    Gregory Lind Gallery: Will Yackulic - Enigma Variations.

    Review by RWM: Great small stoneware flasks that defy their size in design. Some almost defy gravity as well as expectations. These are mighty structures that one can hold in their palms. Despite their number they are all individual and original. This is a show that rewards the close observer; fun to enjoy the whimsy. Some of these forms are not easy to classify.

    Comment by AB: Good show and worth a visit. While you're at it, you might seriously consider adding one of these precious smalls to your curio cabinet.

    Ever Gold Gallery: Oh How Much It Hurt - Fred Martin and Friends in the '50s. Curated by John Held, Jr.

    Artists: Fred Martin, Jay DeFeo, Wally Hedrick, Deborah Remington, David Simpson, Roy De Forest.

    Comment by AB: This glimpse of San Francisco art in the 1950s features rare early works by six Bay Area artists. A number of them have not been seen in public for nearly sixty years since originally being shown at Six Gallery (San Francisco, 1954-57). Check it out.

    Inclusions Gallery: Kim Smith Studio & Warehouse Sale.

    Review by RWM: Wonderful execution. Great variety. Enough small collage works here to examine for hours. Beautiful show which showcases a long chronicle. Interesting work for all sorts and of all sorts.

    Root Division: Soft Muscle. Curated by Adrienne Heloise.

    Artists: Craig Calderwood, Torreya Cummings, Terry Furry, Michael Hall, Adrienne Heloise, Ellen Lake, Monica Lundy, Kara Maria, Stephanie Metz, Victoria May, Masako Miki, Julie Sutherland, Melissa Wyman.

    Review by RWM: Sexy show with something here for all kinds of people. The work is a little graphic at times, though the subject, the body, is not presented in any pornographic manner. Not always easy to pull all the disparate art here together, but as usual, a fascinating place to come as see a great variety of work, especially an amazing encounter with the animal kingdom in the dark by Masako Miki. Fun show for the vital and lively.

    White Walls & Shooting Gallery: GODDAMN - Greg Gossel; Bloom - Charmaine Olivia; Sex In Suburbia - Andrea Joyce Heimer; Blood and Ink - Justin Kerson.

    Comment by AB: Tonight's extravaganza at the White Walls & Shooting Gallery art emporium features layered snippets of history against abstract backgrounds in screenprint and paint combinations by Greg Gossel in the front gallery, adventures in sensuality by Charmaine Olivia in the central gallery, notable tattoos by notable tattooists printed in blood and ink by Justin Kerson in the left project space, and a kicky entertaining dissertation on erotic encounters in the burbs (each painting with a captivating caption) by Joyce Heimer in the right project space (my personal favorite - like it). Never any shortage of viewing options and opportunities at this establishment.
