David M. Roth

Bolles & Westerhout @ SFMOMA Artists Gallery

April 7, 2011

The success of this unlikely pairing shows what can happen when inspired curatorial vision bridges the divide we sometimes erect between media.

John Hundt & Camilla Newhagen @ Jack Fischer

March 24, 2011

In Hundt and Newhagen the fighting spirit of Dada is alive and well. Their work points to the extant power of irrationality.

Alex Couwenberg @ Andrea Schwartz

February 15, 2011

Couwenberg mixes the spatial ambiguity of cyberspace with the disorienting angularity of Cubo Futurism — recasting the Southern California landscape as a mind-bending interior experience.

Tony May @ SJICA

January 27, 2011

Tony May’s SJICA retrospective showcases the artist’s genius for embedding strong ideas in meticulously crafted objects that both tweak and invoke art history.

Chris Daubert @ Blue Line

December 26, 2010

Action/reaction is the governing principle in this interactive light-and-sound installation in which the audience is both instigator and spectator.

The Robert Ortbal Interview

December 15, 2010

Robert Ortbal’s sculptures explore essences. Not actual essences, as in molecular structures, but unfathomable things: like the physical structure of smells as they exist in psychological, emotional and sensory space.

Linda Geary @ Rena Bransten

November 26, 2010

In the Bay Area, you’d be hard-pressed to find a more exuberant, more imaginative painter than Linda Geary. Using oil, watercolor and spray paint, Geary has charted new frontiers in biomorphic abstraction.

Seth Koen @ Gregory Lind Gallery

November 18, 2010

With great economy and visual imagination, Koen creates elegant and deliciously open-ended works that tweak the orthodoxies of Minimalism while simultaneously engaging them with serious craft.

John Yoyogi Fortes @ Jack Fischer

November 16, 2010

Fortes creates an electrically charged, claustrophobic atmosphere filled with high-def images and stupefying excess, where nothing makes sense and everything seems wrapped in a cocoon of white noise.

Cornelia Schulz @ Patricia Sweetow

November 11, 2010

Talk about mixing macrocosmic and microcosmic views. Cornelia Schultz gives them to us from on high and from inside the planet’s nooks and crannies – all in the same picture.

The All-New Crocker Art Museum

November 3, 2010

The “oldest museum in the West” has tripled in size. Now, for the first time ever, the Crocker can really show its stuff. A list of its holdings reads like a Who’s Who of Northern California art in the post-WWII era.

Wayne Thiebaud @ The Crocker Art Museum

October 23, 2010

Thiebaud’s 4th solo show at The Crocker since 1951 comes at a propitious time: the museum’s 125th anniversary, the opening of its tripled-in-size exhibition space and the artist’s 90th birthday.

Natural and Creative Capital @ Montalvo

September 8, 2010

Here, at the base of the Santa Cruz Mountains, in a gallery exhibition and in a series of site-specific works, seven artists of vastly different persuasions, examine the complex and often conflicted relationships we have with animals and nature.
