Hometown Boy!
Storm Tharp Will Lecture About His Work!
The Public Is Invited (it's free, tell your friends)
Monday April 7th, 7:30pm Sharp!
PSU 5th Avenue Cinema
510 SW Hall St. at SW 5th Ave
Storm Tharp was raised in the rural town of Ontario, Oregon where his creative life began in calligraphy and ceramics. He attended Cornell University in 1988 and received a BFA from the College of Architecture, Art and Urban Planning. He moved to Portland, Oregon in 1992.
His work is categorically interdisciplinary - although recently, his output has been primarily large-scale works on paper. These works, which are mainly figurative, encompass many narrative and historical references - balancing the sublime and desperate postures of human theatrics. Upcoming solo exhibits are scheduled for Galerie Bertand et Gruner in Geneva, Switzerland in September and PDX Contemporary Art in Portland, Oregon, - November 2008. www.pica.org
