Portland Art Museum

2016-2017

APEX: Arvie Smith

Jul 30, 2016 – Mar 12, 2017

“Smith’s paintings mine a lifetime of change to debunk negative stereotypes. The paintings are brilliantly tough, ironically sexy, and illustrate shocking depictions of lynching and Ku Klux Klan persecution—all with a brilliantly sensuous, masterful touch.” Bonnie Laing Malcolmson, The Arlene and Harold Schnitzer Curator of Northwest Art
