LINCART - MARK WOLFE - RARE DEVICE YERBA BUENA CENTER FOR THE ARTS 10.25.07 Lincart Gallery: Biome. Artists: Peter Barrickman, Charlie Callahan, Kyle Field, Stefan Kurten, Eleanor Harwood, Suzanne Husky, Sean McFarland, Jay Nelson, Oliver Halsman Rosenberg, Johanna St. Clair. Comment: Johanna St. Clair and Jay Nelson curate up a capable cull of commentaries on our environment, the "Biome" idea implying the necessity for a broader view of how we interpret our surroundings (and hopefully in the process, care for and preserve them). Always entertaining and aesthetically gratifying at Lincart. Art (Suzanne Husky - like it). Art. Art. Art. Art. Art. Art. Tunes. Outer (like that one in the window). *** Mark Wolfe Contemporary Art: Chris Komater - Garden. Comment: Engaging sound and photography installation by Chris Komater who presents images of blossoms alongside those of hairy male torsos, then effectively connects the two up by cropping and combining extracts of hairy male torsos to resemble florals. Photos. Photography. Photographs. Images. Photography. *** Yerba Buena Center for the Arts: BioTechnique. Artists: Denise King, Tissue Culture and Art Project, Philip Ross, industrial technologists, ecological researchers, biological engineers. Comment: Art, life, and innovation merge for an analytic look at scientific research, biotechnology, and the future of our planet. Not your typical art show, and challenging from a curatorial perspective, but nicely presented with plenty of food for thought. Art meets science. Art meets science. Art meets science. Art meets science. Homemade distiller. Antique distilling and winemaking equipment. Micro-laboratories. *** Rare Device: Kelly Lynn Jones - Far From Main Street. Comment: Kelly Lynn Jones concocts curious benign fantasyscapes that float against plain white backgrounds. Rare Device is a new fashion, accents, books, furnishings, and accessories store in the former National Product and I Spy Vintage Decor space. Art. Art. In. Out. |
