Up and
coming artist Alec Egan's work was featured in an exhibition and sale during
the month of January 2008 at Studio 2507 in Portland, Oregon.
In celebration of the
opening of this talented young artist's first professional showing, a wine
and cheese reception was hosted by the artist's mother, Kate Mulgrew, at
the gallery on January 4th, 2008.

"We walked into the small crowded gallery
to see the opening of Alec Egan’s art work. We were immediately greeted
by Kate Mulgrew with wine and a welcome. I loved several things about
going to the opening, one of which was an opportunity to speak with the
artist about his work and his feeling about the painting he had done on
found wood. His passion for his work was obvious in his painting
and his sharing about the paintings we viewed. His Mother was very
attentive to those who came to view her son's painting, offering food and
wine. You could feel the devotion to her son." - Beverly Brosius
We found Alec and discussed his art with
him on several occasions. I found him to be extremely intelligent and honest.
He said he considers his art "ugly art", done with purpose to strike a
chord with it's audience and make them think about their own darksides,
the darksides of today's culture, and the disturbing aspects of politics/the
state of the world today. Sure, he can do beautiful art......landscapes,
lovely portraits, etc....but to change the world sometimes you have to
leave the comfort zone of pleasantness and delve into the angsty hidden
side that can be found in all of us. Read

Information
A great imperial power decides to go to
war, taking an action so wrong that it sets the empire on the road to complete
self-destruction. Agamemnon, the leader of the Greek army, must prove to
his uncertain troops that the dangerous battle they are about to undertake
is righteous and worthy by making the ultimate sacrifice himself. A radical
reinvention of the classic play by Euripides that examines the costs of
war and loss of innocence. |

Kate appears in the
National Alzheimer's Association Awareness Campaign
The campaign challenges five million Americans
to become a Champion – one for every person currently living with the disease
– to fight against Alzheimer’s. A Champion is one who will OPEN minds and
learn the facts about Alzheimer’s to help us educate others; VOICE support,
become an advocate, help spread the word about this disease; and MOVE the
Alzheimer’s Association’s cause forward by joining a local Memory Walk,
donating to the Alzheimer’s Association or volunteering at the local chapter.
To find out more about becoming a
Champion, visit www.actionalz.org
and also watch Kate in the MOVE
video. You may need to click on the words OPEN, VOICE, MOVE in
the purple banner across the top of the page.
