	damali ayo \| exile in whitesville
		She moved to Portland on whim: All she knew about the city was that it rained a lot and it was whiter than tuna salad on Wonder Bread.
		Though its racial makeup is not unique, ayo believes that Portland in particular lives "in a kind of delayed politic...all the communities that I've met are still dealing with issues that I dealt with 10 years ago." Ironically, the very culture ayo exposes as ignorant via her artwork has embraced and celebrated her creations.
		She is one of the founders of the defunkt theatre company, which specializes in contemporary and unproduced works, and she has taken on the local theater community for its racism.

		PICA is aware of this and Ive had nice conversations with the staff, they know they have challenges and frankly they have been awaiting high level staff decisions which have made things a bit shakey (because they have been filling those positions).

	Willamette Week Online \| Performance \| REVIEW \| TBA DIARY • Portland Institute for Contemporary Art defies its ...
		Portland Institute for Contemporary Art defies its critics with a fantastic and successful performance festival.
		PICA deserves applause as well for Swift: Warby created the show, in part, through her 2001 residency at the institute.
		Her theme--the plight of poor women in the borderlands of the global economy--is important, and part of the set-up of the piece, a museum diorama of a dead woman who was used for a work of "art," could have made for a powerful performance.

		The Melbourne International Arts Festival's new artistic director for 2005 and 2006, Kristy Edmunds, is the first non-Australian to head the festival since Gian Carlo Menotti in 1986.
		Although the common reaction to her appointment by various arts figures yesterday was "Kristy who?" she has strong Melbourne connections.
		Ms Edmunds said she immediately connected with Melbourne's civic tenor which she says is similar to Portland and Seattle, but she was mostly impressed by our aggressive architecture, urban planning and the lively community of artists.

		SINCE ITS INCEPTION in 1995, the Portland Institute of Contemporary Art (PICA) has fulfilled its mission—bringing experimental works directly to the community—by mounting temporary installations and performances in vacant warehouses throughout the city.
		Luckily, a generous offer came from the advertising firm Wieden and Kennedy, a PICA supporter who saw the potential for creative synergy between the two organizations.
		They also had to accommodate a range of media—from video art to large-scale sculpture—and somehow work in additional display surfaces, since the corner space had wide expanses of 12-ft. windows.
