Solo Shows Art Exhibit | SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Please join Gallery 16 for the first exhibition of our Fall Season.
Two simultaneous solo shows by Graham Gillmore and Charles Linder will be showcased, with live music by Virgil Shaw and the Killer Views.

About The Artists:

Graham Gillmore, renown Canadian artist presents “Your Proportions Are Not That Exquisite”. The title is drawn from a text in one of Gillmore’s paintings that seems to puncture the balloon of the current Selfie culture.

He is best known for his extraordinary paintings that use of text as subject. In a 2013 review of Gillmore’s work critic Kenneth Baker wrote “Words worm their way into contemporary art because they worm their way into consciousness. Yet they seem particularly alien to painting. The work of Vancouver native Graham Gillmore at Gallery 16 exploits the bumptious quality of words, especially in the mind’s ear, to fine comic effect. He baits our readiness to assume that the voice represented in an artist’s work must be his own.”

Charles Linder is well known figure in the Bay Area art scene. He founded the seminal exhibition space Refusalon in the early 1990’s, as well as Lincart. Charles will present his fourth solo exhibition at Gallery 16, Invisible Fencing Luminaries. The show will include new sculptural work and paintings. For his fourth solo exhibition at Gallery 16, the artist presents work that use the metaphor of the fence.
