I’d strongly recommend against purchasing the app for this exhibit. Six of the items on the app can be found for free online because they are taken directly out of programs from other institutions. The links provided below lead to the unedited source material and provide a much fuller understanding of the artists represented in the exhibit. These links expose the viewer to amazing resources that will enable them to further enrich their exploration of contemporary art. The content created specifically for the exhibit does little justice to the artists or their work, and reflects poorly on the Portland Art Museum, Portland State University, and Pacific Northwest College of Art. Overall, the App feels like an ill-conceived attempt at incorporating technology (giving undue respect to the novelty of an iPod tour) into an exhibit at an institution that struggles to be relevant.

I found this show terribly disappointing. Most of the works are on loan from the Eli and Edythe Broad Foundation, so it's all the latest and trendiest artists. If that's your thing, you'll love the show. Personally, I found it all very slick, commercial and shallow. Like a lot of contemporary work, it reflects the artists' and the art audience's interest in novelty and production values. I love the museum, but I'm not sure why they wanted to climb onto this particular bandwagon.
