The Mercury's Do This, Do That: Your Top Events for October 20-26
"Comprised of a multi-channel sound installation, a sundial, and "code-drawn radiating spheres," multimedia artist Shana Palmer's solo exhibition has turned Portland Community College Sylvania's North View Gallery into a cabinet of curiosities. The show's title is deferent to women artists who have used "voids or tunnels as sculptural language"-think Nancy Holt's Sun Tunnels and Barbara Hepworth's perforated sculptures-but Palmer invents a singular visual language. Look for the "touch-capacitive bronze sculptures...[which] activate an evolving sonic drone and audio-reactive visuals.""
"But the air is still crisp, the frogs are still inflatable, and this week's events reflect the city's devotion to celebrating fall, despite [ gestures wildly]. For one thing, you can cop fresh cider and scare yourself at a drive-in theater this week. Also, Milwaukie's Good Measure serves a cinnamon roll latte, Third Angle New Music fills the World Forestry Center with tunes for tree-lovers, and Via Mardot's chilly theremin is season-appropriate."
More than halfway through October, Portland continues seasonal celebrations with crisp air, inflatable frogs, and numerous fall-focused activities. Attendees can enjoy fresh cider at drive-in theaters, specialty drinks like a cinnamon roll latte at Milwaukie's Good Measure, and performances by Third Angle New Music at the World Forestry Center. Via Mardot performs a chilly theremin suited to the season. Portland Community College Sylvania's North View Gallery hosts Shana Palmer's multimedia exhibition Full Circle featuring multi-channel sound, a sundial, code-drawn radiating spheres, and touch-capacitive bronze sculptures that activate evolving sonic drones and audio-reactive visuals. A screening of Blood for Dracula plays at the Hollywood Theatre.
