Paintings from the Interior is a survey exhibition of painting in and about the inland region of southern California. With a specific geographic boundary east of Kellogg Hill in Los Angeles County to the low and high deserts of San Bernardino and Riverside counties, the exhibit focuses on both the literal landscape and the conceptual imagery of place. The exhibition is curated by Andi Campognone.

Artists featured in this exhibit are Dawn Arrowsmith, Quinton Bemiller, Diane Best, Jorin Bossen, Justin Bower, Gary Brewer, Kimberly Brooks, Terry Chacon, Gerald Clarke, Hollis Cooper, Cosme Cordova, Alex Couwenberg, Chick Curtis, Joshua Dildine, Steven Hampton, Salomon Huerta, Brian Johnson, Gary Lang, Stevie Love, Aline Mare, Kevin Stewart Magee, Donna Morin, Ruth Pastine, Thomas Pathe, Andrea Patrie, Roland Reiss, David C.

Stuart Sandfords photographs aren't meant to be sensual, but with references ranging from Greek gods to Nan Goldin it sometimes happens. 

As Susan Guerrero tells it, her parents’ desire to move their growing family out of New York City and into the suburbs brought them to New Canaan in 1951, where for a sum of $10,000 — which was all they could afford — they found a two-acre spot upon which to put down roots.

"Where the family settled was an important part of its story. But for Pedro E. Guerrero, this rural burb and its surrounding bedroom communities had a profound impact on his artistic legacy. In his proverbial backyard, a handful of architects was creating a mid-century modern look that came to define a golden era in American architecture. Bold and innovative, it shaped homes, churches, offices, ice rinks and apartment complexes.

Guerrero captured it all through the lens of his camera and brought it to the world.

The intersection between the personal and professional life of Pedro E. Guerrero can be traversed through Dec. 9 at the New Canaan Historical Society, which is presenting the exhibition “Pedro E. Guerrero: The Photographer of Mid-Century New Canaan,” along with Edward Cella Art and Architecture, the Los Angeles gallery that represents Guerrero’s estate."

If you’re already familiar with R. Buckminster Fuller, you won’t learn much from the current exhibition at Edward Cella Art & Architecture. It’s not much of an introduction, either, but still presents an opportunity to reflect on the legacy of this visionary thinker.

As one of the most sought-after architectural photographers of the 1950s, Pedro E. Guerrero had an eye that most shutterbugs only dream of. 

Perhaps known best for his closeness with Frank Lloyd Wright, which helped him get unprecedented access to the artist’s work, Guerrero also worked with notable artists such as Alexander Calder and Louise Nevelson.   

A new exhibit of the photographer’s work is on display at the New Canaan Historical Society, showcasing many of the photographs that he took in the area. Pedro E. Guerrero: The Photographer of Mid-Century New Canaan includes 35 never-before-seen black-and-white photos as well as memorabilia from throughout Guerrero’s life.

San Francisco’s FOG Design+Art fair has announced the galleries exhibiting at its sixth edition, which is slated to run from January 17 through 20 next year. Some 53 international galleries are set to sell their wares at the Fort Mason Center for Arts and Culture. Among them are 12 galleries that haven’t participated in the fair before, including such blue-chip outfits as Petzel, Andrew Kreps Gallery, Anton Kern Gallery, Perrotin, and Hauser & Wirth.

GEORGE LEGRADY | INTRODUCTORY PRESENTATION BY BRYANT AUSTIN

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2018 AT 7:30 PM 

SAN FRANCISCO ART INSTITUTE OSHER LECTURE HALL

SAN FRANCISCO, CA

George Legrady will present a selection of his photographic-based works as they evolved from analog to digital, from the still-image to computational-generated interactive digital media installations.

Global, networked, repeatable, cross-material, easy to inhabit with or without a family, to drive on a road, to be made sliding on water through some good rowing: when it comes to Richard Buckminster Fuller,  it is hard to use such reductive words as world. The subject of Fuller’s research may be better defined as a system.
