The SF Camerawork 2024 Member’s Open

November 2, 2024 — January 10, 2025

Celebrating the work of SFC’s artist membership community. A sort of collective curatorial experiment, we began the show with blank walls. The opening reception was replaced with a ‘hanging party’ in which members brought in one of their own works to show salon style. The exhibition continued to grow over its course in an ongoing open call.

Charles Lee: sweat + dirt

November 7, 2023 —  February 3, 2024

A document and investigation of contemporary Black rodeo culture and cowfolk in the United States. The works and images in sweat + dirt were made in Louisiana, California’s Southern and Central Valley, and the San Francisco Bay Area. Through Lee’s project, we are presented with contemporary evidence by which we can trace the multi-racial history and widespread geographic reach of country life, and the role of Black people in the development of U.S. western culture.
