One of graphic artist Edel Rodriguez's Time covers.

Edel Rodriguez

If you read or follow Time magazine, you've seen Edel Rodriguez's Donald Trump art. Rodriguez's bold graphics present the 45th president as a big clump of bright yellow hair atop an equally bright orange, mostly featureless face – except for a prominent mouth. The artist's political works, including a new motion graphic, get their first exhibit in Portland; it's titled "Agent Orange," after the weaponized herbicide from the Vietnam War. 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday-Friday through Feb. 23, Wieden & Kennedy, 224 N.W. 13th Ave. Free, wk.com or 503-937-7000.

Mark Morris Dance Group

If you missed Mark Morris' "Pepperland" when it premiered in Liverpool, now's your chance to see it (and if you did see it, now you can see it again, you lucky duck.) Created at Liverpool's request to mark the 50th anniversary of The Beatles' iconic "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" album, "Pepperland" is one of many Morris creations to embody memorable music (although "Pepperland" features an Ethan Iverson score that blends his original music with his arrangements of "Sgt. Pepper" songs.) Expect expertly executed, colorfully costumed contemporary dance brimming with joy.

7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 21, Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, 1037 S.W. Broadway. $30-$78, whitebird.org or 503-245-1600.
