June Artist of the Month

Artist Reception
Saturday June 10, 2023
4-6pm
Free and Open to the Public

FRANCA
We are pleased to present the works of Franca, an artist born and raised in Italy, whose passion for art was cultivated by her father's love for Baroque and Renaissance artists. Although her formal training lies in psychology, philosophy, and pedagogy, Franca's artistic journey reflects her deep understanding of human nature. As a primarily self-taught mixed media artist, Franca employs printed backgrounds, collages, drawing, and painting to create compositions that celebrate the beauty of the human body and draw inspiration from her surroundings. Her art reveals a keen eye for patterns, rhythm, and vibrant colors. Join us from June 3rd to 30th to experience Franca's artistic process, a voyage that transcends time and space, and discover the freedom of expression and play within her captivating artwork. Don't miss the artist reception on June 10th from 4-6pm, where you can engage with Franca and delve deeper into her creative world.

We can’t wait to show you what our Lenses have captured. Reception: When: June 3, 2023 Time: 5-9 PM Where: 926 North Yosemite Stockton

Breaking the Rules:
PAUL WONNER AND THEOPHILUS BROWN

n reaction to the widespread pursuit of Abstract Expressionism in the late 1940s and early 1950s, several avant-garde artists in the San Francisco Bay Area began to reengage with the visible world, applying the gestural style of action painting to depictions of people, landscapes, and still lifes.

APRIL 30, 2023 — AUGUST 27, 2023
Amidst the political and social upheaval at the beginning of the 20th century, German and Austrian artists turned to stark, almost brutal imagery to create a new kind of art. Figural distortion, flattened perspective, and straightforward technique served to express their feelings and thoughts in visual form. Ranging from perceptive self-portraits to biting social critiques, this exhibition explores the subjects and styles of Expressionist artists, including Max Beckmann, Georg Grosz, and Käthe Kollwitz.

Kehinde Wiley: An Archaeology of Silence

March 18 – October 15, 2023
American artist Kehinde Wiley’s new body of paintings and sculptures confronts the silence surrounding systemic violence against Black people through the visual language of the fallen figure. It expands on his 2008 series, Down — a group of large-scale portraits of young Black men inspired by Hans Holbein the Younger’s The Dead Christ in the Tomb (1521–1522). Wiley investigates the iconography of death and sacrifice in Western art, tracing it across religious, mythological, and historical subjects. In An Archaeology of Silence, the senseless deaths of men and women around the world are transformed into a powerful elegy of resistance. The resulting paintings of figures struck down, wounded, or dead, referencing iconic paintings of mythical heroes, martyrs, and saints, offer a haunting meditation on the legacies of colonialism and systemic racism.

Ansel Adams in Our Time

April 8 – July 23, 2023
Looking forward and back, this exhibition of more than 100 works by photographer and environmentalist Ansel Adams (1902 – 1984) places him in direct conversation with contemporary artists and the photographers who influenced him. Laid out in seven sections tracing Adams’s artistic development, the exhibition features some of his most-loved photographs, including images of Yosemite, San Francisco, and the American Southwest. Adams’s works are shown alongside prints by 19th-century landscape photographers, such as Carleton Watkins and Eadweard Muybridge, as well contemporary artists like Trevor Paglen, Will Wilson, and Catherine Opie. Their work engages anew with the sites and subjects that occupied Adams throughout his life — from national parks to the use and misuse of natural resources. Adams’s legacy continues to inspire and provoke, influencing how we envision the landscape and serving as an urgent call to preserve our environment.
