The Portland Art Museum’s new Rothko Pavilion is opening this week. This means the entire museum’s collection will be under one roof for the first time since it opened in 1932. The pavilion represents the last 20 years of executive director Brian Ferriso's vision and direction: unifying the institution, focusing on community experience, and creating a more inclusive and accessible space. That makes it bittersweet that next week, Brian leaves his post at PAM to lead the Dallas Museum of Art. Today on City Cast Portland, executive director Brian Ferriso joins us to share everything we need to know about the Rothko Pavilion opening and to reflect on his time leading the largest art institution in the state.
