Mike Rathbun

For those of you looking for something to do, The Art Gym opens their 25th season with two great installations, Mike Rathbun with N45º23.871’ W122º38.864’ and Diane Jacobs with Cross Hairs. Rathbun's installation consists of three interrelated structures: a wave floor, a suspended 20-foot boat, and ceiling-high matrix of 2,800 linear feet of two-by-twos that the artist hand-cut and split from logs(!). Jacobs presents a collection of sculptures made from human hair, which she incorporates with cultural linguistics for an innovative and heady (get it?) body of work. Both Rathbun and Jacobs developed and executed their projects for approximately two years with funding from Artist Project Grants from RACC.
