Announcing Winston Smith Solo Exhibition: “I Saw but I Did Not See” – New Works and Classic Pieces presented by Studio Fallout, North Beach

Friday, June 6^th at 7:30pm San Francisco, CA: Studio Fallout is proud to announce the first San Francisco solo exhibition by Winston Smith since 2023. Fueled by the turn in current events, Winston has been cutting and pasting day and night to create an all-new set of originals, supplemented by provocative and prophetic works from the past. To take the edge off, he is also including pieces that are more playful and reflective. From Renaissance to Dada, this exhibition promises a journey of the psyche, from the nightmare of oppression to the Surrealist dreamscape of the imagination.

“I’m looking forward to debuting this exhibition” says Winston Smith, Creative Director at Studio Fallout. “We’ll be showcasing new originals as well as some of my favorite classic compositions from the past, complimented by some whimsical, thought-provoking pieces to soften the blow. Hope you can make the scene!”
