This September, the Gallery at the Park is bringing you an exciting new sculpture and photography exhibition, featuring three fantastic artists!

Ray Bidegain

A photographer fascinated by the science and the art of photography and printmaking, Ray Bidegain taught himself platinum printing, wet plate collodion, and photogravure. His work has been exhibited across the United States and in France, Germany, and Scotland.

Bidegain’s exhibition, Les Petites Vues, is a limited-edition series of photogravure prints from work he made while traveling in Europe. He is most drawn to photographing the small views and most inspired by the details of stonework, design, and history.

Harley Cowan

Harley Cowan is a heritage photographer and architect, often photographing places of historical significance. He is a Van Evera Bailey Fellow and recipient of the Access Award from Vernacular Architecture Forum. In 2019, he was inducted into the Atomic Photographers Guild for his photography of the Manhattan Project.

Cowan has held residencies with the National Park Service, University Club of Portland, and the Arctic Circle Expeditionary Residency in Svalbard. His silver gelatin prints have been exhibited nationally and internationally, and he has prints in private and public collections, including the Historic American Buildings Survey at the Library of Congress.

David Drake

David Drake has trained as both an artist and a designer. His sculptural objects and installations have been exhibited in the United States and Canada. His work as a designer includes contemporary furniture and production design for theatre and independent film.

Drake’s new body of work is a return to individual object-making, based on unrealized ideas in his sketchbooks from 25 years ago. December 2024 marked 10 years since Drake was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease, and his latest work reflects his shifting physical relationship to the act of making.
