GRSF Power Punch – Group Show 4/2/11 – 4/24/11

[nggallery id=31]

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – Group Art Show Opening  Power Punch
April 2 – April 24, 2011

Reception: Saturday, April 2, 6:30 – 10:00 p.m.  GRSF 618 Shrader Street San Francisco, CA 94117 gr-sf.com 415-876-4773  In conjunction with guest curators Mark Todd and Esther Pearl Watson, Giant Robot is proud to host Power Punch.

For this show, artists were given identical 8″ x 8″ panels to work from. As a result, the art itself becomes the focus–and not the material it is created on. The unified presentation will explore both the vocabulary of and connections between today’s working artists.

Artists, who were chosen not only on the merit of their own particular work but also how they relate to one another, will include the following:
