His self-motivation and work ethic as an artist are truly admirable. I extend another thanks to the cohort and friends for many laughs, debates, and feedback in all areas. This program brought me to the best group of friends I have ever had; I admire all of you for your commitment, drive, and endless energy for the arts, even if you can’t prove it with your pocketbooks yet! I have a special thanks to my husband, Nathan, for supporting me throughout and putting up with being an AAD wife. Finally, I would like to thank my research advisor, Dr. Gaylene Carpenter, for her invaluable support and guidance through this process.

  • Carl Hall Gallery
    COLLECTION GUIDE Carl Hall Gallery Hallie Ford Museum ofArt1 On the Edge PACIFIC NORTHWEST ART FROM THE PERMANENT COLLECTION THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST COLLECTION at the Hallie Ford Museum of Art includes paintings, sculptures, and works on paper created by Oregon artists as well as modern and contemporary works from Washington, Idaho, and Montana. Northwest art has been central to the mission of the Hallie Ford Museum of Art since it was first envisioned in the early 1990s. A long tradition of art instruction at Willamette, beginning in the 1850s and continuing with today’s strong departments of art and art history, provides the context for making regional art one of the primary emphases of this university-linked museum. Selections from the Pacific Northwest collection are exhibited in the Carl Hall Gallery, named for the painter who came to Oregon for basic training during World War II and, following his service in the Pacific, returned to the state he referred to as “Eden again.” He taught painting, drawing, and printmaking at Willamette University for thirty-eight years, retiring in 1986. Although the permanent collection contains some nineteenth-century Oregon art, the Carl Hall Gallery presents Northwest art from the 1930s to the twenty-first century. The title of the installation, On the Edge: Pacific Northwest Art from the Permanent Collection, recognizes the edgy, avant-garde nature of these works within their respective periods—as well as the region’s location on the edge of the continent.
