At Fillmore and Geary, it’s all of the above By Kellie Ell once vibrant mural on the south side of the Boom Boom Room at Fillmore and Geary is now covered Ain gold, hot pink and white spray paint and other graffi ti. Looming above, the next-door National Dollar store has painted its name and a parade of products it sells — soda, crackers, ketchup, sugar and toilet bowl cleaner — all intermixed with graffi ti. Alexander Andreas, owner of the Boom Boom Room, says the mural depict- ing jazz musicians on his building went undamaged for six years. But now it is “totally tagged,” he says, and vandals have also etched graffi ti into the glass walls and top of the new designer bus shelter and smashed its back wall. Andreas blames the rise in vandalism on the recent repositioning of the 38-Geary bus shelter. Before it was at the curb. Now it is backed up against the wall of the Boom Boom Room, providing shelter for taggers to deface property out of sight. “It’s absurd,” he says. “Th e city did a disservice.

  • Abstract and Figurative: Highlights of Bay Area Painting January 8 – February 28, 2009 John Berggruen Gallery Is Pleased to Pr
    Abstract and Figurative: Highlights of Bay Area Painting January 8 – February 28, 2009 John Berggruen Gallery is pleased to present Abstract and Figurative: Highlights of Bay Area Painting, a survey of historical works celebrating the iconic art of the Bay Area Figurative movement. The exhibition will occupy two floors of gallery space and will include work by artists Elmer Bischoff, Theophilus Brown, Richard Diebenkorn, Manuel Neri, Nathan Oliveira, David Park, Wayne Thiebaud, James Weeks, and Paul Wonner. Abstract and Figurative is accompanied by an illustrated catalogue with an introduction by art historian and Director of the Palm Springs Art Museum and former Associate Director and Chief Curator of the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, Steven A. Nash. Many of the works included in Abstract and Figurative are on loan from museums and private collections and have rarely been exhibited to the public. John Berggruen Gallery is proud to have this opportunity to bring these paintings together in commemoration of the creative accomplishments of such distinguished artists. Please join us for our opening reception on Thursday, January 8, 2009 between 5:30 and 7:30 pm. Nash writes, “There is no more fabled chapter in the history of California Art than the audacious stand made by Bay Area Figurative painters against Abstract Expressionism in the 1950s.” This regionalized movement away from the canon of the New York School (as championed by artists Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning, and critic Clement Greenberg, among others) finds its roots in 1949, when a young painter by the name of David Park “gathered up all his abstract- expressionist canvases and, in an act that has gone down in local legend, drove to the Berkeley city dump and destroyed them.”1 Disillusioned with the strict non-representational tenets of a movement that promoted the Greenbergian notion of “purity” in art towards a perpetually evolving abstraction, Park submitted Kids on Bikes (1950), a small figurative painting, to a 1951 competitive exhibition and won.

  • Visions of the Davis Art Center
    Lost and Found: Visions of the Davis Art Center Permanent Collection 1967-1992 October 8 – November 19, 2010 This page is intentionally blank 2 Lost and Found: Visions of the Davis Art Center In the fall of 2008, as the Davis Art Center began preparing for its 50th anniversary, a few curious board members began to research the history of a permanent collection dating back to the founding of the Davis Art Center in the 1960s. They quickly recognized that this collection, which had been hidden away for decades, was a veritable treasure trove of late 20th century Northern California art. It’s been 27 years since the permanent collection was last exhibited to the public. Lost and Found: Visions of the Davis Art Center brings these treasures to light. Between 1967 and 1992 the Davis Art Center assembled a collection of 148 artworks by 92 artists. Included in the collection are ceramics, paintings, drawings, lithographs, photographs, mixed media, woodblocks, and textiles. Many of the artists represented in the collection were on the cutting edge of their time and several have become legends of the art world. Lost and Found: Visions of the Davis Art Center consists of 54 works by 34 artists ranging from the funky and figurative to the quiet and conceptual. This exhibit showcases the artistic legacy of Northern California and the prescient vision of the Davis Art Center’s original permanent collection committee, a group of volunteers who shared a passion for art and a sharp eye for artistic talent. Through their tireless efforts acquiring works by artists who were relatively unknown at the time, the committee created what would become an impressive collection that reveals Davis’ role as a major player in a significant art historical period.

This special exhibition is a major survey of artwork by the founding members of the Bay Area Figurative Movement. Artists included are David Park, Elmer Bischoff and Richard Diebenkorn, as well as Joan Brown, William Theophilus Brown, Frank Lobdell, Manuel Neri, Nathan Oliveira, James Weeks and Paul Wonner. This exhibition examines the time period of 1950-1965, when a group of artists in the San Francisco Bay Area decided to pursue figurative painting during the height of Abstract Expressionism. San Francisco was the regional center for a group of artists who were working in a style sufficiently independent from the New York School, and can be credited with having forged a distinct variant on what was the first American style to have international importance. The Bay Area Figurative movement, which grew out of and was in reaction to both West Coast and East Coast varieties of Abstract Expressionism, was a local phenomenon and yet was responsive to the most topical national tendencies.

  • Rose Mandel: a Sense of Abstraction November 15, 2017 – January 13, 2018
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Rose Mandel: A Sense of Abstraction November 15, 2017 – January 13, 2018 Deborah Bell Photographs is honored to present the first solo exhibition in a New York gallery of work by the American photographer Rose Mandel (1910-2002). Comprising some 30 rare, and often unique, vintage prints from her archive, the exhibition will feature portraits, close-up abstracted views of nature, and dynamic seascapes made between 1946 and 1972. The exhibition's title, A Sense of Abstraction, refers to the primary visual and psychological currents of Mandel's work: symbolism, surrealism and abstract expressionism. Although Mandel's photographs were published and exhibited in her lifetime, and her work received renewed appreciation in the 1990s, she rarely sold her prints. Mandel is closely associated with the well-established modernist tradition in Northern California photography as represented by Edward Weston, Ansel Adams and Imogen Cunningham, yet her nature studies and abstract landscapes also belong to the broader American landscape tradition exemplified by Minor White, Walter Chappell, Harry Callahan, Ralph Eugene Meatyard, and others who explored complex symbolic meanings in their images of the natural world. In 2013, eleven years after her death, Mandel received her first retrospective exhibition. Held at the de Young Museum in San Francisco, and organized by Guest Curator Susan Ehrens, an independent photography historian, the accompanying catalogue represents the first monograph on Mandel's work. In his introductory essay, Julian Cox, Founding Director of the Department of Photography at the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, praises the "retrospective 'rediscovery'" of Mandel's oeuvre. Born in Poland, Mandel studied art in Paris, and child psychology with Jean Piaget in Switzerland.

He studied piano at Yale and graduated in 1941, at which time he was drafted into World War II. Following his discharge, he studied painting at the University of California, Berkeley and moved between the artistic centers of New York City and Paris. During these travels, Brown met a large number of accomplished artists, including Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, Alberto Giacometti, and Willem de Kooning. His growing success, as well as his continued relationships with other talented artists, all contributed to Brown becoming recognized as a prominent member of the Bay Area Figurative Movement. A product of its time Brown’s friend and gallerist, Thomas Reynolds, said of him: “Theophilus Brown was one of those rare artists who was successful at every stage of his career...” In the 1950s, Brown gained national attention when Life Magazine featured three of his paintings of football players. This caught the attention of Felix Landau, who owned a Los Angeles gallery and began exhibiting Brown’s work.

Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Nathan Oliveira, dated May 11, 2007.
