Last Friday evening, the twelfth installment in the Gestures Exhibition Series opened with a public reception at the MF annex gallery located at 1414 Monterey Street. Openings are always a great time as artists and MF staff get a chance to chat with visitors and members over fabulous food + drink and amazing artwork. Friday's event was no different, with several hundred art lovers turning out to celebrate the beginning of the show's run. Gestures: An Exhibition of Small Site-Specific Works runs through June 21, 2009
A big THANKS to Haley Harned for shooting the awesome photos of the opening below.
Its quite obvious from the photos that if you haven't been or don't plan to go, you are completely missing out. You need to be able to stand, look around enter the work and appreciate it - something unfortunately not possible through a computer screen.
Couldn't agree more, Christine! As with everything MF, the experience is being within the artwork. These photos are definitely beautiful, but no replacement for being in the presence of the pieces themselves.
Thanks so much for commenting and posting about the show on your site!
