One Hundred More Fires (2023/2023) by Tavares StrachanOregon Contemporary
We believe artists provide unique, forward-thinking ways of connecting people to the nuanced issues that define modern life.

What do we do?
We regularly promote voices and points of view—regional to international—that have been historically underrepresented in the arts, and engage these populations to impact and intervene in the contemporary arts dialogue.
