FAX Special Project @ the Main Gallery

  

Mysterious Object at Noon (Oh Distance Has A Way of Making Love Understandable)

Conceived and organized by Colter Jacobsen

Ongoing with an event on Thursday, June 14, noon
Location: SFAC Main Gallery, 401 Van Ness Avenue  

 

Colter Jacobsen invites you to come join artists and poets to engage with the phrase, "Mysterious Object at Noon" and "Oh Distance Has a Way of Making Love Understandable." (Or ignore these phrases completely!). You will participate in an exquisite corpse by faxing over distances with other artists and writers while enjoying a slice of pizza and a glass of lemonade.

Located in the heart of San Francisco's Civic Center, the San Francisco Arts Commission Galleries make contemporary art accessible to broad audiences through curated exhibitions that both reflect our regional diversity and position Bay Area visual art production within an international contemporary art landscape. By commissioning new works, collaborating with arts and community organizations and supporting artist's projects, the SFAC Galleries' programs provide new and challenging opportunities for contemporary art to engage with a civic dialogue. The SFAC Galleries were founded in 1970 and are the exhibitions program of the San Francisco Arts Commission, the arts agency of the City and County of San Francisco.
