“Death of a Clown” Exhibit Opening Reception & Live Spoken Word | SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Death of a Clown was inspired by the spooky, surreal quality of abandoned amusement parks such as the Six Flags New Orleans. Are these places truly abandoned? If not, who and what remains?

In this exhibition, a diverse group of artists in the graphic arts community will explore the concept of abandonment. In works large and small, they will create abandoned places and populate them. The printmakers’ works will be linked by Jason Bayani’s spoken word, laid out in text form on the gallery walls and performed live at the opening and closing receptions.

The exhibition is a metaphorical examination of a world that is increasingly divided into those who are present and those who have been erased. This is the new reality of “haves” and “have nots” – and it is more than economic.

Featured printmakers include:

• David Avery
• Jonathan Barcan
• Art Hazelwood
• Golbanou Moghaddas
• Patrick Piazza
• Eric Rewitzer
• Jenny Robinson
• Patricia Rodriquez.
