Portland Renaissance
There was a time in Portland, Oregon, long before safe bike lanes and inviting coffee shops, that the city featured an outdated downtown, a lagging economy, and not much hope for the future. Then the 1980s and '90s came and a new Portland was making its presence felt, a Portland steeped in creativity and bold initiative. Eventually, Portland would gain national attention in areas such as urban living, advertising, athletic wear, dining, and craft brewing. That can be hard to remember in the aftermath of Covid, rising crime, and tent cities, but beneath the graffiti, Portland remains a vibrant, livable city with much to celebrate. Portland Renaissance reminds readers of what shaped Portland into a great city and how so much of it began in the last two decades of the 20th century.

George Johanson
George Johanson - painter, printmaker, and teacher - was born in Seattle, studied art in Portland, Oregon, and lived in New York in the early 1950s before returning to Portland. Whether in New York jazz clubs and slaughterhouses, in Mexican villages, at the Rose Festival held each year in Portland, at rehearsals of the Oregon Symphony, or in life drawing sessions with artist friends, making images on paper has been a basic element for Johanson throughout his life. The haunting power of Johanson's art originates, almost always, in drawing. Johanson's art is concerned with memory and recollection, dream and fantasy, biography and autobiography, physical and imaginative detachment yet sensual engagement. He is also the painter of fires that break out in city buildings or spew from volcanoes, and he often sets fire's rampage alongside human lassitude and seeming indifference.
