The Town of Danville presents Offerings: Works of Text and Image during a juried and invitational exhibit which features artists associated with the MFA programs at San Francisco’s California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) from September 10 through October 29. Curated by Cindy Shearer, pieces of work will include works of text and image, abstract painting, artist books, mixed media, comics, photography, sculpture and handmade postcards.
“Artists explore how their work allows them to give anew, re-give in new form what they have offered before or give back in new forms what has been offered to them. What the artists say, how they use language in their work, their relationship to visual forms allows for multi-layered, multi-faceted offerings—and challenges viewers to inquire into what offering means for them and how they want to give.” Cindy Shearer, MFA interdisciplinary program director at CIIS.
Featured artists include: Franceska Alexander, Salma Arastu, Jessa Brie Berkner, Jenelle Campion, Tricia Grame, Sarah Loomis, Aaron Rose, Nanci Price Scoular, Cindy Shearer, Tim Stapleton, Orlonda Uffre and April Zachary-Serr.
