Portland Institute for Contemporary Art’s annual convergence of contemporary performance, dance, music, new media and visual arts projects in Portland, Oregon. Now in its sixth year, the Time-Based Art (TBA) Festival is presented from September 4-14, 2008 with visual art installations running until October 4. The TBA Festival examines and celebrates every form of contemporary art and is the only festival of its kind in North America. TBA is an cutting-edge, outlandish, and interactive Festival that turns the city into a performance space, offering workshops, installations, performances, and no shortage of late-night activity.
PICA acknowledges and advances new developments in contemporary art while fostering the creative explorations of artists and audiences. Established in 1995 by a committed group of artists and patrons, PICA features emerging regional, national, and international artists in all disciplines, bridging the gap between historically-focused collecting institutions, commercial galleries and performing arts presenters. PICA’s enduring passion adds significant value to the arts ecology of the region.
