Past Exhibits


The Art of Aging
May 4 - September 3, 2006

The Art of Aging, organized by the HUC - Jewish Institute of Religion Museum, offered viewers an opportunity to see how artists interpret their own anxieties and joys about the aging process. Through painting, sculpture, photography, installation, fiber, mixed media, and video, contemporary artists explored diverse aspects of aging, including creativity and vitality, memory, anxiety, wisdom, physical change, loss, inter-generational interaction, responsibility, and optimism.

The exhibit, curated in New York originally, was expanded to feature work by four Portland artists, and a portion of the exhibit was on view for residents and guests at the Rose Schnitzer Manor and Robison Home in Portland, Oregon.
