Transplanted

Curator. San Francisco Arts Commission Galleries. Main Gallery + Grove St. + Performance. September 2010 - January 2011.

Artists: Pawel Kruk, Primitivo Suarez-Wolfe, and Richard T. Walker

Transplanted asks the questions: How long do you have to live in the Bay Area to be considered a local artist? How quickly do new arrivals influence our cultural landscape and help establish defining regional aesthetics? How quickly does the Bay Area influence the artistic production of newcomers? This exhibition celebrates three accomplished artists who have lived in the Bay Area for less than two years with a Main Gallery exhibition by Richard T. Walker, a Grove Street installation by Primitivo Suarez-Wolfe, and a performance by Pawel Kruk, each creating new work that reflects on how living in the Bay Area has influenced their artistic practice.

Transplanted was presented as part of the SFAC Galleries 40th Anniversary season.
