John Yoyogi Fortes at SFMOMA Caffé Museo
May 21st - June 30th
Posted
6/25/09
Gestural, textured and asymmetrical, John Yoyogi Fortes' show at the SFMOMA Caffé Museo is a punk rock alternative to the American modernist legends Georgia O'Keeffe and Ansel Adams currently showing upstairs. While O'Keeffe's and Adams' work reflects the beauty of the outside world, Fortes' psychological landscapes strive to illustrate complexity of the self. His canvases are layered with impulsive colors, patterns and shapes which accumulate to both expose and conceal. Collaged images, of... [more]

Mithila Painting
by E-Slant Team
Shalinee Kumari at Frey Norris Gallery
June 18th - July 19th
Posted
6/21/09
At least since the 14th century, women in the Mithila region of the state of Bihar in northeast India have painted auspicious images on the walls of their homes. Traditionally, these paintings were done on ritual occasions, especially to celebrate marriages, and encourage fertility and prosperity. Over time several distinctive styles of Mithila painting have evolved. Then in the late 1960s the women began transferring these paintings to paper for sale. Today, woman in the region still ador...

Brett Amory at Fecal Face Dot Gallery

(Author's note: The following is excerpted from a longer post on my blog, Arteaser)
We headed over to Fecal Face Dot Gallery (FFDG) for the latest installment of their "In-N-Out" series, which featured Brett Amory:
I really enjoyed a new series of small paintings (above) based on a dream:
Amory also had a couple of new pieces from the "Waiting" series up:
Sadly, the show was only up for four days and is already down. As the name implies, the "In-N-Out" series are week long shows with openings on Thursdays.
Amory (below right) was in attendance ta... [more]

Sacred Mountain @ St Mary's
by Patricia Wakida
at Hearst Art Gallery
May 2nd - July 3rd
Posted
6/8/09
A quest for divine beauty and the role of the artist in preserving and exalting images of sacred nature provides the poetic foundation of Sacred Mountain: Images of Mount Diablo and Mount Fuji. Sacred Mountain is curated by St. Mary’s Hearst Gallery collections manager, Julie Armistead, who arduously collected and researched the artists, as the extended captions indicate. The show itself is impressive alone in its breadth (the earliest Mount Fuji work is from circa 1810, and the... [more]

Artist as Subject, Curator, and Author
by Michelle Y. Hyun
Alice Shaw at Gallery 16
May 21st - July 3rd
Posted
5/31/09
Artist-curated exhibitions are a particularly interesting site of information and disinformation about the artist. Alice Shaw creates a prescribed path of viewing around the gallery in a trajectory that begins with what at first may appear to be a very self-indulgent series of work. It begins with a self-portrait, shot in a style similar to her previous identity-based work, and moves on to non-photographic work and documents created by others. Auto Portrait (2003) is followed by an exhibition statemen... [more]
