Studio Saturdays

San Francisco CA – September 29, 2003 – Gallery OneZero announces "Studio Saturdays," an ongoing exhibit featuring local photographers, painters, and other artists. Each artist has several works on display, with more available in bins or flat files.

Stop by any Saturday afternoon to browse a diverse selection of work from San Francisco artists' studios. The inaugural Studio Saturdays exhibit includes acrylic paintings by Gary Hauser; digital images by Ellen Bergeron; photographs of Japan by Colin Warner; gelatin silver prints from Nancy Warner’ Chinatown series; and color inkjet prints from her Visual Diary series. Each artist has several works on display, with more available in bins or flat files.

As always, the show includes an installation under the gallery’s big skylight. This time it features garden art by Michelina Labat: she has combined her hand-blown glass "GardenBubbles" with large sculptures made from chunks of broken concrete and other urban debris.

Ellen Bergeron

Ellen Bergeron creates digital photographs by arranging objects directly on a scanner and manipulating the resulting images in Photoshop. A self-taught artist, she has recently begun using this medium to create small, whimsical images based on simple geometric figures, reflections, and both natural and man-made objects.

Gary Hauser

Gary Hauser has been drawing and painting for over thirty years, and has been exhibited by various galleries in New York and the Bay Area. This exhibit includes recent acrylic paintings and some pieces from his X series, created in New York in the mid-1990s.

His paintings are built up in layers, using a mixture of acrylic paint and molding paste, which he then excavates by sanding or scratching. As he says, "the surface becomes a site of remembering and forgetting."

GardenBubbles

One reviewer described her GardenBubbles like this:

"They seem to have floated into the garden from above, like a scene from the French classic, The Red Balloon. The bright translucent balls almost hover among the plants, ready at any moment to take flight and disappear into the sky."
