Photos and story by James Hill
SYLVANIA CAMPUS The Northview Gallery at Portland Community College will showcase the work of artist Kate Bronwyn.
Bronwyn’s exhibit, "In Her Images,"will be on display from Jan. 5 to Feb. 5 and feature her work as an artist and model in sculpture, drawings, and paintings by Bronwyn, local artists, and art students. There will be a reception from 4 to 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 28 in the gallery, located in Room 214 of the CT Building at 12000 S.W. 49th Ave.After moving from Wisconsin, Bronwyn has worked with artists in the Portland art community for 21 years. She began modeling for local art programs and artists and within a few months she participated in the "Draw Yourself Out"program with E. Ann Hinds, a process which uses the creation of art to gain further understanding of one’s experiences; particularly experiences that are traumatic or difficult to overcome. Bronwyn has also been a prolific artist ever since showing her work in local galleries and art cafes including the Rock Creek Art Gallery at PCC, Blackfish Gallery and Boxcar Bertha’s in Portland. Contributors to her exhibit include local artists Barry Pelzner, Rick True, George Johanson, Bob Hanson and Paul Missal as well as PCC artists Robert Dozono (retired PCC art instructor), Mark R. Smith (visual arts instructor), Bill Garnett (part-time art instructor), Mark Andres (art and painting instructor), Linda Berkley (art instructor), and Dick Helzer (visual arts instructor). Also, there will be contributions from PCC, Pacific Northwest College of Art, Oregon College of Art and Craft, Reed College, and Hipbone Studio students.The Northview Gallery is open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
