Kurtiss Lofstrom: “Lobby Posters for a Cinema That Does Not Exist”
1-31 December 2015
The historic Academy Theater in Southeast Portland, Oregon is the site of Kurtiss Lofstrom’s series of recent collage, “Lobby Posters for a Cinema That Does Not Exist”.
Kurtiss Lofstrom has worked in music, super 8 & 16mm film, painting, mosaic, glass, and collage. His work explores the formal aspects of materials, composition, the collision of past, present and future, and the nature of public imagery. He is primarily a self-taught artist, although he studied creative writing, theatre, and film at Goddard College in Plainfield, Vermont. He grew up in Seattle and currently lives and works in Portland, Oregon.
Kolaj Magazine profiled Lofstrom in issue 12. You can also see more of his work on his website and his Kolaj Magazine Artist Directory page (here).
