The Artistic and Eclectic Will Martin: Selected Works, 1957-1985
The Architectural Heritage Center has invited Docomomo US/Oregon Chapter Members + non-members to join a private tour of the Will Martin exhibit before it closes.
This original exhibition about the Portland and Oregon architect Will Martin (1930-1985), best known as the lead designer of Pioneer Courthouse Square, captures the full range of Martin’s creative and unconventional work as an architect, artist, and imaginative thinker.
The exhibition demonstrates the vibrant fusion between art and architecture as it played out in Martin’s built and unbuilt work across the eras, from his earliest structural explorations in the late 1950s and 1960s, his modernist commercial and residential work integrated with natural landscapes, and his embracing of postmodernism prior to his untimely death in 1985.
Free with a suggested $10 donation at the door, benefiting AHC.
