Biographical Note

Bill Rhoades is a collector of Northwest Art, residing in Central Oregon. He is a native Oregonian and outdoors-man. Rhoades' interest in art collecting includes American Indian basketry and modern Northwest prints and paintings. In 1997, he made arrangements with Roger Hull, Professor Emeritus of Art History at Willamette University, to begin making donations of art to the Hallie Ford Museum of Art. His donations include works by Jack McLarty, Coralee Popp, John Stahl and Manuel Izquierdo. Rhoades' goal in 1997 was to donate at least 100 works of art to the Hallie Ford Museum. By 2005 he had already accomplished and exceeded that goal.

Content Description

The Bill Rhoades Northwest Art Archive is a collection of artifacts, interviews, photographs and printed materials from a wide variety of Northwest artists. Bill Rhoades has been an advocate for Northwest Art since before 1997, when he began donating collected artworks to the Hallie Ford Museum of Art. In addition to collecting and donating artwork, Rhoades has collected printed materials, interviews, artifacts, and correspondence that highlight Northwest artists and their work. This Archive includes the work of Northwest sculptors, painters, printmakers, and photographers. Also included are newsletters and exhibition materials from institutions such as the Portland Art Museum, the Fountain Gallery of Art and the Seattle Art Dealers Association. Along with the representation of Northwest art, are photographs and correspondence with Rhoades and his family and friends covering topics of dogs, travel, and hunting.
