Mel Katz is a highly regarded Portland sculptor and teacher whose
work is firmly rooted in the principles of geometric abstraction.
He moved to Portland, Oregon, in 1964 to teach at Portland State
University, where he taught for the next thirty-two years. He
helped found the Portland Center for the Visual Arts in 1971, one
of the first alternative artist spaces in the country. Originally
trained as a painter, Katz has produced a remarkable body of work
over the past fifty years that reflects his unique journey from
painter to sculptor, working in many different media, including
polyurethane, fiberglass, wood, formica, steel, and aluminum. Katz
has been featured in numerous one-person and group exhibitions
throughout the United States, including the First Western States
Biennial. He was the subject of a major retrospective exhibition at
the Portland Art Museum in 1988 and was included in the traveling
exhibition, Still Working, in 1994. His work is included in the
collections of the Hallie Ford Museum of Art, Portland Art Museum,
the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art, the Seattle Art Museum, the
Tacoma Art Museum, the Oregon Arts Commission, the City of Seattle,
and many national corporations.
