Born in China during the Cultural Revolution and raised in a family of artists, Hong Chun Zhang makes large ink paintings of hair using a traditional Chinese painting style called Gongbi. She often paints images based on her own long hair. Through these artworks, Hong meditates about who she is and how her life has changed after moving from China to the United States.

This career retrospective surveys five decades of artwork by self-trained painter and printmaker James Lavadour (American, Walla Walla, b. 1951). The paintings, prints, and multi-panel grids chart his creative output from the 1980s, when he became a full-time working artist, to his most recent artworks, created in 2025. His artistic practice is grounded in sustained looking, informed by walking, driving, stopping, and observing the landscape over the course of many decades, specifically the land of the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation, outside Pendleton, Oregon.
