#7 MAG Galleries (3931 18th St):
All In The Mix with Livia Stein, Paintings, Prints and Clay
According to Livia Stein, "My work is about processing my life in relation to my reality. It is about seeking meaning between people and other species on earth and overcoming my view of life’s magically hidden absurdity. A view which contains no certainty, no absolute truth and the myth that good always wins out. This viewpoint often brings humor and whimsey to the mix. I am engaged in an ambiguous situation- narrative looking for clues, resulting in many self portraits. I work by doing, following the painting and surprising myself as to the outcome. " |

#11 Welcome Castro (525 Castro St):
Mike Marcus: “I am a printmaker working at the intersection of linocuts, monotypes, and serigraphs out of my home studio in San Francisco, California.
My work explores the subject matter of male eroticism and intimacy through a fine art medium and is at once an irreverent celebration of who and what I find beautiful, and simultaneously an indignant political rebuke to the cultural taboos surrounding homosexuality.
My art serves as a reclaiming.” |
