SFAC GALLERY: Chain Reaction 11
February 12-May 16
Opening Reception:
Feb 12, 5:30 - 9pm
For this Chain Reaction, ten artists will be selected; those artists will then each choose an artist and then those artists will choose an artist. Works by thirty artists will be exhibited at our three locations: the Main Gallery in the Veterans Building, our window installations site at 155 Grove Street and our exhibition space at San Francisco’s City Hall. Chain Reaction 11 takes the pulse of the current Bay Area art scene and allows us to get inside the artists’ minds to see what they find most compelling. See more...
