DoubleThink
Jud Turner, Eugene’s most prominent
found-art sculptor, will have his new work on
display at The Wave Gallery. The showing,
entitled “DoubleThink“ will run from March 30
through April 21. The opening reception will be
6 pm Friday, March 30.
“DoubleThink“ is Turner’s ode to the
Orwellian concept of knowing but not knowing,
made popular by the novel 1984. Turner will
extrapolate on his process and this theme in his
artist discussion 7 pm Wednesday, April 11, also
at The Wave Gallery. — Dante Zuñiga-West

Bigger Picture
The colorful vibrancy of the Whiteaker with its pastel houses
and the fecund dishevel of its front-yard gardens can be credited
to bohemian culture. However, to overlook Kari Johnson’s
contributions to that neighborhood would be equivalent to failing an
acid test or choking through a bong rip — just fl at out un-Eugenean.
Johnson, a resident and artist of the Whiteaker for more than twenty
years, has brush-stroked and stippled her way into the position of
neighborhood muralist. Her work is as outspoken as it is tasteful. She
draws on naturalistic themes and, in some cases, unabashedly calls
out the powers that be.
“The way I learned to paint is that I went out and I painted what
I saw in nature,” Johnson says. “That’s how I learned about shadow
and light and color.”
Humanity’s dominion over nature plays a crucial role in her
fi rst Whiteaker mural on the side of the Jawbreaker Gallery at the
intersection of 4th and Monroe. Beginning in ‘91 and after several
revisions, the piece has developed into an idea of optimism in a
post-collapse world through a patently feminist lens. Ideas like male
childrearing, the sanctity of elders, tribal living and cancer survival
all work their ways in.
Murals tend to ride a fi ne line between high art and street art, but
they are indisputably public works of art, art for the people — and
Johnson has made them a good portion of her life’s work.
“It’s sort of in defi ance of galleries,” says Johnson. “We
(muralists) break the art out. We take it out of the frame, out of
the building, out of the mediated commercial aspect of the gallery
relationship. And I feel like I can give to the people, just like people
give to me. I feel like I can contribute; it’s just real satisfying.”
Kari Johnson’s murals can be seen along this week’s Last Friday
ArtWalk and all throughout the Whiteaker. As always, the Last Friday
ArtWalk is free. For more information visit http://lastfridayartwalk.
