AWESOME
by StellaMac
Elizabeth Gibbons, Shiloh McCloud at The Palace of the Soul
November 7th 11:00 AM - 6:00 PM
Posted
11/3/09
I have taken this workshop with Shiloh and Elizabeth and it was one of the most phenomenal workshops I have ever taken! They create an environment that is sacred, inspirational, fun and transformational. The painting I created hangs proudly on my wall and, in fact, friends and family want my art for presents - and I have NEVER considered myself an artist. Thank you both for creating this incredible experience. [more]

“[A] qualitative alteration of time…would have the weightiest consequence.” -Giorgio Agamben, Infancy and History
Waxing its way to fullness, or waning its way to newness, the double promise of enrichment and becoming has been brought to bear on the moon. As a venerated celestial body and object of astronomical contemplation, the moon has been made to transcend itself as a powerful and resonant symbol. It is capable of teaching us about our position in the cosmos while providing a distant locat... [more]

Crisis Moments
by Jolene Torr
Pawel Kruk at David Cunningham Projects
August 20th - September 19th
Posted
8/23/09
Entering artist Pawel Kruk’s exhibit is to bear a tense atmosphere; I’m not sure if each piece really peeled away layers of the artist’s (and spectator’s) personal anxiety or if each piece added to the anxiousness of the one before it.
When I walked in, a man was seated at a table under round lights, heavy and clinical like lights in the OR or an interrogation room. There was a TV set with a man reciting contemplations on art, distance, solitude and the material world; the audi... [more]

Waiting for the Siren's Call
by Jolene Torr
Ferris Plock, Kelly Tunstall at 111 Minna Gallery
August 6th - August 29th
Posted

There’s always something a bit tragic and sensational about sea stories— that passion for the open sea, for the things that drift away. The sea is the place where men choose to be, where the ladies along the way are as fleeting as ever. A life of squandered happiness. In this husband and wife joint show, “Sea of Love,” Ferris Plock and Kelly Tunstall create men that are wild-eyed, delirious with wanderlust while the women are serene, swan-necked creatures of the sea.
The pieces are... [more]

In So Many Words
by Kristi Beardshear
at Andrea Schwartz Gallery
August 5th - August 28th
Posted
8/15/09
I had high hopes for WORD, a group exhibition currently on display at Andrea Schwartz Gallery in SoMa. I was attracted by the directness of the show's title and its promise of art mixed with the written word. Like Danielle Steele, who lent her services as guest curator for this show, I am fascinated with work that combines imagery with text and art with literature, a category rich with thematic variety. I envisioned a show that might, for example, examine the nuanced and often tenuous relationsh... [more]

Interim Infills—a 3.5 hour public intervention featuring site-specific work by thirteen artists—took place in what co-curators Sally Szwed and Dan Phelan described as an “underused and underappreciated urban matrix.” Taking the form of a walking tour, the exhibition spanned a complex tangle of roads, ramps, pedestrian walkways, bridges, and meridians above and below the freeway interchange at Cesar Chavez Street and Potrero Avenue in San Francisco. Each work had a fairly ephemeral and porta... [more]
