111 Minna Gallery is kicking off ’09 in presenting a stellar group show, entitled First Things First. An exhibition showcasing both well-established and emerging talents, First Things First will open this Thursday, January 8, 2009 with many of the artists in attendance.
“Our aim is to present a number of promising young artists side by side with established talent that have both been underexposed in the Bay Area,” states The Gallery. “The collection has been assembled by 111 Minna Gallery Curator Gabe Scott, 111 Minna Associate Curator Jay Howell and former Upper Playground Associate Curator Lainya Magana. A fresh perspective on two-dimensional creations will be represented from the United States, Brazil, Germany, Slovenia and Australia and will encompass painting, collage, architectural design as well as street installations.”
First Things First will feature work by: Ryan Bubnis (Portland, OR), Robert Hardgrave (Seattle, WA), Clynton Lowry (San Francisco, CA), Nicole Hagen (San Francisco, CA), James Blagdon (New York, NY), Taska Cleveland (Los Angeles, CA), Kelly Ording (San Francisco, CA), Mario Wagner (Cologne, Germany), Rafael Sliks (Sao Paolo, Brazil), Sarah Spitler (San Francisco, CA), Jacob Magraw (Los Angeles, CA), Yellana James (Portland, OR), and Rene Almanza (Oaxaca, Mexico).
Don’t miss this exciting opportunity to check out some great work by established artists Ryan Bubnis (work shown above) and Robert Hardgrave (work below) along with pieces by the rising artistic talents you may be seeing much more of in the future.
