CONTENT


Portland Paper City is an installation collaborative showcasing abstract, figurative, and architectural representations of the City of Portland through the art of papercraft and paper sculpture.
Spearheaded by designers, Marisa Green, Jessie Bazata, Sean Garrison, and Rory Phillips, Portland Paper City has united the community, as well as emerging and established artists in the
Portland area, by inviting them to contribute work that represents their love of Portland.
Original papercraft templates including people, vehicles, and animals have been provided for the public to download, craft and submit to the installation at www.portlandpapercity.com. Area artists are also invited to contribute unique paper works that are inspired by Portland.


This exhibition was made possible by Art Spark, a creative networking event put on by the Regional Arts and Culture Council. In March of 2010 Portland Paper City entered a proposal to show at Disjecta. The public voted and Portland Paper City won.
Portland Paper City, an all paper installation collaborative, is being exhibited at Disjecta from Saturday, March 5, 2011 through Saturday, March 26, 2011. The opening reception will be held on Saturday, March 5, 2011 from 6PM-9PM.
