Gallery Paule Anglim: Joan Brown; Katherine Sherwood.

Comment by AB: Although Joan Brown passed away in 1990, she left behind an incredible range and array of art that continues to thrill. On view for this exhibition are paintings and drawings from the early 1970s through the early 1980s including a couple of marvelous large self-portraits. In the anteroom, marvel at arrestingly unsettling Odalisque compositions by Katherine Sherwood. Excellent art on both counts.

Artists: Amy Ho, Dimitra Skandali with collaborators Heejin Jang and David Janesko, Reuben Telushkin, Ben Valentine in collaboration with An Xiao Mina..

Comment by AB: This interactive and participatory show is about connectivity in the world today and how its seeming state of continual overdrive, but that's no reason for the installations to look more like a shambles than anything else.

Comment by AB: Tons of art up for bids tonight at this silent auction fundraiser to benefit Hospitality House, an organization that's served the homeless in San Francisco's Tenderloin neighborhood since 1967. In case you missed it, now's the perfect time of year make a donation. In fact, their annual Holiday Sale is on through January 9, 2015 with a reception and art market happening on December 12. Check their website for details.
