem’s next generation of classical musicians to their music-making is an extraordinary honor.”

To date, $16,000 in Project Chamber Music ticket sale proceeds have provided private instrumental lessons for local students for whom the cost would be otherwise prohibitive. As is tradition, 100% of ticket sale proceeds from this concert will be donated for this purpose.

It also explores broad regions of our area defined more by geological, ecological, and cultural connections than by state boundaries. These regions include the Columbia River Gorge, the Willamette Valley, the High Desert, and the Pacific Coast.

Many artworks included in “Time and Place” have never been exhibited before at the museum, and range from major works by well-known artists to hidden gems, which are plentiful in the museum’s collection of over 10,000 objects. The largest painting ever created by the renowned Willamette Valley artist Carl Hall, and a remnant from a Fort Rock sandal over 9,000 years old are just two examples of the remarkable pieces on view.

Bucci says, “Historically, the artists of the Northwest have had a strong connection to place in their work, drawing inspiration from it, and interpreting it freely. Their individual expressions help us better understand our shared past, who we are today, and what connects all within the Northwest.”

Corvallis, Oregon artist Claudia Cave (American, born 1951) grew up in Salem and earned art degrees at Western Oregon University and the University of Idaho. Her drawings and paintings range widely in subject matter, from spiky female figures to zooming canines and occasional cats to smoothly excavated landscape forms. Organized by guest curator Roger Hull, the exhibition emphasizes Cave’s penchant for interiors and isolated rooms alive with compulsively rendered detail and fantasy, or cross-sections of entire houses, their spaces (and inhabitants) opened up for all to see.

With COVID-19 and restrictions on travel and socialization, people have been spending more time closer to home, exploring and re-discovering the Northwest. With this exhibition, Jonathan Bucci, the HFMA Curator of Collections and Exhibitions, turns the museum’s programing eye closer to home as well. Drawn entirely from the museum’s permanent collection, “Time in Place” explores the concept of place in the Northwest through the lens of time. Visitors are asked to consider a number of questions. How does a place change over time? How do artists’ responses to a specific place change? How do personal experiences affect one’s relationship to a region or place? How does knowledge of history impact depictions of place? How has the idea of place changed in an increasingly interconnected world?

Since opening in 1998, the museum’s permanent collection has been built around a primary vision of regional art. The collection encompasses both historic and contemporary fine art – objects such as paintings, sculptures, and prints – as well as historic and contemporary artworks made in customary or traditional ways, often in the forms of baskets and regalia, by artists indigenous to this area.

The artworks included in this exhibition were selected not simply because they depict a Northwest location, but because they convey a specific sense of time or connect to a period of time unique to our region. Organized both thematically and geographically, the exhibition looks at the legacy of conquest and native resilience as well as the human impact on the land. It also explores broad regions of our area defined more by geological, ecological, and cultural connections than by state boundaries. These regions include the Columbia River Gorge, the Willamette Valley, the High Desert, and the Pacific Coast.
