Andrea Schwartz Gallery: Danäe Anderson - The Conversation.

Comment by AB: Appealing abstracts by Danäe Anderson incorporate representations of memories, snippets of language, and rudimentary objects, symbols and forms, the sum total of which coalesce into spontaneous intuitive frolics.

Dogpatch Cafe: Ghost Bike - A Photographic Journey by Genea Barnes.

Comment by AB: "Ghost bikes" memorialize riders who have lost their lives in bicycle accidents. Some of the images in this show are of actual memorials; others are digitally enhanced with photographic "apparitions" to remind viewers that precious human lives have been lost. Every year, over 600 cyclists lose their lives in accidents and over 50,000 more are injured. Let's do what we can to keep each other safe.
