SUMMARY:Master Penworks of Tom Stefopoulos: The Hellenic Artist of the Lovejoy Columns
DESCRIPTION:The Hellenic-American Cultural Center and Museum (HECCM) presents “Master Penworks of Tom Stefopoulos: The Hellenic Artist of the Lovejoy Columns” May 5 through June 4. The exhibit is available during Capitol hours\, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. \nAthanasios (Tom) Efthimiou Stefopoulos was a factory worker\, railroad man\, commercial artist\, and a champion penman. Art was his first love but pursuing this was difficult for a young immigrant in an adopted country where he did not even speak the language. In 1945\, he was employed by the Spokane\, Portland & Seattle Railroad to work as a crossing watchman under the Lovejoy Ramp of the Broadway Bridge in Portland\, Oregon. It was here that the artist created the iconic “Lovejoy Columns.” This exhibition considers the range of Stefopoulos’ art\, from pen drawings to the murals that graced the Lovejoy Columns. His style is a unique blend of calligraphic lines and Art Nouveau\, and his themes span Ancient Greek philosophy to contemporary world events. In style and in theme\, Stefopoulos blended a myriad of influences\, a result of a life lived in multiple places and among many people. Despite a life that was characterized by movement and synthesis\, however\, the Lovejoy Columns represent a sense of belonging to specific place—in this case\, to Oregon. Stefopoulos’ art gives insight into how the artist envisioned himself in this new home. \nThis exhibit was one of three that were awarded Capitol History Gateway exhibit sponsorships in the first year of the program. Exhibits are funded\, in part\, by the Oregon State Capitol Foundation\, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.

SUMMARY:The Breasts of Tirésias
DESCRIPTION:The Breasts of Tiresias\nMusic by Francis Poulenc and Lyics by Gillaume Apollinaiare\nGender norms pop like balloons in The Breasts of Tiresias\, Poulenc and Appollinaire’s bawdy surrealist romp. Frustrated with the life of a housewife\, Tiresias sheds her breasts and becomes the male General Tirésias. As she leads a new life fighting distant wars on foreign battlefields\, her stay-at-home husband discovers a way to make babies on his own – but not just one: 40\,049 of them. This delightfully sugar-coated pill coats the sublime in the ridiculous.
