Introductions 20211131 Mission Street
San Francisco, CA

Root Division presents Introductions 2021, the 15th iteration of our annual juried exhibition. The Introductions exhibition showcases the talent of twelve emerging artists, highlighting artists without gallery representation in the San Francisco Bay Area. Three jurors selected the artists based on the conceptual and formal strength of their work through a highly competitive juror review process of over 200 submissions. The resulting exhibition includes a diverse range of media and subject matter featuring painting, sculpture, video, and installation. This presentation is one of the keystones of Root Division’s gallery program, offering artists exposure to the art community and beyond through an exhibition, reception, and a print publication.

More Than 700 Years: SFAI Faculty Exhibition On View: June 7–September 1Opening Reception: June 7 | 5–8pm at SFAI—Fort Mason CampusClosing Reception: August 30 | 5–8pm at SFAI—Chestnut Street Campus A faculty exhibition, by its very nature, is a model of the teaching community of the institution that produces it and hosts it. More Than 700 Years, the title of the SFAI 2019 Faculty Exhibition, springs from the summation of time invested by each participating faculty member; an amalgam of years of activity both in the studio and in the classroom. In this way, the showcase is an intersection of education, nuanced artistic labor, and dedication. The exhibition is an opening of a window into a contingent space — a convergence of incidents and objects that braid together the practices of the community that imparts knowledge and experience at SFAI. More Than 700 Years — spanning both campuses at Fort Mason Center and Chestnut Street — is also a sweet farewell to the gradua

Each artist is inspired by the development of story and pattern; the story by which their work evolves, and the patterns that begin to take shape through their medium and subject matter.  Come meet and mingle with the artists as we enjoy the fruits of their labor! Light refreshments will be provided.

Reimagine: The Art Behind Upcycling934 Brannan Street
San Francisco, CA

Artists are prone to upcycling without realizing it. Walking by discarded items on the street they think "why would someone throw this away?" Because Artists can see beyond the hours of frustrating repair and instead find a creative and more beautiful way of reimagining their newly found object. ArtSlooth wants to celebrate the talents of Artists who use their creativity to upcycle what is often waste to others. Come support Bay Area artists at SOMarts in San Francisco. Have a drink, listen to music and bid on some art! All featured art for sale through our fun and easy bidding app ArtSlooth. You never know, you may walk home with a piece of art under your arm.
