PICA was founded in 1995 by Kristy Edmunds, who at the time was respected as both a curator and artist, and who is now our Artistic Director.
At that moment in Portland's cultural landscape there was a clear need for contemporary art programming that would cross disciplines and engage a national group of artists with what was predominantly regional and local. Since its founding in 1995, PICA has become a magnet for artists who take creative risks. Through exhibitions, performances, artist residencies and educational programs, PICA enables artists and audiences alike to push the limits of artistic expression and explore provocative new ideas that illuminate life in the here and now.
