On one hand Bonnie Raitt is a Grammy-decorated
pop songstress, on the other she's a socially conscious,
politically active powerhouse of goodness. As her
bio-diesel-fueled bus rolls down the I-5 corridor
from Portland on Wednesday, we like to imagine her
three stops in Oregon (the third is in Bend Sept.
7) are a nod to our mutual appreciation of progressive
thinking (or at least our well-stocked fleet of Toyota
Prius'). Similarly Grammy-gilded, the supernaturally
gifted folk-bluesman Keb' Mo' opens the show
at the Cuthbert Amphitheater. Keb' Mo' frequently
collaborates and tours with Bonnie, so don't be surprised
by a duet here or there Wednesday night. See Wednesday
Calendar.
Susan
Klein of Susan Klein Design Studio leads Lane Arts
Council's September First Friday ARTWalk, starting
5:30 pm at the Downtown Initiative for the Visual
Arts (DIVA). DIVA is currently showing "The Edge Effect,"
a group exhibition with more than 70 DIVA member artists
participating. Stop #2, DNA Photographic, LLC, presents
new work by photographer Rick Maday. White Lotus Gallery,
stop #3, features a mock-up display of the Eugene
Japanese American Art Memorial, with Kenge Kobayashi
discussing his artistic vision. Stop #4, Opus6ix,
features "Progressions," work by Barry Geller, and
"Recent Works" by Pauline Hauder (Flamingos
pictured left). As always, other galleries and shops
downtown are open late but not part of the walk. See
Friday Calendar.
