recently, a new exhibition, titled ENERGY THAT IS ALL AROUND opened at the Walter and McBean galleries at SFAI. it's an incredibly comprehensive exhibition of Mission School art, with works by Barry McGee, Margaret Kilgallen, Chris Johanson, Ruby Neri and Alicia McCarthy. i went to the opening on 12 september, and it was, in a word, joyous. there were so many people in attendance, there was live music, and exuberant, relevant art. it has been awhile since i felt the surge of energy (no pun intended) that ENERGY THAT IS ALL AROUND produced. i encourage anyone in the SF bay area to check it out. you have until december 14. there is a slew of events in conjunction with the exhibition, which you can check out, here.
big shout-out to the curator, Natasha Boas, and the assistant curator Nicole Crescenzi with whom i worked at the Museum of Craft and Folk Art.
