Fraenkel Gallery: Gary Winogrand - circa 1969.
Comment by AB: A gritty nostalgic look back at tumultuous times in America by Gary Winogrand. In the interior gallery, don't miss Katy Grannan's heroic portraits of our most disadvantaged citizens.

Review by Larissa Archer: Niniane Kelley's tintypes are the rare example of a return to an old analog form that seems to have an aesthetic purpose beyond mere nostalgia. She really paints with darkness and light, and portrays the body with an almost Hellenic sense of grace and proportion in an unpredictable and sometimes unforgiving medium.
Comment by AB: Also on exhibit is a 75th Anniversary tribute to the Golden Gate Bridge.
