SF Camerawork × Haines Gallery are pleased to present Chris McCaw: Double Day, a new solo exhibition by the celebrated Bay Area photographer. The first of two collaborative exhibitions presented in SF Camerawork’s gallery at Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture, the show centers on an ambitious, large-scale work that exemplifies the artist’s singular approach to image-making.
SF Camerawork has played an important role early in McCaw's artistic development, providing support and visibility at pivotal moments in their careers. This exhibition honors that history while underscoring the organization’s lasting impact on photographers working in and around San Francisco for over fifty years.
