Tom Prochaska: Music for Ghosts
June 6 – August 26, 2023
Melvin Henderson-Rubio Gallery
This retrospective exhibition explores the career of longtime Portland artist Tom Prochaska. Well known for his open ended narrative works, Prochaska has developed a body of work that often merges dreamlike memories with a dark sense of humor. Figures in desolate landscapes, sitting in cafes, or playing instruments populate his paintings and prints, and take form in his paper mâché sculptures. Prochaska has lived and worked in Portland since 1978. He taught at the Pacific Northwest College of Art from 1988 until his retirement in 2012.
