Works Gallery, San Jose and Disjecta Gallery, Portland

Please visit our new website at www.pacrimsculptors.org.

Works Gallery, San Jose and Disjecta Gallery, Portland: Ama Torrance, Peter Hiers, and Pam Dernham are going to submit proposals for Pac Rim to have exhibits at Works/San Jose Gallery and at Disjecta Gallery in Portland. Works Gallery has a great space and would give our group more exposure in the South Bay. Disjecta is a contemporary arts organization in Portland that provides studios, resources, and exhibition space for all disciplines of the arts community. It is one of the organizations that started Portland's Modern Zoo, which is a huge summertime festival that draws in galleries, open studios, performance events, everything. Taking our work to new places is great for us as artists and is not a bad resume thing, either. If you would like to be part of the discussion for these exhibits, please contact Ama ( amadavid @ comcast . net), Peter (peterhiers @ att . net), or Pam (Pdernham @ pac bell .net).

Website in Honor and Memory of Richard Knight

There is a website in honor and memory of PacRim friend and colleague Richard Knight, who passed away over a year ago: Mikeandphilonthehill.blogspot.com. Mike and Phil were special friends for many years and when you go there you get directed to a site devoted to Richard. It has images of many of his pieces, some of which were displayed in PacRim shows. It also mentions his book, Saarinen's Quest, and has information about how people can order one or go to local libraries to see a copy.
