First Friday Picks April 2007 
Ted Apel's Potential Difference (detail) At New American Art Union, curator TJ Norris offers invisible.other a subtle group show about subtleties that will probably be squished somewhat at the official opening tonight. Most of the work has a controlled whiteness or transparency about it that requires a calm quiet environment. Tighter and more curatorially controlled than most recent group shows in Portland city limits, it showcases the idea of liminality more than the various participants who are: Ted Apel, Daniel Barron, Richard Chartier (2002 Whitney Biennial), (PORT's own) Melia Donovan, Leif Elggren, Ty Ennis, Thomas Koner, Michael Paulus, Susan Robb, Steve Roden, Abi Spring and my favorite in this show, Laura Vandenburgh. Her work takes on a lot more intimacy without frames. Opening reception • 7-10pm • April 6-29 4 New American Art Union • 922 SE Ankeny Street • Tel.503.231.8294  Naomi Nowak's Bower Pretty in Ink: featuring new work by Meg Hunt, Miniature Mouse and Naomi Nowak... it looks pretty and errrr kitschy (but in a well executed, maximum effect way). Opening Reception • 6-9pm • April 6-29 Grass Hut • 811 East Burnside • 503.445.9924 Posted by Jeff Jahn on April 06, 2007 at 9:26 | Comments (0) Comments Post a comment Thanks for signing in, .
